TPE is a Rubber Raw Materials product. Key specs — Origin: China.
Product Description
TPE's are used where conventional elastomers cannot provide the range of physical properties needed in the product. These materials find large application in the automotive sector and in household appliances sector, some general examples of object made of TPE are shown in this .
Thus copolyester TPE's are used in tracks where stiffness and abrasion resistance is at a premium. They are also widely used for where nylon block copolymers offer a range of softness ideal for patients. Styrene block copolymers are used in shoe soles for their ease of processing, and widely as adhesives.
TPE is commonly used to make suspension for automotive performance applications because of its greater resistance to deformation when compared to regular rubber bushings.
TPE is also finding more and more uses as an electrical cable jacket/inner insulation, mostly in Portable Cord. markets a product trademarked as Seoprene. and offer similar TPE insulated cables. TPE offers a flexibility and laying that traditional (American) type "S" portable cables don't offer.
