As a member of the American Chemistry Council, we have adopted Responsible Care® Guiding Principles and the Process Safety Management Practices to continuously guide our efforts to improve safety performance.

Overmolding Specifying a substrate thickness of at least double that of the overmolded layer of TPEs will prevent warpage caused by this difference.  Another consideration is that recycling either material once it’s overmolded, whether cohesively or with adhesives, can be a challenge.
