  Polypipe - Heat Fusion and Joining Intro
Butt Fusion – This technique consists of heating the squared ends of two pipes, a pipe and fitting, or two fittings by holding them against a heated plate, removing the plate when the proper melt is obtained, promptly bringing the ends together and allowing the joint to cool while maintaining the appropriate applied force.
Saddle Fusion – This technique involves melting the concave surface of the base of a saddle fitting, while simultaneously melting a matching pattern on the surface of the pipe, bringing the two melted surfaces together and allowing the joint to cool while maintaining the appropriate applied force.
Socket Fusion – This technique involves simultaneously heating the outside surface of a pipe end and the inside of a fitting socket, which is sized to be smaller than the smallest outside diameter of the pipe.

  heat. The Columbia Encyclopedia, Sixth Edition. 2001-05
Heat is commonly expressed in either of two units: the calorie, an older metric unit, and the British thermal unit (Btu), an English unit commonly used in the United States.
The amount of heat needed to raise a unit of mass of the substance one degree of temperature is called the specific heat of the substance.
The amount of heat needed to convert one unit of mass of a substance from a solid to liquid is called the heat of fusion, or latent heat of fusion, of the substance.

 The Science of Heat Fusion Welding
The fundamental of heat fusion welding is to heat two hdpe pipe surfaces to an appropriate temperature, changing the resin's molecular structure to an amorphous (pliable state, and then fuse them together by application of prescribed force until cooling occurs, returning the material to a crystalline state and creating one homogeneous pipe.
The end result is a fusion joint that is as strong or stronger than the pipe itself, and this creates the leak-free joint that is one of the amazing strengths of HDPE pipe.
