i need join two polymers, one is a phenolic acrylic and the second one is what i need to define. I think a type of expanded polyethylene will go, but i dont know if all polymers whith no polar solvent are able for this.
Polyethylene and polypropylene are non-polar polymers insoluble in ethanol and formaldehyde, making them suitable candidates to join with phenolic acrylic. Their chemical resistance and compatibility depend on the bonding method rather than solvent solubility alone.
Polymers like expanded polyethylene are insoluble in ethanol due to their nonpolar nature. Joining phenolic acrylic with such nonpolar polymers may require compatibilizers or surface treatments to improve adhesion and compatibility.
Polyolefins, polytetrafluoroethylene, polyvinylidene fluoride, polybenzoxazine, epoxy resins, and bakelite are polymers having a non-polar nature, and it is best for you.
