Embodiment 1

[0025] A method of laser welding plastic parts, with molecular weight 50000g / mol, thickness is 0.2mm polycaprolactone (T m ≈60°C) welding as an example, the method includes the following steps:

[0026] (1) Brush 10μl / cm on the area where the two plastic parts are to be welded 2 Butt the joints and keep the joints to be welded in close contact;

[0027] (2) Use a laser with a wavelength of 1470nm to irradiate the welding area, adjust the output power of the laser to 0.5W, the welding area will start to melt after 5s, and form a melting surface with a spot size after 10s, then turn off the laser, cool and solidify naturally to form a welding area, and complete the welding .

[0028] Cut the samples before and after welding into dumbbell shapes respectively, and carry out the tensile test. The samples before the test are as follows: image 3 as shown, Figure 4 is the stress-strain curve of the sample before and after welding at room temperature.

[0029] Depend on image ...

Embodiment 2

[0032] A kind of method of laser welding plastic parts, take molecular weight 50000g / mol, thickness be the polycaprolactone (PCL) plastic part welding of 1mm as example, described method comprises the following steps:

[0033] (1) Spray 10μl / cm on the area where the two plastic parts are to be welded 2 water, and keep the joints to be welded in close contact;

[0034] (2) Use a laser with a wavelength of 1910nm to irradiate the welding area, and adjust the output power of the laser to 0.5W. After 5s, the welding area begins to melt, and after 10s, a melting surface with a spot size is formed. Then turn off the laser, cool and solidify naturally to form a welding area, and complete the welding. .

Embodiment 3

[0036] A method of laser welding plastic parts, with molecular weight 80000g / mol, thickness is 0.2mm polycaprolactone (T m ≈60°C) welding of plastic parts as an example, the method includes the following steps:

[0037] (1) Wipe 6 μl / cm on the area where the two plastic parts are to be welded 2 water, and keep the joints to be welded in close contact;

[0038] (2) Use a laser with a wavelength of 1470nm to irradiate the welding area, and adjust the output power of the laser to 0.5W. After 5s, the welding area begins to melt, and after 10s, a melting surface with a spot size is formed. Then turn off the laser, cool and solidify naturally to form a welding area, and complete the welding. .

Abstract

The invention discloses a plastic laser welding method. The method comprises the following steps: (1) applying water to a to-be-welded region of to-be-welded plastic so as to keep the to-be-welded region of the to-be-welded plastic in close contact; (2) irradiating the to-be-welded region with a laser to complete welding of plastic. Water is used as a solder (a photothermal conversion carrier) without doping of any other light absorption filler or pigment, so that green, environment friendliness, no toxicity and harmlessness are truly achieved; the method has great application value in fieldsof food packaging, medical devices, welding of precision and complicated plastic parts and the like.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of laser welding, in particular to a method for welding plastics by laser. Background technique [0002] Laser welding of plastics has become a new force in the field of welding. To apply laser welding to plastics, the material must absorb the laser light. The general laser transmission welding method generally applies a suitable light absorber at the contact surface of the two parts to be welded or pre-mixes a suitable filler or pigment in the lower welded part as a light absorber, and then completes the welding. As a commonly used light absorber, carbon black has a high light-to-heat conversion efficiency, but it also makes the welding surface or weldment have to be "stained"; on the other hand, some non-dyed commercial clean light absorbers Or the price is high or there are security risks, and its application field is subject to certain restrictions.
