Abstract:
Disclosed are overmolded polyamide composites structures and processes for their preparation. The disclosed overmolded composite structures comprise i) a first component having a surface, which surface has at least a portion made of a surface resin composition, and comprising a fibrous material, ii) a second component comprising an overmolding resin composition, adhered to said first component over at least a portion of the surface of said first component. The surface resin composition is selected from polyamide compositions comprising a blend of (A) one or more fully aliphatic polyamides selected from group (I) polyamides having a melting point of less than 230° C., and (B) one or more polyamides selected from group (II) polyamides having a melting point of at least 250° C., and wherein the matrix resin composition is selected from (B) or blends of (A) and (B).
Abstract:
The present invention relates to the field of overmolded polyamide composites structures and processes for their preparation. The disclosed overmolded composite structures comprise a first component having a surface, which surface has at least a portion made of a surface polyamide resin composition, and having a fibrous material impregnated with a matrix resin composition, and comprise a second component comprising an overmolding resin composition. The second component is adhered to the first component over at least a portion of the surface of said first component. One of the overmolding resin composition and the surface polyamide resin composition is made of a polyamide composition comprising a blend of one or more semi-aromatic polyamides (A) and one or more fully aliphatic polyamides (B) and the other of the overmolding resin composition and the surface polyamide resin composition is made of one or more polyamides.
Abstract:
