Thermoplastic Elastomer (TPE)

TPE

TPEs are a material class that combines the flexibility of rubber with the processability of thermoplastics. As they require no vulcanisation, they can be injection moulded in series production and recycled.

About This Raw Material

TPEs are a material class that combines the flexibility of rubber with the processability of thermoplastics. As they require no vulcanisation, they can be injection moulded in series production and recycled.

Being available at different hardness levels lets a single material family serve very different applications. Through two-component moulding they can be bonded to rigid plastics to create soft-touch grip surfaces.

Key Properties

Rubber-like flexibilityRecyclabilityWide hardness rangeGood fatigue resistanceSuitable for two-shot moulding

Typical Applications

Gaskets and sealsCable jacketsGrip surfacesAutomotive bellowsHoses and tubing

Technical Data Sheet

The information on this page describes the general properties of the polymer type. Numerical values such as melt flow index, density and strength vary by grade and appear only in the official TDS — we do not publish estimated values.

Supply in Türkiye and Europe

From our two warehouses on the European and Anatolian sides of Istanbul we offer same-day delivery within the city, and supply Europe through our Bucharest office.
