The FAQs about TPE materials
TPE elastomer soft material is used for secondary injection molding, overmolding and adhesive bonding.
To prevent contamination of TPE raw materials and the presence of old materials or impurities in the screw and attachment depressions, especially materials with poor thermal stability, before use and after shutdown, each part should be cleaned thoroughly with a screw cleaner to ensure no impurities adhere.
Transparent TPE materials have different product properties when applied in different areas. Thermoplastic elastomers are also called TPE materials. Transparent TPE not only has the processing properties of thermoplastic plastics, but also the physical properties of vulcanized rubber, which is the advantageous combination of plastic and rubber. Transparent TPE is widely used in people's daily life and production.
Rubber TPE materials
Because TPE material has good slip resistance and excellent elastic touch, it can enhance the touch feel of products and improve grip.
TPE overmolding, as the name suggests, is the process of overmolding TPE soft material onto other materials.
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, due to its good transparency, weather resistance, electrical insulation, and photodegradability, it is widely used in shoemaking, sponge, optical film, and other industrial rubber products.
Olefin transparent TPE has good weather resistance and ozone resistance, so it is called the fastest growing variety of TPE. It mainly becomes the main rubber material in fields such as automobiles and home appliances.
Rubber TPE materials
Common processing methods include one-step molding with a two-color injection molding machine, or using a regular injection molding machine with an overmolding mold for two-step injection molding. TPE overmolded products are generally handles and grip-type products. TPE soft material has a special comfortable touch. The introduction of TPE material enhances the grip and touch feel of the product.
Why is TPE material a good choice for dolls? Thermoplastic elastomer TPE soft compounds are becoming increasingly common in the toy industry. In the application field of toys,
Transparent grade is divided into transparent and translucent series, each with various softness and hardness; excellent transparency; smooth and soft surface; good anti-yellowing performance, tear resistance, good tensile strength; meets environmental requirements; suitable for various transparent series products.
Transparent TPE, specifically, 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 formed from SEBS base material, while TPR is modified from SBS base material.
Rubber TPE materials
Traditional soft PVC material TPR material, with its good environmental protection, safety, non-toxicity and other characteristics, is increasingly welcomed and trusted by consumers. Each industry has its own corresponding standards. As far as the toy industry is concerned, it also has its own special industry standards.
