  • Organic adhesives are preferably used in the context of the present invention, which can either be physically setting adhesives or chemically reacting adhesives or a combination of the two.
  • the physically setting adhesives which can be used for the purposes of the present invention include, for example, adhesives, contact adhesives or hot melt adhesives present in solution or dispersion.
  • chemically reacting adhesives e.g. Adhesives are used which impart sufficient adhesion of the surfaces to be bonded to one another without the elimination of volatile constituents.
  • adhesives which achieve the required adhesion by eliminating volatile constituents.
  • the adhesives can be both cold-curing and heat-retaining, have a thermoplastic, thermoset or elastomeric final state and can be used in one or two or more components.
  • hot melt adhesives are used, the softening point of which is approximately 60 ° C. to approximately 120 ° C.
  • hot melt adhesives are used, the softening point of which is approximately 80 ° C to approximately 100 ° C.
  • hot-melt adhesives are used whose softening point is approximately 80 ° C. to approximately 100 ° C. and the adhesive is based on polyesters, polyamides or polycarbonates.
  • the adhesive is applied to the thermoplastic composite material in a hot process, for example by extruder application with a slot die or RoÜercoater application.
  • the resin can also be applied by powder application followed by thermal sintering. These processes are cold-curing processes.
  • hot melt adhesives are applied between about 50 to about 100 gm 2 by means of extruder slot die application.
