Design Considerations for Multi-Material Molding of Thermoplastic Elastomers

By Terri Marion

Multi-material molding, a process whereby at least one melt processible material is bonded with at least one other material to produce a single, molded component, allows designers to optimize material properties and costs, eliminate assembly processes, and even invent ground-breaking products that could not be manufactured otherwise.
