Process and mechanism of ultrasonic welding of thermoplastics

Ultrasonic welding of thermoplastics (UWT) is a complicated joining process in which many factors affect the welding process and weld quality. Although it is widely used for fusion bonding of thermoplastics, the mechanism of this joining process has not been well understood. Existing knowledge about...
