Most Dynaflex® (Styrenic block copolymer TPE), Versaflex® (polar modified alloys) and Versalloy® (TPV alloy compounds are suitable for two-shot or insert molding with a polypropylene (PP). As an example, a styrenic TPE or an olefinic TPE molded on to polypropylene as the substrate can have an interface. TPEs in Table 4 are styrenic materials where as TPVs are the dynamic vulcanizates of polypropylene and EPDM.

Our long glass fiber reinforced products range from 20-70% fiber content (by weight) across a variety of resin systems ranging from polypropylene to higher performance engineering polymers such as PEEK.
