GLS recommended a Versalloy™ thermoplastic vulcanizate (TPV) alloy for excellent surface quality, easy processing with excellent flow, and high tear strength. It can also be easily colored for excellent aesthetics.

To meet the manufacturer’s goals for the mouse grip, a clear TPE overmolding material, GLS Versaflex™, was formulated for improved ergonomics and comfort, strong chemical resistance, and excellent bonding to the ABS substrate. It also boasts excellent chemical resistance to common substances like cosmetics and cleaners, as well as foods such as olive oil and mustard. It offers excellent surface engineering properties such as low wear, reduced friction, high lubricity, and no squeak.

At room temperature, the so-called glass transition temperature causes a permanent rotation of the macromolecules, ensuring a controlled release of the various insecticides to the fiber surface and, therefore, permanent and consistent protection.

In doing so, we innovate solutions that help our customers overcome their challenges or capitalize on opportunities provided by the fast-changing world and secular trends. 

See how engineering can validate your design so you can expect optimal manufacturing quality and application performance.

From dawn to dusk, consumers come into contact with so many products.

By most estimates, consumers experience roughly 3,000 ads per day, so they can become desensitized to typical marketing messages.

So how can you prevent this premature wear?
