Plastic
molding technology gives you the ability to add
weight directly into customized and complex
forms .
Overmolding a density-modified plastic onto the
handle increases its weight and shifts the COM
back towards the grip .

WHY AVIENT?
https://www.avient.com/sites/default/files/2023-01/Hydrocerol Chemical Foaming Agents for Injection Molding Technical Bulletin.pdf
These gases form a cellular foam
structure from the inside to the outside of the plastic
part when they are used in an optimized injection
molding process.
Structural foam
molding machines (Figure 1) are equipped with a
plasticizing extruder and a separate transfer cylinder
for quicker injection.

The main reason for the use of Hydrocerol Chemical
Foaming Agents is to achieve weight reduction of
plastic parts, which in turn saves material costs and
supports a more sustainable profile to the molded
part.
