摘要
The effects of weld geometry on the weld strength of thermoplastic resins, as determined by tests on vibration welds of bisphenol-A polycarbonate and poly(butylene terephthalate), are evaluated by tests on three weld geometries: butt welds, butt welds between specimens of different thicknesses, and T-welds. It is shown that only butt welds provide a true measure of the inherent weldability of resins. (C) 2000 Kluwer Academic Publishers.
