In addition, they also have limitations when it comes to
combining material of different chemistries.
In addition the
diffusion and viscoelastic properties of the elastomer has an influence on the
adhesion properties.
In addition selection of the overmold TPE depends on
the end-use application and environment.

In addition to adjusting
to a new way of life, amputees are often challenged with
identifying and acquiring an appropriate prosthetic
device.

In addition to these high-performance
characteristics, this healthcare portfolio offers a
reduced carbon footprint over the product life cycle
because PK production emits up to 61 percent less
carbon dioxide (CO2) than nylon.
