THERMOPLASTIC ELASTOMER

THERMOPLASTIC ELASTOMER (TPE)

They are high-strength products that have similar properties with rubbers, but unlike rubbers, they can be processed such as plastics and recycled 100%. The thermoplastic phase allows it to be processed by classic plastic processing methods such as extrusion, injection molding, blow molding, and allows the use of equipment used in thermoplastics. The elastomeric phase, determines the properties of the material similar to rubber materials, such as elasticity, softness, flexibility, permanent deformation, and minimum temperature of use. Thermoplastic elastomers TPE s are classified as follows.

Main Advantages Of Thermoplastic Elastomers
