Zusammenfassung:A plastic-metal hybrid part includes an anodized metal substrate having plastic structures formed on the metal substrate. In a particular embodiment, the metal hybrid part is an electronic device enclosure and plastic structures are mounting features formed on the enclosure. Methods for manufacturing the plastic-metal hybrid part are also disclosed. In a particular embodiment, the metal substrate undergoes a pretreatment, is anodized after the pretreatment, and the plastic structures are molded directly on the anodized exterior surface of the metal substrate. In another embodiment, the anodized metal substrate is primed with a coupling agent before the plastic features are formed thereon.
