Coated with Bondcoat ™ Adhesion Enhancing Coating to improve adhesion between fibers and substrates without impacting performance, our Belt and Hose products outperform untreated fibers and are designed to meet the unique requirements of these demanding applications.
Improve adhesion between fibers and substrates without impacting performance

Further, they needed a low-wear, low-
friction material for the mouse feet.
To meet the manufacturer’s goals for the mouse grip,
a clear TPE overmolding material, GLS Versaflex™, was
formulated for improved ergonomics and comfort,
strong chemical resistance, and excellent bonding to
the ABS substrate.
A technical support team at Avient
GLS Thermoplastic Elastomers conducted extensive
compatibility testing to confirm proper bonding and
overmolding onto the rigid substrate.
https://www.avient.com/sites/default/files/2020-11/controller-grip-case-study.pdf
The material is also complicated to
process, which can increase costs further.
It requires a
pre-mixing step, a long curing phase and an adhesive
to bond to the plastic substrate.
Ultimately, the company selected a Versaflex™ OM
overmolding grade that bonded tightly to the
polycarbonate (PC) substrate of the grips without the
need for adhesives.
