Si-TPV silicone-based thermoplastic elastomers provide an excellent solution for nylon adhesion.

SILIKE developing a variety of Si-TPV elastomers is a versatile material that has the properties of both silicone rubber and thermoplastic elastomer, It is lightweight, durable, and resistant to wear and tear, making it an ideal choice for many applications. to serve sporting &leisure equipment, personal care, power &hand tools, lawn and garden tools, toys, eyewear, cosmetic packaging, healthcare devices, smart wearable devices, portable electronics, hand-held electronics, household, and other appliances markets, with a long-lasting comfortable soft touch feel, and stain resistance, these grades meet application-specific needs for aesthetics, safety, antimicrobial and grippy technologies, highly resistant to chemicals. However, Over-molding is a great solution, especially in power tools devices — is a product that's easy to use and withstands impact, abrasions, chemical reactions, and changes in temperature and humidity, it perfectly meets a critical need for the use of handheld. Plus, Over-molding allows manufacturers to create Ergonomically products that are both strong, durable, flexible, and lightweight. This process involves combining two or more materials to create a single, unified product. compared to traditional methods of joining two parts together. manufacturers are able to reduce costs associated with production and assembly. As well as, can be used to create products with unique shapes and designs.

As an overmolding material, Si-TPV can bond with the substrate that endures the end-use environment. It can provide a soft feel and/or non-slip grip surface for improved product features or performance.
When using SI-TPV the design and development of handles for powered and non-powered tools and handheld products, not just appears to simply enhance the aesthetically pleasing of a device, adding a contrasting color or texture. Especially, SI-TPV overmolding’s lightweight functionality also elevates ergonomics, deadens vibration, and improves a device’s grip and feel. By this means the comfort rating is also increased compared to stiff handle interface materials such as plastic. As well as to provides additional protection from wear and tear which makes it an ideal solution for power tools that need to withstand heavy use and abuse in a variety of environments. Si-TPV material also has excellent resistance to oil and grease which helps keep the tool clean and functioning properly over time.
Additionally, Si-TPV is more cost-effective than traditional material, allowing manufacturers to produce more products in less time. It is an attractive option to create custom products that meet their specific needs while still providing superior performance in a variety of applications.
