1、TPE is the English abbreviation of thermoplastic elastomer. It has the high elasticity, high strength and high resilience of rubber, and can also be processed by injection molding, extrusion and blow molding.
2、Compared with other materials, TPE is environmentally friendly and harmless, and has the characteristics of high and low temperature resistance, flame retardancy, wear resistance and oil resistance. It has excellent processing performance, does not require vulcanization treatment, and can be reused.
3、TPE materials can also be modified and reshaped with a variety of substrates such as PP, PE, PC, PS, ABS, flame retardants, functional additives, etc., to develop a series of thermoplastic elastomer products.
4、TPE materials have become the main material for manufacturing consumer electronic cables and are widely used in the consumer electronics industry, such as for manufacturing mobile phone charging cables, data cables, headphone cables and audio cables.
TPE has excellent elasticity. Due to the particularity of its molecular chain structure, TPE materials can quickly return to their original shape after being stressed and have good resilience. This makes TPE materials perform well in applications that require elastic support, such as seals, rubber products, etc. TPE materials also have good wear resistance. After special treatment, they can maintain a good surface state in a friction and wear environment, and are not prone to wear and aging. This makes TPE materials have advantages in applications that require wear resistance, such as automotive parts, engineering machinery accessories, etc.
In addition, TPE materials also have good chemical corrosion resistance, can maintain stable performance in an environment of chemicals such as acids, alkalis, greases, etc., and are not easily affected by chemical corrosion. This makes TPE materials widely used in applications that require chemical corrosion resistance, such as chemical pipelines, medical equipment, etc. TPE materials also have good processability, and can be made into products of various shapes through injection molding, extrusion and other processing processes, and the processing process is simple and low-cost. This makes TPE materials have advantages in applications that require complex shapes, such as plastic parts, daily necessities, etc.
