The FAQs about TPE materials
TPE elastomer soft gel can be adjusted to appropriate hardness according to the product's physical requirements (hardness range Shore 25-90A),
Diene transparent TPE, diene TPE is mainly an isomer of natural rubber, so it is also called thermoplastic trans-natural rubber. Although its heat resistance and mechanical strength are not as good as rubber, it is widely used in shoemaking, sponge, optical film, and other industrial rubber products due to its good transparency, weather resistance, electrical insulation, and photodegradability.
Transparent TPE materials have different product properties when applied in different aspects. Thermoplastic elastomers are also called TPE materials. Transparent TPE not only has the processing properties of thermoplastics but also the physical properties of vulcanized rubber. This is the so-called advantageous combination of plastics and rubber. Transparent TPE is widely used in people's daily life and production.
Thermoplastic TPE material
TPE overmolding (two-shot injection molding) forming, the key point is to make TPE and the substrate materials such as PP, ABS, PC, PA adhere well. To achieve good adhesion between TPE and the substrate,
Transparent grades are divided into transparent and translucent series, each with various soft hardness levels; excellent transparency; smooth and soft surface; good yellowing resistance, tear resistance, good tensile strength; meets environmental requirements; suitable for various transparent series products.
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 main rubber material in fields such as automotive and home appliances.
Thermoplastic TPE material
Preheating the insert before overmolding helps improve bonding strength,
To prevent contamination of TPE raw materials and the presence of old materials or impurities in the recesses of the screw and accessories, especially materials with poor thermal stability, therefore before use and after shutdown, each part should be cleaned with screw cleaner to ensure no impurities adhere.
Transparent TPE, specifically speaking, is a thermoplastic elastomer, while TPR is translated from English and strictly speaking is called thermoplastic rubber. This is the most basic difference. TPE is generally modified and shaped from SEBS base material, while TPR is modified from SBS base material.
