TPEs are creating value throughout the world

摘要

These include the olefinic (o-TPEs) groups that include thermoplastic polyolefins (TPO) and the thermoplastic vulcanizate (TPV),either partially or fully crosslinked.In the styrenic (SBC) group there are those which are hydrogenated (SEBS,SEPS),with isoprene-based mid-blocks,and also new SBC TPVs.Under the Super-TPV family there are grades based on silicone,acrylates,and other materials.PVC TPEs incorporate a separate family and the E-TPE group includes thermoplastics polyurethane,copolyester elastomers (COPE),COPAs,and others.
