This maleimide-based copolymer preferably further contains 0-10 mass % of unsaturated dicarboxylic acid anhydride monomer units, and preferably has a glass transition temperature of 165° C. or higher.

The present invention discloses a composition that may be extruded or injection moulded, comprising a chemically modified hardwood lignin and a polyester. The chemically modified hardwood lignin constitutes 10 to 50 weight-% of the total weight of the composition.

The invention relates to an element of a vehicle luminous device, including an element made from a synthetic polymer material and includes an injection space which is formed by a primary space and a secondary space. The element further includes a material injection channel with at least two portions which extend in different directions. A first portion includes an injection location and a second portion is connected to the secondary space, and at least one angled portion with a variable angle connecting the at least two portions and including a protuberance.

A manufacturing method of a symbol button for a vehicle includes: preparing a button body comprising a side portion, a top portion formed of a polymer material on which a metal is able to be plated; forming an electrically conductive layer on an outside of the button body using a conductive polymer material; forming a plating shielding layer in a form of a symbol using a material on which a metal is not able to be plated on the electrically conductive layer; and performing metal plating on the outside of the button body having the plating shielding layer.

The present invention relates to a compression limiter made of a first thermoplastic composition comprising a semi-crystalline semi-aromatic polyamide. The invention further relates to a process for producing the compression limiter, and to an assembly comprising the compression limiter and a thermoplastic body made of a second thermoplastic polyamide composition. According to the invention, the compression limiter is made of a thermoplastic composition.

This invention relates to a biodegradable polymer composition which is particularly suitable for use in the manufacture of articles having a high heat deflection temperature (HDT) by injection moulding and thermoforming.

There is provided a co-injection molded multilayer structure comprising a barrier layer and outer layers laminated to contact with the barrier layer on its both sides, wherein the barrier layer is made of a resin composition (X) comprising an ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer (A) and an alkali metal salt (B) of a higher fatty acid, having a melting point of 250° C. or lower; the ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer (A) has an ethylene unit content of 20 to 60 mol % and a saponification degree of 90% or more, and a content of the alkali metal salt (B) in the barrier layer is 50 to 1500 ppm in terms of metal atoms; and the outer layers are made of a resin composition (Y) comprising an unmodified high-density polyethylene (F) and a maleic anhydride-modified polyethylene (G), and a maleic anhydride modification rate relative to the whole resin composition (Y) is 0.005 to 0.1 wt %. This co-injection molded multilayer structure has excellent adhesiveness, so that its oxygen barrier performance can be maintained even after being subjected to an impact due to falling or the like.

A resin molded member for a vehicle lamp includes a first resin molded part, a second resin molded part, a bent resin molded part bent and molded to have a groove section between the first resin molded part and the second resin molded part, and a rib wall that is disposed inside the groove section and that is configured to connect between a first inclined wall and a second inclined wall which form the groove section of the bent resin molded part, wherein the rib wall is formed at a position overlapping with a gate mark which is formed on at least one of the first inclined wall and the second inclined wall through injection molding.

A method for producing a cup for a capsule for the preparation of infused or soluble beverages is provided. The method includes the steps of co-injection molding a cup of multilayer plastic material with an intermediate layer of the gas barrier type, the cup being a single body provided with a bottom having a nozzle, and an inner base including a completely closed central portion covering the nozzle, partially cutting the central portion to form at least one opening connecting the inside of the cup and the nozzle, and a further step of folding a portion of the cup between the opening and the nozzle towards the inside of the nozzle to form a deflector.

An injection-molded component having a casing body of plastics material and a core which is made of a core material, in particular of a metal, which is at least partially received within the casing body and is at least partially insert-molded. The injection-molded component may in particular serve as a joint part of a joint. As a result of the preferably metallic core, the injection-molded component, despite comparatively small dimensioning, is capable of being comparatively highly stressed. By virtue of the casing body of plastics material, a minor actuation noise may be implemented for the joint, even without complex lubrication.
