The present invention relates to a method for welding two polyamide plastics using a primer, the primer containing at least one polymer synthesized from at least one maleic anhydride or maleic anhydride derivative. The invention also relates to correspondingly welded products.

Disclosed is a method for welding a polyolefin plastic and a plastic based on at least one polymer containing carbonyl groups, using a primer which contains, in relation to the proportion of polymer, at least 20 wt. % of a polymer that comprises maleic anhydride or maleic anhydride derivative units. Also disclosed are correspondingly welded products.

A method of attaching a thermoplastic-based workpiece and a metal workpiece involves the use of a metal reaction coating. The metal reaction coating is applied over a base metal substrate of the metal workpiece such that the metal reaction coating faces and contacts the thermoplastic-based workpiece when the two workpieces are assembled in overlapping fashion. To attach the workpieces at their faying interface, an energy source such as, for example, a laser beam or an electric arc, is directed against the metal workpiece to create a zone of concentrated heat that at least warms up the metal reaction coating and melts a portion of the thermoplastic-based workpiece. Such heated activity at the faying interface promotes interfacial chemical bonding between the thermoplastic-based workpiece and the metal workpiece that contributes to an enhanced attachment between the workpieces.

It is provided an electronic control device including a resin molded body, a metal body, and an electronic component, wherein the resin molded body and a main surface of the metal body are bonded, and at least a part of a side surface continuous to the main surface of the metal body is in contact with a side contact portion provided in the resin molded body.

A pair of bonded substrates having a first substrate of a first material, a second substrate of the first material, and an adhesive bonding the first substrate to the second substrate, wherein the adhesive has chemically linked compatibilizing particles compatible with the first and second substrates. A composition of matter has an adhesive having a chemically linked particle network forming a bond between a first substrate and a second substrate, wherein compatibilizing particles in the particle network are compatible with the first and second substrates. A method of joining two structures of identical materials includes preparing first and second structures to expose bare material, applying an adhesive to the bare material on the first and second structures, the adhesive containing compatibilizing particles compatible with the material and the preparing allows interaction between the material and the compatibilizing particles, and curing the adhesive.

A joint between an insulative sidewall of a medical electrical lead subassembly and an underlying fluoropolymer layer includes an interfacial layer. A first section of the interfacial layer is bonded to the fluoropolymer layer and is formed by a thermoplastic fluoropolymer; a second section of the interfacial layer extends adjacent the first section and is bonded to the insulative sidewall. The insulative sidewall, of the subassembly, and the second section, of the interfacial layer, are each formed from a material that is not a fluoropolymer. A recess is formed in the first section of the interfacial layer and the second section of the interfacial layer extends within the recess.

A laser welded structure is formed by laser welding together a resin molded body formed from a thermoplastic polymer alloy containing a crystalline resin and an amorphous resin and a metal body made of a metal. A glass transition temperature of the amorphous resin is lower than a melting start temperature of the crystalline resin.

A tube used or medical or other purposes is concentrically bonded to an inner lining tube by sequentially inserting a core within the inner lining tube, creating an adhesive layer on the outer surface of the inner lining tube, inserting the inner lining tube and core into the lumen of the outer tube, and then activating the adhesive to bond the inner tune to the outer tube before removing the core.

A CFRP material with an Al alloy sheet attached to or a CFRTP material with an Al alloy sheet attached to is prepared by joining an Al alloy sheet with a CFRP material or a CFRTP material by adhesion or by injection molding. The surface of this Al alloy sheet and a surface of metal material such as Ti, etc., are subjected to chemical treatment. After this chemical treatment, the CFRP material with an Al alloy sheet attached to or the CFRTP material with an Al alloy sheet attached to and the metal material are inserted into a metallic mold for injection molding so as to have a gap therebetween. High crystalline thermoplastic resin is injected into this gap to join the metal material with the Al alloy sheet, thus obtaining a laminated composite.
