For example, a TPE that can bond to PC does not bond to PP, vice versa.
The failure mode is cohesive on PP and adhesive on all other substrates.
TPE-1A adhesion values overmolded onto PP, PC and ABS over a wide range of melt temperatures.

Follow up by purging machine with general purpose PP • Residence time should not exceed 5 minutes for Maxxam FR products • General ventilation is suggested Shut Down • Purge the equipment with a general purpose PP • All tooling and equipment must be free of any residual Maxxam FR upon shut down • Continue generating parts made from the natural PP until clear • Wipe down tool steel with mold cleaner • When using a hot runner system, care must be taken to remove residual product from the manifold MOLD DESIGN RECOMMENDATIONS Cold Slug Wells • Place cold slug wells at the base of the sprue to capture the cold material first emerging from the nozzle • Place cold slug wells at every 90° bend in the runner system • Well depths approximately 2–3 times the diameter of the runner provide best results Draft Angle • Draft angle should be 1/2°–1° per side.

Building on the design concept from SurfCo, Avient conducted additional R&D work to formulate a specialty thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) that could be coextruded with polypropylene (PP) film and meet the high expectations of SurfCo and surfers everywhere.
The customized TPE offered excellent hydrophobic qualities and similar melt strength to PP while still maintaining its key mechanical properties.
