Abstract

A method of joining a thermoplastic material to a thermoset material, and a resultant thermoplastic-thermoset composite formed from such method are provided. At least one of the thermoplastic material and the thermoset material includes particles that melt when the thermoplastic material and the thermoset material are heated during the joining operation. The particles further produce a solid bond between the materials after the particles have solidified in the course of cooling after the joining operation.
