Read： 263 Time：17months ago Source：Transform the World with Simplicity

With the continuous development of science and technology, new materials have emerged, and TPE is a new material that has attracted much attention. So, what material is TPE?

TPE is an abbreviation for thermoplastic elastomer and is a new type of polymer material. It is a new material obtained by modifying raw materials by physical and chemical methods. TPE material has the excellent characteristics of traditional elastomer material, but also has a certain plasticity and processability. TPE because of its unique performance is widely used in automotive, medical, electronics, packaging and many other fields. The characteristics of

TPE:

1. Excellent elastic

TPE material can cover many application scenarios, especially in areas that require a certain degree of elasticity, such as: automobile manufacturing, medical equipment, etc.

2. Good formability

TPE materials can be made into products of various shapes by injection molding, extrusion and blow molding.

3. Good cold resistance

TPE material can still maintain good elasticity in low temperature environment, which has a very practical application for many fields, such as automobiles, sports equipment and so on.

4. Not easy to aging

TPE material has good oxidation resistance and weather resistance, even if exposed to outdoor for a long time, it is not easy to aging.

TPE applications:

1. Automotive field

TPE can be used as auto parts, such as: door trim, fender, front bumper, air conditioning outlet, etc. In automotive interiors, TPE is also used to manufacture interior parts such as steering wheels, dashboards, and seats. The characteristics of TPE make the automotive field its main application direction, and in the subsequent automobile manufacturing, more TPE materials will be used.

2. Medical field

TPE can be used in the medical field to manufacture medical devices. When patients use medical devices, they need good elasticity and safety, so TPE materials used in the manufacture of medical devices have become the most popular application direction. For example, in the manufacture of oral medical devices, TPE materials can be used for braces, dental pads, etc. In addition, TPE materials can also be used to make food packaging, gloves and other consumer goods.

3. Electronic field

The electronic field is another application field of TPE. TPE materials can be used for mobile phone shells, earphone touch keys, chargers and wires. In addition, TPE materials can also be used to manufacture electronic components such as wire connectors and capacitors.

summary:

TPE, as one of the new polymer materials, has great application value in various fields. Its elastic properties and plasticity make it can be widely used in many fields such as automobiles, medical devices, electronic products and so on. We believe that with the passage of time, TPE materials will become one of the leading actors in a wider range of fields, and will also become a new hot material for the innovation and development of commodities in the future.
