TPV Elastoprene® N87A-S

Dynamically vulcanized thermoplastic (TPV) is a particular type of thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) which offers much better results given the exclusive combination of an elastomeric phase deeply dispersed in a continuous thermoplastic phase.

TPV Elastoprene® is a mixture of polypropylene and dynamically vulcanised EPDM rubber (PP/EPDM), with properties similar to those of other rubber products but with better results than traditional plastic materials.

Due to the enormous advantages of processability, vulcanized rubber materials are being substituted by TPV Elastoprene®, using the traditional technology in the transformation of plastic. Furthermore, with the excellent properties obtained, TPV Elastoprene® is replacing plastic materials like PVC.

TPV Elastoprene® is completely recyclable and reusable, safe to the environment, thus improving the overall profitability of the process; an added advantage to rubber production and manufacture.

TPV Elastoprene® has good resistance to the effects of the ozone, UV and diverse chemical products, with an operating temperature from -60 to 135°C.

APPLICATIONS
The excellent properties of this material make it ideal to satisfy the demanding requirements of the automobile sector, due to its response to temperature and compression set deformation. It can be used in both the inner and outer part of the vehicle.

Its principle application is for hollow parts which, given their shape, are manufactured via blow molding: such as bellows or conductions pipes.
