There are two main dyeing methods for TPE/TPR: dyeing before granulation and dyeing before molding. Dyeing before granulation ensures better color uniformity and production efficiency, while dyeing before molding offers more flexibility but may result in uneven color distribution. To achieve uniform dyeing, manufacturers should use masterbatch instead of color powder, optimize mold temperature, minimize release agent usage, and ensure high-quality raw materials. Other factors, such as injection speed and mold exhaust, also impact color consistency and should be carefully controlled.

TPV sealing strips have better elasticity and aging resistance than TPE. Why are they gradually being replaced by TPE in daily life applications? The main reasons are as follows:1. Environmental protection 2. Material performance 3. Processing cost

If you make TPE pellets, you will definitely encounter customers who ask for transparent TPE materials to make some transparent toys or transparent parts. However, they often encounter such a problem: they use transparent TPE materials to produce test molds, but the transparency of the TPE products produced is not satisfactory. What is the reason for this?

TPE and TPU are both formed by extrusion. TPE has better feel and flexibility than TPU and is cheaper than TPU. In terms of hardness, TPE can reach 0A-100A, while TPU can only reach a minimum of 55A. Although they are both thermoplastic elastomer plastics, TPU has a higher bending modulus than TPE.

Compared to the traditional leather large-surround foot pads that use splicing and synthesis production processes, TPE foot pads can be molded in one mold, eliminating the use of additives such as glue, so that the foot pad material is not affected by foreign objects, so there is no odor and no irritation to the human body.TPE also has a good waterproof effect and can be directly washed with water for easier care.

With the rapid development of the economy, human awareness of environmental protection and product requirements have been continuously improved. TPE (Thermoplastic Elastomer) is a material with high elasticity, high strength, high resilience of rubber, and can be injection molded. It is non-toxic and environmentally friendly, has excellent colorability, weather resistance and temperature resistance, and has excellent processing performance. It can be recycled and coated and bonded with base materials such as PP, PC, PS, ABS, etc., or it can be molded alone. TPE has both the processing performance of thermoplastics and the physical properties of vulcanized rubber. It is an advantageous combination of the advantages of plastics and rubber. Providing customers with a TPE material formula with low price, high yield rate, and excellent performance has always been the core pursuit of TPE granulation manufacturers.

Thermoplastic elastomer is an environmentally friendly low-carbon composite material that possesses the characteristics of rubber (high elasticity, compression permanent deformation, etc.), as well as the processing characteristics of plastic (simple process). In most regions, the abbreviation TPE is commonly used to refer to thermoplastic elastomers. Another theory is that TPE is the general term for thermoplastic elastomers, TPU is thermoplastic polyurethane, TPV vulcanized thermoplastic elastomers, and TPR is generally considered as shoe sole material in China.

Injecting TPE materials requires strict control of temperature, pressure, injection speed, and other process parameters to ensure the production of high-quality finished products. Meanwhile, appropriate mold design and equipment maintenance are also key factors to ensure successful processing of TPE.

TPE elastomer is a high-performance material with excellent thermoplastic rheological properties, easy molding and processing, and maintains high elasticity at room temperature. Therefore, TPE elastomers are widely used in the automotive industry, such as seals, shock absorbers, protective baffles, and special applications such as conduits and fittings. Its outstanding performance and diverse applications are leading the trend of material revolution in the automotive industry!

TPE/TPR materials have recyclable properties, do not contain any potential toxic ingredients, have adjustable hardness, and support oil spraying, screen printing, and printing processing, making them a good choice to replace PVC materials!
