Disclosed is a plastic composite including a magnetic alloy material in an amount of about 20% by volume or greater on the basis of the total volume of the plastic composite. Accordingly, weight of the clutch may be reduced by about 0.4 kg and weight of the pulley can be reduced by about 0.4 kg with the result that overall weight may be reduced by about 0.8 kg.

Various embodiments of the present invention relate to plastic-metal junctions and methods of making the same. In various embodiments, the present invention provides a method of forming a junction between a metal form and a solid plastic. The method can include contacting a metal including a plurality of pores and a flowable resin composition including a polybutylene terephthalate and a polyethylene terephthalate. The method can also include curing the flowable composition to form the solid plastic, to provide the junction between the metal and the solid plastic.

Method for encapsulating in a plastics material part of a plug-in connector that is arranged on an electrical conductor of a cable having an outer sheath, wherein a surface treatment is carried out in a region of the plug-in connector that is encapsulated, characterized in that the surface treatment is carried out with a laser.

An insert molded product in which a metal base member and a resin are bonded together includes a ground layer; a noble metal layer formed of a noble metal; a compound layer formed of a compound containing silicon (Si) and oxygen (O); and a mixture layer where the compound and the resin are mixed together, wherein the ground layer, the noble metal layer, the compound layer, and the mixture layer are formed in this order on the metal base member, and wherein nickel (Ni) is included in both the compound layer and the mixture layer.

A method for manufacturing a housing is disclosed. The method includes: roughening a first surface of the housing; placing the housing into a mold and performing an injection molding to form a plastic layer on the first surface and closely bonded to the housing; and defining a plurality of slots by cutting through the housing by means of milling without milling a part or all of the plastic layer, wherein the plastic layer is configured to keep a connecting portion between adjacent slots defined in the housing undeformed during the milling. A mobile terminal is also disclosed.

A display apparatus includes a display module having a display surface configured to display an image, and a window member disposed on the display surface. The window member includes a flexible base layer having a plurality of concave patterns defined on an upper portion thereof, and a plurality of hard coating patterns each disposed in a respective one of the concave patterns and having a hardness greater than the hardness of the flexible base layer.

A method for manufacturing an element for a bodywork part successively including the steps of producing a support element having a first face on which a support sheet is fixed having at least one connection member, arranging a heating track on the support element, the heating track being arranged on the first face of the support element, connecting the heating track to the connection member, and arranging the support element in a molding chamber of a mold defining the shape of the element for a bodywork part, the first face of the support element facing the inside of the molding chamber, and injecting a plastic material into the molding chamber in order to cover the heating track.

There is disclosed an in-mould labelling process for the manufacture of a labelled article comprising the steps of: feeding a labelstock web into a mould; forming an article in the mould such that the formed article contacts and effectively adheres to a label of the labelstock web; detaching the adhered label from the labelstock web; and removing the formed and labelled article from the mould.

Provided is a method for producing a composite member formed by bonding a base material and a resin member. The method includes: a surface treatment step of forming micro-order or nano-order asperities on a surface of a base material; and a bonding step of directly bonding, by injection molding, a resin member to the surface of the base material that has the asperities formed in the surface treatment step. In addition, the composite member includes: a base material having micro-order or nano-order asperities on a surface thereof; and a resin member that is in direct contact with the surface of the base material.

A method of manufacturing a tinted metal plated substrate includes injection molding a tinted polymer layer onto an activated metal layer of a metal plated substrate. The tinted polymer layer is a tinted polyurethane layer or a tinted polyurea layer and the activated metal layer can be a plasma activated metal layer, for example, an oxygen plasma activated metal layer that is free of a coupling agent when the tinted polymer layer is injected molded thereon. At least one additional metallic layer can be disposed between the activated metal layer and a polymer substrate. For example, at least one of a nickel layer and a copper layer can be disposed between an activated chromium layer and a polymer substrate.
