As such, it provides comprehensive information on material and process characteristics as well as applications regarding plastic laser welding. The first part of this practical book introduces the structure and physical properties of plastics, before discussing the interaction of material and radiation in the NIR and IR spectral range. This is followed by an overview of the physical foundations of laser radiation and laser sources Laser weldingPlasticsWeldingLaser welding.PlasticsWelding.668.41Klein Rolf916505MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910130960703321Laser welding of plastics2054501UNINA
