This is especially true for long, thin parts or parts where the substrate is thinner than the overmold or if a low modulus substrate material is used. Use a higher modulus substrate material Provide a spring-loaded area if the inserted substrate is a metal or other non-compressible material.

Designed for two- shot injection molding and formulated for the appropriate substrate, these medical-grade TPEs are compatible with rigid PVC, copolyesters, all PC alloys, ABS, TPUs and PEI substrates. Versaflex HC grades provide: • Resistance to common disinfectants • Excellent bonding to Trilliant HC materials and other engineering thermoplastics • Customization to achieve desired haptics and color branding A BINDING CONNECTION With Avient, you can redesign your medical enclosure substrate and improve the ergonomics, comfort and ease of use with overmolded TPEs. Processing conditions can cause material properties to shift from the values stated in the information.

If you do not see your substrate in this table, please contact GLS directly; we can develop a custom TPE that is optimized to bond to your specific substrate. Substrate Material Flow Behavior

Regrind is not an option for many two-material applications. Higher levels of regrind are tolerated in black materials. It is common practice to use two mold temperature controllers while running GLS materials.

These advanced materials will help increase speed to market and design flexibility for 5G base station antenna manufacturers. Both materials can help 5G base station antenna manufactures to streamline their design and process development. PolyOne experts will be onsite to discuss 5G materials and solutions at Stand 9-30 at 5G/IoT Network Expo, July 17-19, 2019 in Tokyo.
