Versaflex™ HC Thermoplastic Elastomers OnFlex™ Thermoplastic Elastomers reSound™ BIO Thermoplastic Elastomers

To enhance the performance in the end use application and marketability of such consumer products the use of a thermoplastic elastomers as an overmold, onto the engineering plastic has continued to grow. This is achieved by molding a soft skin of thermoplastic elastomer over a hard engineering plastic. We have modified ASTM D903 method for plastics to evaluate the adhesion of soft TPE onto rigid thermoplastic.
