Product Overview
Description
Thermoplastic elastomer, referred to as TPE or TPR, is the abbreviation of Thermoplastic rubber. It is a type of elastomer that has the elasticity of rubber at room temperature and can be plasticized and molded at high temperature. The structural characteristics of thermoplastic elastomers are that they are composed of different resin segments and rubber segments with chemical bonds. The resin segment forms physical crosslinking points by virtue of the interchain force, and the rubber segment is a high-elastic segment that contributes to elasticity. The physical crosslinking of the plastic segment changes reversibly with the change of temperature, showing the plastic processing characteristics of thermoplastic elastomers. Therefore, thermoplastic elastomers have the physical and mechanical properties of vulcanized rubber and the process processing properties of thermoplastic plastics. They are a new type of polymer material between rubber and resin, and are often called the third generation of rubber.

1. Jackets and insulating sheaths of wires and cables Because TPE has excellent electrical insulation properties, good weather resistance and aging resistance, good flexibility and high strength, and a wide temperature range, it is an excellent material for manufacturing wire and cable jackets and insulating tapes. The United States uses it more in this regard. Its cost is lower than polyester or polyurethane thermoplastic elastomers. TPE can replace vulcanized rubber, PVC, cross-linked polyethylene, etc., and has excellent performance in the insulation jackets of battery cables, transformer cables, and instrument lines. TPE has broad application prospects in wires and is very competitive, such as cables for new energy vehicles.
2. Auto parts In recent years, automobiles have developed towards lightweight and safety. The United States and other developed countries have used a large number of TPEs in the automotive manufacturing industry, such as automotive sealing strips, dashboards, steering wheel protective layers, seals, ventilation and heat pipes, etc. It is used in polyurethane and polyolefin thermoplastic elastomers in this regard. , has advantages in performance and total production costs.
3. Food safety and medical products Because TPE has good air tightness and high-temperature steam sterilization characteristics, it is non-toxic and meets food grade standards. It is suitable for manufacturing medical equipment, catheters, injection needles, children's tableware, kitchen utensils, daily necessities, etc.
4. The advantages of TPE soft rubber for adult products are high hardness, easy molding, recyclable waste and low cost. It is favored by manufacturers and is gradually replacing silicone in the adult product industry.
5. Smart wearables Because TPE is not sensitive to the skin, soft, smooth, has a short molding cycle and is easy to demold, it has successfully defeated silicone and TPU materials in the application of smart bracelets and smart watch straps. TPE has become the preferred raw material for smart bracelets and watches.
6. Mobile phone cable accessories High-end mobile phone data cables, headphone cables and plugs have begun to use TPE rubber, which is environmentally friendly and halogen-free. It has excellent resilience and tensile fracture performance. It can be customized to have a soft and smooth non-stick feel, matte or delicate surface. A wide range of physical property adjustments.
