OnFlex™ Thermoplastic Elastomers
Solutions for Automotive Applications
To keep up with industry demands, regulatory
challenges and end-user preferences, it’s imperative
to consider the influence of material specifications
at the beginning of the product development cycle.
Known for offering tight seals and reducing
vibration and noise, certain thermoplastic elastomers
(TPEs), like OnFlex™ grades, may be better suited
for your particular application than the historically
incumbent materials, like general purpose TPEs,
thermoplastic vulcanizates (TPV), and thermoplastic
polyolefins (TPO).

PROCESS OVERVIEW
Polystrand™ advanced thermoplastic composites
combine high strength, unidirectional, continuous
fibers with engineered thermoplastic resins to create
continuous fiber reinforced thermoplastic (CFRTP)
materials that feature exceptional strength-to-weight
ratio and high impact resistance.
Overmolding integrates Polystrand tapes and multi-
ply laminates into traditional thermoplastic molding
processes, such as injection and compression
molding, to create locally-reinforced, molded
components.
Overmolding with Polystrand™ Continuous Fiber
Reinforced Thermoplastic Composites
Processability Meets Performance
Overmolding with Polystrand
CFRTP can enhance the
performance of traditional
thermoplastics or enable metal
replacement in a wide range of
applications.
