Description TPR, TPE properties
1 can generally thermoplastic molding machining, does not require special processing equipment.
2 a substantial increase in production efficiency. Can be directly vulcanized rubber injection molding machine, the time from the 20min or so, reduced to 1min or less; due to the curing time is very short, so direct vulcanization extruder has been used, a substantial increase in production efficiency.
3 easy to recycle and reduce costs. Waste generated in the production process (escape flash, out of waste plastic) and eventually the waste, can return to re-use; used TPE can simply recycling old products after recycling, reduce environmental pollution, expanding sources of renewable resources.
4. Energy. Most of vulcanized thermoplastic elastomer or curing does not require a very short time, can effectively save energy. Energy consumption, for example high-pressure hose: rubber 188MJ/kg, TPE is 144MJ/kg, energy savings of up to 25%.
5. Wider applications. As both rubber and plastic TPE advantages for the rubber industry opens up new fields of application.
6 can be used for plastic reinforced, toughened modified. Since the reinforcement of large, simplified formula, with the impact of constraints on the polymer dose is small, the quality of performance easier to grasp. However, heat-resistant than rubber, TPE, as the temperature rises and properties decreased, which limited the scope of application. At the same time, deformation, elastic recovery, less durability compared to the same rubber, the price is often higher than the same rubber, TPE advantage is still very prominent, a variety of new TPE products are constantly developed. Rubber as a new energy saving materials, the development is very promising.
