3M Scotch-Weld Acrylic Structural Plastic Adhesive DP8005.
Remarkably, this actually bonds very well to polyolefins. I've been testing a glued drop on PE film, and it has survived months in 180 F water. It's a two part adhesive, 10:1 mix, and it contains micro-beads for gap registration. There's quite a bit of shrinkage upon curing. Uncured, it flows slowly under gravity.

In addition to LiCl's contribution, I would like to add that even though there is sufficient mechanical bond using the DP8005, I have found (through recent testing) that in many applications, due to the micro-beads for gap registration, the bond is succeptable to "leakage" and doesnot promote a "sealable" bond for sealed bond applications of the 3M product.
Using primer "promoters" with some of the various 3:1 to 10:1 epoxies does show promise with polyolefins for a "sealed" bond application.
