Thermoset adhesive having susceptor particles therein
First Claim
1. A bonding interlayer for joining flexible thermoplastic tubing with a molded thermoplastic fluid transporting component, the bonding interlayer comprising a mixture of an adhesive polymer material and a sufficient amount of susceptor particles to cause localized heating of the mixture and adjacent surfaces of the flexible thermoplastic tubing and the molded thermoplastic fluid transporting component when the mixture is exposed to electromagnetic radiation, so that a leak-free joint is formed by heat sealing between the flexible thermoplastic tubing and the molded thermoplastic fluid transporting component.
