Polymeric materials are often combined with fillers and reinforcements, which modify their properties. The goal can be for example the improvement of thermal and mechanical properties or a reduction in costs. On the other hand, these materials can have negative effects too. In multicomponent injection moulding or in the case of products with weld lines, bonding problems can occur. In this research project, we analysed the effect of glass fibre and glass beads, and the most important technological parameters, melt temperature and holding pressure on the bonding strength between multicomponent injection moulded parts. The test samples were produced with a special injection mould, and the tear-off tests were performed on a tensile testing machine with a grip we developed.
