A curable primer composition comprising:(a) a curable component such as methacrylate; (b) a cure initiating component; and (c) a polymer material selected from the group consisting of: (i) block polymers represented by S-A-S where S is polystyrene and A stands for a polymer or copolymer formed from one or more of ethylene, propylene, butylene, and styrene, which are optionally substituted with carboxylic acid or maleic anhydride; provided that when A comprises styrene then A is a copolymer of styrene with at least one of ethylene, propylene and butylene, and is optionally substituted with carboxylic acid or maleic anhydride; and (ii) polystyrene-poly(ethylene-propylene) (“SEP”); and (iii) any combination of said polymer materials. The composition is applied to a part then photocured. It is dry to touch. Thereafter a thermoplastic material such as a polyolefin is overmolded (e.g. injection molded) over the applied composition. It enhances bond strength of the polyolefin to the part.

A metal resin composite-molded article which can suppress deformation induced by laser processing in a technique for improving the adhesion between a metal plate and a resin by forming grooves on the surface of the metal plate by means of a laser, even if the metal plate is thin. A metal resin composite-molded article obtained by insert-molding a resin composition on a metal plate having a thickness of 500 μm or less, grooves are formed on the surface of the metal plate in which the resin composition is inserted, the width of the grooves is 30-300 μm, the depth of the grooves is at most 24% of the thickness of the metal plate, and the ratio of the width to the depth is 0.1-2.5.

Provided is a composite (A) including a metal plate (B) and a reinforcing member (C) that is made of a resin. The metal plate (B) includes a joint portion (2) that is continuous with one end of a body portion (1), a hole that is formed through the body portion (1) in a thickness direction of the body portion (1) in the proximity of the joint portion (2), and a guide portion provided around the hole. The reinforcing member (C) continuously includes a main portion (5), a coupling portion (6) formed in the hole (3), and a locking portion (7) that is held in close contact with a surface on another side of the body portion (1). The guide portion (4) is at least one of a protruding portion provided on at least one of a rear side and a lateral side relative to the hole (3) in a direction from the body portion (1) to the joint portion (2), and a recessed portion extended from a front side relative to the hole (3) to the hole (3) in the direction from the body portion to the joint portion. In insert molding of the composite (A), a molten resin is introduced preferentially into the hole (3). With this, the joint portion (2) is formed reliably in good condition free from adhesion of the resin.

The invention provides a base for roller skates comprises a skeleton and a reinforcing shell. The skeleton is made of a first material through one-time processing and is formed with a plurality of hollow areas. The reinforcing shell including a plurality of inlaid structures respectively embedded in the hollow areas is directly disposed on the skeleton by injection molding with a second material. The second material is different from the first material. Two roller sets of frame mounting hole on the base for roller skates are directly formed by the skeleton, and a brake block mounting hole and a treading platform on the base for roller skates are formed by the reinforcing shell. The base for roller skates is not made of single metal material like prior arts, making it capable of reducing fracture due to the hard and brittle characteristics of the material used on prior arts.

A method for making a composite piece comprised of a metal part and a glass-fiber-reinforced plastic part, comprising: providing a metal part with a receiving cavity and a flow guiding channel, the flow guiding channel having an inlet communicating with the receiving cavity and an outlet; introducing molten plastic reinforced with glass fibers into the receiving cavity to fill the receiving cavity and the flow guiding channel and overflows from the outlet to form a flash section; curing the molten plastic to obtain a plastic part; removing unwanted portion of the metal part together with a portion of the plastic part to obtain the composite piece, wherein the glass-fiber-reinforced plastic part includes an exposed surface and glass fibers exposed at the exposed surface are substantially parallel to each other. A metal-plastic composite part prepared by the method and an electronic device housing are also disclosed.

This application relates to a multi-piece enclosure for a portable electronic device. The enclosure includes a metal part including a metal substrate and a metal oxide layer overlaying the metal substrate, the metal oxide layer having an external surface that includes openings that lead into undercut regions. The openings are characterized as having a first width, and the undercut regions are characterized as having a second width that is greater than the first width. The enclosure further includes a non-metallic bulk layer including protruding portions that extend into the undercut regions such that the non-metallic bulk layer is interlocked with the metal part.

Thermoplastic compounds include elastomer, modified polyolefin polymer including a polar functional group, and unmodified polyolefin polymer. The melt flow rate of the modified polyolefin polymer is greater than the melt flow rate of the unmodified polyolefin polymer. The thermoplastic compounds exhibit excellent bonding when overmolded onto rigid substrates such as metals, while also providing desirable aesthetic properties and good processability.

An injection molding process method of a plastic part on a metal shell to form a high-strength combination comprises: forming a molding cavity which is inwardly concave from the outer surface and extending through flanges at periphery of the metal shell to area beneath bridges protruding from flanges, the bridges being removed after the injection molding. A plastic part with slight deformation is in the molding cavity and is tightly combined with the metal shell due to the bridges. The protruding bridges can be removed from the flanges by milling or cutting without damaging the plastic part, thus the plastic part does not require to be remachined, and the appearance of the metal shell is not affected.

The present disclosure provides a separator-integrated gasket and a manufacturing method therefor, with which the likelihood of the gasket peeling away from the separator can be reduced while reducing the number of manufacturing steps. The separator-integrated gasket includes gaskets 210, 220 that are provided integrally with a separator 200 forming a fuel cell, wherein the separator 200 is formed from carbon to which a thermoplastic first resin material has been added, and the gaskets 210, 220 are formed from a thermoplastic second resin material that is compatible with the first resin material.

Wood-plastic hybrid component for use in a motor vehicle having a multi-component structure including a wood subsection, at least one water-impermeable plastic coating, arranged directly on the wood subsection for protecting the wood subsection, and a plastic subsection. The water-impermeable plastic coating is at least partially directly adjacent to the plastic subsection.
