Thermoplastic Elastomers (TPE) are family of polymers that behave thermoset rubber with having recyclability and processing advantages of plastics. Thermoplastic elastomers do not require curing or vulcanization in the process and can be processed by conventional thermoplastic techniques such as injection molding, extrusion and blow molding.
Hardness: HA40-HD95
This material can be processed by extruding, injection-molding, molding. Compared with ordinary soft PVC materials, its property of physical and chemical is more excellent.
Shore hardness can be as low as 40 degrees, and there will be no plasticizer precipitation.
Compared to ordinary soft PVC with same hardness, brittleness temperature with low temperature can be reduced.
Compared to normal soft PVC with same hardness, tensile strength is basically unchanged, and elongation can be increased by 10-20%.
After 72 hours of accelerated heat aging at 100℃, the tensile strength and elongation remained unchanged or slightly increased. It is significantly better than that of ordinary soft PVC.
