The substrates materials
employed for overmolding were PP, ABS, PC/ABS, polyester, Nylon and POM.
These TPEs
have exhibited good adhesion on various substrates including PP, PS, HIPS, PMMA, PC, PET, ABS,
PC/ABS and Copolyester.
TPE-1A adhesion values overmolded onto PP, PC and ABS over a wide range of melt
temperatures.

HOW VERSAFLEX TPEs MAKE THE DIFFERENCE IN PORTABLE SPEAKERS APPLICATIONS
GASKETS
Water and Dust Protection
- Tight housing seals with no leakage over time
Reduced Manufacturing Costs
- Eliminates sourcing and assembly steps required of
O-rings by overmolding directly onto the substrate;
strong adhesion to PC & ABS
- Faster cycle times than silicone or TPU
Design Freedom
- Injection molding TPEs in gaskets enables
complex designs in which simple O-rings would be
challenging to assemble
SPEAKER SKINS
Durable Look and Feel
- Silky feel soft touch
- Long lasting aesthetics with abrasion and UV
resistance
Reduced Manufacturing Costs
- Eliminates sourcing and assembly steps
required of silicone skins by overmolding
directly onto the substrate; strong
adhesion to PC & ABS
- Faster cycle times than silicone or TPU
Design Freedom
- Overmolding TPE removes the need for
mechanical interlocks and primers to get
silicone materials to adhere to substrates

Avoid the use styrenic materials – Low shrinkage
PP grades provide an ABS alternative.
Utilize existing molds – Replace current ABS
solutions with low shrinkage PP grades and utilize
your existing molds

Most Versaflex™, Dynaflex™ and OnFlex™ materials (and Versalloy™ TPV alloys) are
suitable for two-shot or insert molding onto a PP (and in some cases, PE) substrate.
Specific Versaflex OM grades have been specially formulated to bond to PC, ABS,
nylon 6/6, PC/ABS, and PPO.
The Versollan™ OM series are TPU alloys specifically
designed for thin-wall overmolding (both insert and two-shot molding) onto PC, ABS, and
PC/ABS substrates.
