ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A method of joining together a sheet or sheets of an organic polymer which is not normally melt-processable e.g. polytetrafluoroethylene, the method comprising the steps of (a) contacting a strip of melt-processable organic polymer, e.g. fluorinated ethylene/propylene copolymer, with the faces of the sheet of sheets in the region of juxtaposed edges of the sheet or sheets, (b) stitching the strip to the sheet or sheets by means of a thread, and (c) heating the strip in order to fuse the strip and/or the thread to seal the holes created by the stitching step, and, where the strip has sheet or sheets, in order to fuse the strip the sheet or sheets, in order to fuse the strip to the faces of the sheet or sheets. Preferably, the thread is of a melt-processable fluorine-containing polymer and a gaze is placed in contact with and stitched to the faces of the sheets opposite from the faces contacted with the strips of melt-processable organic polymer. The joined sheets, when porous, may be used as diaphragms in electrolytic cells.
