The unique positioning of the continuous glass fibers within the Polystrand™ material makes the very thin profile of the FlexSpring™ composite insoles possible,” said Gordon. They fit comfortably in most athletic shoes, including racing spikes, with the glass fiber properties providing comfort and performance benefits to the user.

For example, a TPE that can bond to PC does not bond to PP, vice versa. The failure mode is cohesive on PP and adhesive on all other substrates. TPE-1A adhesion values overmolded onto PP, PC and ABS over a wide range of melt temperatures.

This new reSound REC TPE is a 65 Shore A hardness and contains 25 percent PCR content from recycled polypropylene (PP). It is naturally gray, colorable, and suitable for injection molding or overmolding onto PP. Light-weighting solutions that replace heavier traditional materials like metal, glass and wood, which can improve fuel efficiency in all modes of transportation and reduce carbon footprint
