High concentration of waxes in the color concentrate can also decrease adhesion.
When using lifter bar ejection systems, differential thermal expansion of the mold may cause the lifter to jam.
Overmolded parts will take longer to cool because the TPE is only cooled from one side as the plastic substrate has poor thermal conductivity.
