Abstract
In a structure for joining a first plastic part and a second plastic part, the first plastic part is composed of at least one resin such as polyamide (PA), polybutylene terephthalate (PBT), polyacetal (POM), polyethylene terephthalate (PET), or polyphenylene sulfide (PPS), while the second plastic part is composed of high-density polyethylene (HDPE). Between the two parts, a metamorphic polyethylene layer exhibiting a good joining property for both the first and second plastic parts is interposed to join the parts.
Claims3
A joining structure comprising:
- a first plastic part composed of at least one thermoplastic resin of polyamide (PA), polybutylene terephthalate (PBT), polyacetal (POM), polyethylene terephthalate (PET), or polyphenylene sulfide (PPS);
- a second plastic part composed of at least high-density polyethylene (HDPE);
- a metamorphic polyethylene layer that comes in contact with both the first plastic part and the second plastic part, for joining the first plastic part and the second plastic part;
- wherein the first plastic part is at least a part of a fuel cutoff valve casing, and the second plastic part is at least a part of a mounting portion of a plastic fuel tank.
