TPE Solutions TPV 160A
TPE Solutions TPV 160A is a thermoplastic Elastomer (TPE), that is based on PP/EPDM. It is designed to replace thermoset elastomers, such as EPDM or polychloroprene, and traditional thermoplastic TPVs/TPEs. TPV – 160A provides the performance of vulcanizated rubber with the advantage of low-cost thermoplastic processing. Excellent oil and chemical resistance with a maximum service temperature of 275°F. It is ozone, UV and water resistant as well. This grade is also considered polyolefin.
