The element comprises an uncured, partially cured or fully cured UV radiation curable elastomeric material, and optionally one or more regions of adhesive material. The element is affixed to the substrate upon contact of the surface of the element with the surface of the substrate by increasing the temperature of at least a portion of the element, applying pressure to at least a portion of the element, or exposing the uncured or partially cured UV radiation curable material to UV radiation in an amount and for a duration sufficient to partially cure the uncured material or fully cure the partially cured material.)

1. A method of manufacturing an article, comprising:

Providing an element formed of an elastomeric material comprising an uncured Ultraviolet (UV) radiation curable elastomeric material, or a partially cured UV radiation curable elastomeric material, or a fully cured UV radiation curable elastomeric material, the element having a surface;

Placing the surface of the element in contact with a surface of a substrate;

Increasing a temperature of at least a portion of the surface of the element, applying pressure to the at least a portion of the surface of the element, or both; and

Affixing the surface of the element to the surface of the substrate by forming a bond between the surface of the element and the surface of the substrate, thereby forming the article.

2. The method of claim 1, wherein the element comprises the uncured UV radiation curable elastomeric material, or the partially cured UV radiation curable elastomeric material defining at least a portion of the surface,

placing the surface of the element in contact with the surface of the substrate is performed before applying pressure to the at least a portion of the surface of the element when the surface of the element is in contact with the surface of the substrate, and

Performing, while or after applying the pressure, affixing the surface of the element to the surface of the substrate, the affixing comprising exposing the at least a portion of the surface of the element to UV radiation in a sufficient amount for a sufficient duration to at least partially cure the uncured UV radiation curable elastomeric material of the element or to fully cure the partially cured UV radiation curable elastomeric material of the element, thereby forming a chemical bond between the partially cured UV radiation curable elastomeric material or the fully cured UV radiation curable elastomeric material of the element and a material of the substrate.

3. The method of claim 1, wherein the element comprises the partially cured UV radiation curable elastomeric material or the fully cured UV radiation curable elastomeric material, and further comprising an adhesive material defining at least a portion of the surface of the element;

Performing increasing the temperature of the at least a portion of the surface of the element while or before placing the surface of the element in contact with the surface of the substrate; and

Forming the bond between the surface of the element and the surface of the substrate includes applying pressure to the at least a portion of the surface of the element while the at least a portion of the surface of the element is in contact with the surface of the substrate when the temperature of the at least a portion of the surface of the element is above the melting point of the adhesive material, and then reducing the temperature of the at least a portion of the surface of the element to a temperature below the melting point of the adhesive material while the at least a portion of the surface of the element remains in contact with the surface of the substrate, thereby forming a physical bond between the adhesive material of the element and the material of the substrate.

4. The method of any one of claims 1-3, wherein the uncured UV radiation curable elastomeric material, the partially cured UV radiation curable elastomeric material, or the fully cured UV radiation curable material comprises a UV radiation curable rubber.

5. the method of claim 4, wherein the UV radiation curable rubber comprises UV radiation curable urethane rubber.

6. The method of claim 1, wherein the uncured UV radiation curable elastomeric material or the partially cured UV radiation curable elastomeric material further comprises one or more photoinitiators.

7. The method of claim 3, wherein the adhesive material is a hot melt adhesive.

8. the method of any one of claims 1-7, wherein the element is an element having a shape formed by molding, cutting, or trimming the elastomeric material.

9. The method of any one of claims 1-8, wherein the surface of the element is placed in contact with a portion of the substrate comprising a textile.

10. The method of claim 9, wherein the textile comprises fibers formed from a polymeric material comprising one or more Thermoplastic Polyurethanes (TPU).

11. The method of any one of claims 1-10, wherein the article is a garment, a component of a garment, an article of footwear, or a component of an article of footwear.

12. the method of claim 11, wherein the article is an article of footwear including an outsole and an upper, wherein the element is the outsole or a component of the outsole.
