Thermoplastic elastomers (TPE) are a group of rubber-like materials that combine the processing strengths of thermoplastics with the best qualities of thermoset rubbers. As their name suggests, thermoplastics are temperature-sensitive plastics that become soft or even fluid when heated, and then harden...

Thermoplastic Elastomers (TPE) are materials that can be processed in all processing methods that are used for plastic materials, while having high strength as a vulcanized rubber without needing vulcanization process. These are the general characteristics; General Properties: Have low density It can...
Thermoplastic Elastomers (TPEs) are a diverse family of rubber-like materials that can be repeatedly melt processed. No matter how many times you expose TPEs to sufficient heat they will become soft and re-harden when cool. This defines TPE as a thermoplastic polymer material. Liquid Silicone Ru...
The world demand of thermoplastic elastomers was predicted to be 3.7 million metric tons with a growth of 6.3 per cent per year through 2011. However, because of the current economic downturn, this may not happen. Since the largest proportion of TPEs is in the automotive industry, the current...
