Description

Thermoplastic Elastomers CAS NO 308079-71-2 represent a versatile class of polymers that combine the processing advantages of thermoplastics with the elastic performance of vulcanized rubber. This unique balance of properties is critical for manufacturers seeking durable, flexible materials that can be efficiently molded and recycled. These materials are essential for producing high-performance components across the automotive, consumer goods, medical device, and industrial sectors where resilience and design flexibility are paramount.

Application

• Automotive Components: Used in seals, gaskets, interior trim, and under-the-hood parts requiring vibration damping and temperature resistance.
• Consumer Goods & Footwear: Ideal for soft-touch grips, tool handles, and shoe soles due to excellent flexibility and comfort.
• Medical Devices & Packaging: Employed in tubing, seals, and flexible packaging where clarity, biocompatibility, and sterilization resistance are needed.
• Wire & Cable Insulation: Provides durable, flexible jacketing with good electrical properties and environmental stress crack resistance.
• Industrial Hose & Belting: Serves as a key material for conveying systems requiring abrasion resistance and dimensional stability.
• Adhesives, Sealants, and Coatings: Acts as a modifier to enhance flexibility, toughness, and adhesion properties in formulated products.

Quality Control

Our Thermoplastic Elastomers are manufactured under a stringent quality management system. Each batch is tested against rigorous specifications for key parameters such as melt flow index, hardness, tensile strength, elongation, and compression set to ensure consistent performance. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting these results are provided with every shipment to guarantee traceability and compliance with your technical requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). Keep away from strong heat sources and open flames. For long-term storage, sealing the original packaging under an inert atmosphere such as nitrogen is recommended to prevent oxidative degradation.
