The design team had two objectives: improve vibration damping performance of the boot to deliver a better user experience, and streamline manufacturing of the part to reduce system costs. At the time, the boot was injection molded from acrylonitrile-ethylene-styrene (AES) as a standalone part and assembled to the housing separately. Avient’s team recommended the use of overmolding (two-shot injection molding) to integrate the boot with the saw housing, and trialed several products before customizing a grade from its portfolio.

Available in a limitless range of vibrant colors, this technology enables packaging manufacturers to create unlimited combinations of color and gloss to design a brilliant metallic look that demands attention. Compatible with PET and Injection blow molding How can you make the most of color, from design through processing?

Designed to improve driver and passenger safety and comfort, this new leading-edge TPE technology reduces volatile organic compounds (VOCs) by 50 percent and minimizes fogging and odor in interior automotive components.  It can be overmolded onto polyolefin substrates using two-shot injection molding processes.
