The difference between TPE and PVC

Among the products in our daily life, many are made of TPE material. Some people may have heard of PVC, PVC is polyvinyl chloride. Regarding the difference between TPE and PVC, perhaps everyone is not very familiar. Below, the staff of Zhongsuwang will introduce the difference between TPE and PVC in detail:

First of all, TPE material complies with international certifications. The raw materials used are all green and environmentally friendly materials, and it is the preferred material for export to Europe and America. TPE material does not contain halogen elements such as F, Cl, Br, I, and heavy metals such as Cr, Cd, Hg, Pb. It has passed the following environmental certifications: ROHS, REACH, PAHS, FDA, LFGB and other international environmental certifications. It meets the low-toxicity and environmental testing requirements of Europe and America.

PVC material, on the other hand, is a chlorinated hydrocarbon. During the production process, harmful substances are generated, making it not environmentally friendly.

TPE material has excellent physical properties: soft touch, high elasticity, gentle texture, adjustable surface gloss and haze, low smoke and halogen-free, no scaling, excellent oil resistance, weather resistance, aging resistance, flex resistance, ozone and chemical resistance.

PVC material uses injection molding machines, plasticizers containing DOP, foul odor during processing, easy to pollute the environment, and strict waste disposal methods.
