What are the advantages of TPE? TPE thermoplastic elastomer that is with a rubber high strength, high resilience, high elasticity, plastic processing and other features will be living in a material. Use a wider scope, which has the advantage that it does?
　　
　　1 can be used in general TPE molding machining, no special processing equipment.
　　
　　2 wider range of applications. Because the thermoplastic elastomer has advantages of both plastic and rubber for the rubber industry has opened up new fields of application.
　　
　　3 energy saving. Most are not vulcanized TPE or vulcanizing time is short, can effectively save energy.
　　
　　4 production efficiency. May be used as vulcanized rubber injection machine, the time from the original about 20min, shortened to within 1min; because the required curing time is short, it is possible to use a direct vulcanization extruder, productivity will continue to increase.
　　
　　5 in favor of recycling, reducing costs. Scrap and waste generated in the production, we can use the direct recycling; thereby reducing environmental pollution.
　　
　　6 can be used in reinforced plastics, toughening terms. Simplistic formulation, the impact on polymer quality and performance constraints of small and easier to grasp.
　　
　　But the heat resistance of the thermoplastic elastomer, but after all the rubbers, as the temperature increases, the decrease in the physical properties are constantly becomes large, so that it will use a restricted range. Similarly, the elastic recovery, durability, and compression ratio of the rubber and the like are poor, the price is higher than the rubber. Despite this, the advantages of thermoplastic elastomer is still very prominent, each new type of thermoplastic elastomer products will continue to be developed as a new type of energy saving raw rubber, and its development prospects remain promising.
