They provide excellent resistance to heat, oil, creep, and abrasion for durability – which can help reduce the risk and rate of material degradation over time – plus high extrusion speeds and ambient curing for additional processing advantages and efficiencies.

Most GLS styrenic TPEs (Dynaflex and some Versaflex) have fairly high mold shrinkage and cause the overmolding TPE to contract more than the substrate, which can result in warpage or cupping of the substrate part. Due to the tolerance on metal and other non-compressible inserts, it is necessary to include Belleville disc springs (or high tension springs) in the design to prevent flashing of minimal thickness inserts or crushing of oversized inserts. Mechanical interlocks are used in overmolding to improve attachment to the substrate in areas subject to high stress or abrasion.

Resilience™ LS High Reflectance PVC performs on par with metallized plastics, such as polycarbonate (PC) and acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS), and offers higher light reflectance without metallization.
