Although a very durable material, metal can present a challenge as it can become slippery when wet. Achieving the non-slip handle Victorinox envisioned required a soft material for the new grip areas that would chemically bond to a rigid polymer underneath. Avient provided product development assistance and testing, and ultimately delivered customized materials that met strict requirements for durability.

It wanted to avoid the brittleness, cracking and resulting product recalls and added costs that happen when the material is put in contact with harsh disinfectants. The manufacturer was struggling to find a replacement material with excellent chemical resistance and a high flame retardant rating. During stress testing, materials were exposed for seven days at either 1.0% strain or 1.5% strain.

This is where our materials and design engineers can help. Material selection is just the beginning. Processing conditions can cause material properties to shift from the values stated in the information.

July 19, 2007 Overmolding Technology Over-Molding utilizes the injection molding process to apply one material [Over-Mold] onto another material [Substrate]. Multiple Material Molding Multiple Material Molding is also sometimes called multicolor or two-shot injection molding. Matching the surface energy on both materials is critical for building specific interactions between materials.

One angle is to offer chemical foaming agents that help reduce plastic material use. The products help reduce material use by up to 20% depending on part geometry and wall thickness. Processing conditions can cause material properties to shift from the values stated in the information.
