Thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs) are also known as thermoplastic rubbers. These are a class of copolymers, which are used are plastic and rubber that includes a material with both thermoplastic and elastomeric properties. With the help of compounds as SBS or SEBS it forms Thermoplastic elastomers which are known as TPE, it facilitates to know the general level of performance and asset of the compound Properties grades and transparent grades available Household Appliances Consumable Goods Pleasant Surface Feel (Soft Touch) Adhesion to Polar thermoplastic such as ABS, PC & PP Good Tear strength, abrasion resistance High Flexibility Durability Low compression set Typical Applications Kitchen Utensils Household Articles Soft GripSeals manufacture of shoe sole material shock-absorbing material packing material grips anti-slip pads, rubber and plastic modification Specification Hardness Set(ISO 868) (Shore A-D) 30 A - 50 D Density (g/cm3) 0.88 1.4 Compression(Set) Good Tensile Set (ISO 527) 1.5 MPa 12 MPa Tear Set (ISO 34) 20 kg/cm3 - 60 kg/cm3 Elongation Set (ISO 527) (%) 300 - 1200 Working Temp.
