Rubberized Plastic

Rubberized Plastic

(OP)
I am designing a part and want to rubberize the plastic component. You see it on a lot of products now, to give it a more smooth touch. Laptops are also using this technology. I was wondering what you would specify on a drawing callout for this?

RE: Rubberized Plastic

Kraton is frequently used.  There are a lot of other options.

RE: Rubberized Plastic

I would specify it something like this:

plastic: Bayer Bayblend T65 XF PC/ABS (or whatever resin you have identified)
coating: Bayhydrol® UV 2689/1 XP soft-touch polyurethane

Here is a link to some of the soft-touch coating information available from Bayer:
