AVIENT SOLUTION LEADING EV MANUFACTURER C H A R G I N G G U N G R I P • Good abrasion resistance • Excellent chemical resistance • Nice surface finish • Good bonding with flame retardant PC/ABS • Provided a rubbery touch feel, chemical resistance (including to ethanediol), and better appearance than the incumbent TPV solution • Eliminated a secondary process through two- shot injection molding with good adhesion to PC, ABS, PC/ABS, and copolyester handles • Offered quick technical support to accelerate the product development KEY REQUIREMENTS CHEMICAL RESISTANCE + BONDING LEARN MORE Versaflex™ TPE Formulation Copyright © 2023, Avient Corporation.

In addition, several blends of the above polymers such as PC/ABS, PC/PETG, PC/PBT and PPO/PS have great commercial importance for several applications. Peel ABS (N/mm) 2.72 Type of Failure C/A GLS285-085 is an overmold TPE which requires no drying and bonds to ABS, SAN and ASA with very good adhesion after insert molding as measured by the 90° peel test and illustrated in Figure 3. Optimal adhesion values are also obtained for overmolds onto PC (Lexan), ABS (Cycoloy), PC/ABS(Cycolac) and PC/PBT (Xenoy) as demonstrated in Figure 5.
