The current paper emphasizes the science behind the adhesion principles of a soft thermoplastic elastomer onto a rigid substrate. GLS has focused its R&D efforts on the chemistry and technology of developing overmolding compounds to virtually any substrate. These TPEs are inherently non-hygroscopic and do not require drying, making them cost-efficient.
