TPE (Thermoplastic Elastomer-TPE) also known as thermoplastic rubber (Thermoplastic Rubber-TPR) is a characteristics of both rubber and thermoplastic materials, thermoplastic elastomer with a variety of possible structures, the most fundamental one is the need to have at least Two mutually dispersed polymer phase in the normal use temperature, one phase of the fluid (the temperature above its glass transition temperature Tg ─), and the other for the solid phase (the temperature below its Tg or equal to Tg) And the interaction between the two phases. That show rubber elasticity at room temperature, high temperature plastics molding of polymer materials can have similar mechanical properties of rubber and the use of performance, but also by thermoplastic processing and recycling, it has set up between the plastic and rubber A bridge. Therefore, the thermoplastic elastomer can be as fast as thermoplastics, effective and economical processing of rubber products. For processing, it is the kind of plastic; to nature, it is a rubber. Thermoplastic elastomer has many superior characteristics of thermoset rubber. TPR has excellent physical and chemical properties and easy processing, while the product also has a non-toxic, non-polluting and recyclable secondary processing of the environmental advantages. Therefore, in many industries are widely used, such as: toys, sports equipment, shoes, stationery, hardware, power tools, communications, electronics, food and beverage packaging, household appliances, kitchen supplies, medical equipment, automotive, construction , Wire and cable.
More valuable is that she is leading the market-oriented new product design and quality materials - the soft texture and adjustable properties, hardness and suitable for a variety of processing technology and has environmental advantages - provided for the majority of product designers Great use of space, which is no doubt you are innovative products, add value, lead the market trend to provide a great help.
