As shown in figure 2, in high shear rate regimes, the viscosity is at the lower end of the spectrum which helps the TPE to flow into and fill the thin-walled sections commonly encountered during overmolding. mailto:info@glscorp.com http://www.glscorp.com/ TPE chemistry and the type of engineering plastic play a critical role in influencing wettability. These TPEs are inherently non-hygroscopic and do not require drying, making them cost-efficient.
