Abstract Adhesive effect of polyethylene gels on the molded polyethylene by heating with microwaves has been investigated. Polyethylene gels in polar organic solvents such aso-xylene, chlorobenzene,o-dichlorobenzene,m-dichlorobenzene, 1,1,1,2-tetrachloroethane, and 1,1,2,2-tetrachloroethane were used as adhesives. All of these gels showed adhesive effect when heated with microwaves. In particular, the gels in 1,1,2,2-tetrachloroethane showed such strong adhesion that polyethylene plates of 3 mm in thickness and 20 mm in width gave rise to necking by heating for 8 min in a 500 W (2450 MHz) microwave oven.
