Selected overmolding TPE grades from a family of polar modified styrenic block copolymer compounds commercially available under the trade name VersaflexR with their physical properties are tabulated in Table 1.

We also expanded our product portfolio through the acquisition of specialty companies that have complementary technologies. These specialized polymers offer advantages compared to traditional materials that include design freedom, processability, weight reduction, chemical resistance, flame retardance and lower cost. Our technical and market expertise enables us to expand the performance range and structural properties of traditional engineering-grade thermoplastic resins to meet evolving customer needs.

The impact-modified PA6 grade offers minimized scratch appearance compared to painted plastic and improves corrosion resistance when replacing painted metal parts.

While vehicle doors are typically exposed directly to sunlight only when open, the mats need protection from indirect UV rays that reach the car’s interior when the doors are closed. This specific grade is based on styrene-ethylene butylene-styrene (SEBS), and its 80 Shore A hardness provides desirable toughness.
