  1. Solvent Bonding Polycarbonate Craig E. Nelson - Consultant Engineer

  2. Solvent Bonding - Polycarbonate Like acrylics, polycarbonates can stress crack with certain types of solvents. Methylene chloride is a very fast solvent cement for polycarbonate. This solvent is recommended only for temperate climate zones and when bonding small areas. A mixture of 60% methylene chloride and 40% ethylene chloride is slower drying and the most common solvent cement used for polycarbonate parts. Ethylene chloride is recommended alone in very hot climates. These solvents may be bodied with 1-5% by weight polycarbonate resin where gap-filling characteristics are required. A joining pressure of 200 psi is generally recommended.

  3. Solvent Bonding - Polycarbonate Also: MDC (methylene dichloride). Add 10% glacial acetic for best joint appearance
