Abstract
A method for manufacturing a thermoplastic component for fuel systems or SCR systems includes the following steps: (1) molding and/or forming of a thermoplastic substrate from a first thermoplastic material, and (2) three-dimensional printing of a second thermoplastic material onto a first area of the thermoplastic substrate obtained after step (1). The first thermoplastic material of the thermoplastic substrate and the second thermoplastic material have a chemical compatibility.
