Polymer Bonding – Bond what others can not.
• Works on PTFE without sodium etc
• Works on polypropylene, HDPE, LDPE, nylon, silicone rubber, Delrin,
polycarbonate, UHME, FVMQ, etc.
• Eliminates creep & delamination
• Unifies dissimilar materials
• Industrial & R&D applications
Why the Process works so well.
1) Handles Low Surface Energy
Low surface energy materials (like PTFE, HDPE, and polypropylene) naturally resist bonding because adhesives cannot properly “wet out” and grip their surfaces. This is why traditional glues fail on these polymers.
2) Interface Layer Elimination
Traditional repairs rely on layered adhesive systems that create weak boundary layers between materials. Interface layer elimination means the bond becomes a unified structure rather than separate layers that can delaminate or creep over time. With the Process, all layers bcome molecularly integrated.
Moledcular integration prevents moisture penetration, delamination and creep. In other words, the failure points are eliminated.
3) Virgin PTFE Bonding
Virgin PTFE (unetched, untreated) is one of the most difficult materials to bond due to its extremely low surface energy. Virgin PTFE bonding refers to achieving a permanent bond without sodium etching or mechanical surface destruction.
The Polymer Bonded Process not only bonds Virgin PTFE to itself, but also to steel, other metals and other materials.
4) Thermal Conformance
Thermal Conformance is the bond’s ability to expand and contract with temperature changes at the same rate as the substrate — preventing cracking, separation, or stress failure during thermal cycling.
This happens because of sensitivity to heat that all polymers have.
