Polyethylene glue is an 'urban myth'. Modern polyethlene materials are purposely so chemical resistant that no glue has yet been made that will bond them ! Polyethylene pipes are bonded by 'hot air' welding, not by any glues. They can be held together by contact adhesives, but the joint is very weak and will not hold even 30psi of water or air pressure.

What will super glue not do?

How do you permanently bond a polyethylene tarp to another polyethylene tarp using a cold glue?
Double sided foam tape is a permanent bonding solution as a cold glue alternative for a polyethylene tarp adhering to another polyethylene tarp. There is no solvent that has been specifically made as a cold glue for polyethylene but are solutions as alternatives.
What will glue high density polyethylene to itself?
High density polyethylene foam. Use heat. Non foam plastic use super glue.
Is pva glue the same as polyethylene glue?
No, there are big differences in the chemical composition.
What is used to bond polyethylene to itself?
Hot welding with a polyethylene stick is the only way. No glue has yet been made that will effectively adhere to polyethylene.

How to glue polycarbonate and polypropylene together?

What plastics does epoxy glue?
Epoxy will glue almost all plastics with the exception of the 'slippery' ones like polypropylelen, polyethylene, PEX, CPVC, and similar.
What can you use to glue wood to polyethylene?
Polyethylene is one of those very slippery new plastics that nobody has developed a suitable glue for. -In plumbing use, it's 'hot air welded' and even in simple pipe application thre is no transfer cement or glue that will melt it. If I had your problem, I would try to find a suitable 'mechanical' method -possibly screws or rivets.
What glue is good for glueing height dencity polyethylene?
That's HIGH DENSITY, or HDPE in the plumbing business. Pro-Poly is one of the very few choices for this. The fact is that the group of olefins (polyethylene based plastics), which include LDPE, HDPE, and UHMW, are so chemical resistant that modern science has not invented a solvent glue to bond these plastics.
Is super glue safe on food containers?
It is safe when dried,- but it may not work on many food containers, especially those made with polyethylene.
