The FAQs about TPE materials
TPE uses overmolding injection processing. Common products include handles, grips, electronic materials, etc.
Transparent TPE, specifically speaking, is thermoplastic elastomer, while TPR is translated from English, strictly speaking called thermoplastic rubber, which is the most basic difference. TPE is generally formed by modifying SEBS base materials, while TPR is modified from SBS base materials.
Olefin transparent TPE has good weather resistance and ozone resistance, so it is called the fastest growing variety among TPEs. It is mainly used as the primary rubber material in fields such as automobiles and home appliances.
TPR material processing
PP overmolding is a plastic with very weak polarity, and its polarity is very close to that of SEBS-based TPE.
Since any impurity in TPE material can affect the transparency of the product, attention must be paid to sealing during storage, transportation, and feeding to ensure the TPE raw material is clean. Especially if the TPE raw material contains moisture, heating can cause the raw material to deteriorate, so it must be dried. During injection molding, a drying hopper must be used for feeding.
Transparent TPE is used in stationery, sports equipment, etc. It has good UV resistance, chemical resistance, and is easy to color and process.
TPR material processing
Why is TPE material a good choice for toy dolls? Thermoplastic elastomer TPE soft compounds are becoming more common in the toy industry. In the application field of toys,
TPE transparent material requires high light transmittance, so the surface quality of the material product must be strict, without any defects such as streaks, pores, whitening, haze, black spots, discoloration, poor gloss, etc. Therefore, during the entire injection molding process, strict and even special requirements must be paid to the TPE raw material, equipment, mold, and even product design.
Transparent TPE materials have different product properties in different applications. Thermoplastic elastomer is also called TPE material. Transparent TPE not only has the processing properties of thermoplastic plastics but also the physical properties of vulcanized rubber. This is the so-called advantageous combination of plastic and rubber advantages. Transparent TPE is widely used in people's life and production.
