Thermoplastic Elastomers (TPEs)
are engineered thermoplastic systems uniting soft elastomer
overmolds and rigid substrates to deliver enduring solutions.
Products are based on thermoplastic polyurethanes (TPU), alloys
and reinforced engineering thermoplastics and other TPE technologies.
These extremely versatile and equally durable thermoplastic
materials offer the performance of a soft elastomer overmolded
over a rigid polymer substrate. |
|
|
|
Characteristics:
|
|
- TPE products as soft as 60 Shore A for use as soft
overmolded layers
- Reinforced and unreinforced engineering thermoplastics
with a broad flex modulus as high as 650,000 psi designed to perform
as a rigid substrate
- Technology is available to provide products ranging
from 60 Shore A to 80 Shore D with flex modulus ranging from 2,300
to over 2MM psi
|
|
Features:
- Excellent adhesion between the soft overmolded
elastomer to substrates such as ABS, PVC, PC, PPO/PS, PET, PBT,
and of course, TPU, without use of mechanical interlocks or other
adhesion promoters. EstaGrip TPEs will adhere to nylon with
proper tooling design.
- Superior scratch, mar, and abrasion resistance
- Dynamic flexibility for lasting comfort
- Outstanding tear resistance
