Abstract

The goal of this paper is to provide the basic fundamentals of hot gas plastic welding technique. Use of polymers in industries is increasing in order to reduce overall weight of products. Polymers are generally joined by mechanical fastening, adhesive bonding and welding. This article shows that welding of polymers is still a growing research and development area particularly hot gas welding technique because of increasing aspiration for environment friendly technologies and light weight material. This review will be beneficial for young researchers working in this area and this technique opens the door for further investigation for improving weld quality.
