Here are some key properties of thermoplastic elastomer:
1. Elastomeric Properties: TPE has deformation-resistant and elastic properties like elastomers. It can be flexible and stretchable.
2. Thermoplastic Behavior:TPE can melt and shape within a certain temperature range. This makes it similar to thermoplastic polymers.
3. Machinability: Thermoplastic elastomers can be easily shaped by machines using injection molding, extrusion and other thermoplastic processing methods.
4. Chemical Resistance:TPE can resist certain chemicals, but this property may vary depending on the composition of the material.
5. Various Applications: This material is used in a of industrial applications by combining the properties of rubber and thermoplastic polymers. It can be preferred in shoe soles, automotive parts, medical devices, toys and many other areas.
TPE has been a popular material in the industry due to its various advantages. Its flexibility, processability, and flexibility of use in a variety of application areas make TPE attractive for many industrial and consumer products.
