The market trends in combination with the innovative molding techniques have
available has placed a high demand on thermoplastic elastomer suppliers to
produce compounds capable of bonding to the different engineering plastics
available.
TPE suppliers have responded developing a variety of compounds
with the attributes to bond to several engineering plastics such as nylon (PA),
polycarbonate (PC), Acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS), and PC/ABS alloys
This paper elaborates different TPE technologies developed to bond to various
rigid substrates i.e.
For specific interactions to
occur between the TPE and the substrate both have to come in intimate contact
to each other and wet-out the surface.
