The FAQs about TPE materials
Form a bonding layer at the interface between hard plastic and soft rubber,
TPE high-transparent material has different product properties when applied in different aspects. Thermoplastic elastomer, 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 the strengths of plastics and rubber. Transparent TPE is widely used in people's daily life and production.
Transparent TPE is used in appliance housings, handles, grips, etc. It exhibits very good hand feel, is anti-slip and labor-saving, and is easy to color and process. It also has a wide design space.

TPE overmolding, as the name implies, is to overmold TPE soft material onto other materials.
Transparent TPE material has different product properties when applied in different aspects. 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 the strengths of plastics and rubber. Transparent TPE is widely used in people's daily life and production.
To achieve the matte appearance of thermoset rubber surfaces, a rougher mold surface is required. Generally speaking, the rough surface produced on the mold cavity after electrical discharge machining (EDM) will result in an excellent workpiece appearance and make demolding relatively easy. Abrasive methods such as steam blasting, sandblasting, or shot blasting, as well as chemical etching, can also be used to create surfaces with different gloss and appearance.

Preheating the insert before overmolding helps improve bonding strength,
Transparent TPE is used in appliance housings, handles, grips, etc. It exhibits very good hand feel, is anti-slip and labor-saving, and is easy to color and process. It also has a wide design space.
The thickness of the TPE or TPR overmolding layer. In most overmolding applications, a wall thickness range of 1.5-3.0mm will ensure good adhesion. If the TPE layer is too thin, injection molding is difficult, bond strength is low, and hand feel is poor. If the TPE layer is too thick, on one hand the cost is higher, on the other hand defects like shrinkage and bubbles are likely to occur.
