The invention relates to a method for producing an injection-molded component with an insert part. An insert part is provided with an inorganic surface, and the insert part is at least partly overmolded during the injection-molding process. The region, which is overmolded during the injection-molding process, of the inorganic surface of the insert part is coated at least in some regions prior to being overmolded, wherein the inorganic surface is supplied with an atmospheric plasma beam and a precursor. The invention further relates to an injection-molded component with an insert part, said insert part having an at least partly overmolded inorganic surface. A layer which is applied by means of a plasma coating process, in particular a plasma polymerization process, is arranged at least in some regions between the inorganic surface and the overmolded plastic.

A corresponding method for manufacturing a lens carrier, device for manufacturing a lens carrier, and a camera system for a surroundings detection system of a motor vehicle, are also described.

A method of making an iridescent, vehicular trim assembly is provided that includes: molding a polymeric base comprising an exterior surface; and over-molding an element over at least a portion of the exterior surface. The element comprises a polymeric, translucent material and an exterior surface with an integral diffraction grating having a thickness from 250 to 1000 nm and a period from 50 nanometers to 5 microns. Further, the molding can be conducted such that the polymeric base is molded with a tint. The method can also include forming a plated region over the exterior surface of the base. In addition, the method can also include cleaning the plated region with a plasma-etching process before the over-molding.

A lens carrier for a camera system of a surroundings detection system of a motor vehicle including a printed circuit foil, tracks being applied as conductors or resistors to a first side of the printed circuit foil, and a plastic material being sputtered onto a second side of the printed circuit foil situated opposite the first side. A corresponding method for manufacturing a lens carrier, device for manufacturing a lens carrier, and a camera system for a surroundings detection system of a motor vehicle, are also described.

A method for manufacturing composite of resin and other materials includes the following steps. A shaped piece made by materials different with resin is provided, and is degreased and cleaned. A resist layer with a lot of location holes is formed on the surface of the heterogeneous member by nano-imprint lithography, and a lot of small holes are formed on the surface of the heterogeneous member while the resist layer is removed. Then the heterogeneous member is inserted in an injection mold, and molten crystalline thermoplastic resin is injected into the mold, thus the resin embedded into the holes and bonding with the shaped piece. The method is environmentally friendly and suitable for mass production.

Through-holes are formed at a constant pitch along a side-edge portion of a fastener tape where a tape base fabric is covered by a waterproof layer, the through-holes piercing the fastener tape. Plasma treatment or corona treatment is applied to the side-edge portion of the fastener tape so as to form an activation region on a surface of the waterproof layer on one or both sides of the fastener tape. Injection molding of fastener elements is performed to attach the fastener elements to the side-edge portion of the fastener tape. Melted resin adheres to the activation region and fills the through-hole before solidifying into the fastener element.

A method of manufacturing a display device, the method including ejecting a window raw material into a mold, precuring the ejected window raw material, molding a cover window by placing the precured window raw material onto a display panel and curing the precured window raw material, and separating the mold from the cover window.

Embodiments relate to improving the adhesion between a base substrate and a resilient material layer. Plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) is performed to deposit a silicon compound layer on a base substrate. A resilient material layer is formed on the surface of the silicon compound layer. An object formed by the method may include the base substrate, a silicon compound layer on the base substrate, and the resilient material layer on a surface of the silicon compound layer. By having a silicon compound layer with a surface roughness and thickness, adhesion between the base substrate and the resilient material layer can be significantly improved.
