Lastly, our design capabilities ensure that the application is designed perfectly for the specific end use. Our exceptional polymer scientists and design engineers are integral to their product development process. Design times can be less than three days for colorants.

Design, functionality, asthetics, performance needs and value addition have opened the rigid substrate selection from commodity plastics to various engineering thermoplastics and their alloys. The current paper offers a novel robust TPE material selection for overmolding on to Polyamide. NYLON MOLDING PROCESS Bonding is also affected by mold design and nylon molding conditions.

Device designs are changing to improve high-speed performance and network connectivity to support faster speeds, higher capacity, and lower latencies for customers. These 5G transparent TPEs combine the excellent physical properties, aesthetics and UV resistance qualities of traditional TPEs with lower dielectric constant (Dk) and dissipation factor (Df) performance, resulting in an advanced material solution with less signal degradation for next-generation devices. Processing conditions can cause material properties to shift from the values stated in the information.
