During the injection-molding step, the TPE insert forms a strong bond with the substrate, such as polypropylene or polyethylene, used for the container closure. Traditional vulcanized rubber products require application of adhesives to bond to the closure, and this adhesive bond has a greater potential for failure than the chemical bond formed between a TPE and  polymer substrate. Versaflex HC grades give customers confidence that the materials will comply with regulatory requirements.

Soft, flexible TPEs can be easily overmolded onto hard substrates. Specialized chemistries enable TPEs to adhere to many different plastic substrates, including PP, polycarbonate (PC), acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS), PC/ABS, copolyester, polyamide, and polystyrene.
