Why Is TPR Material Inseparable from Our Lives?

TPR (thermoplastic elastomer) material is a thermoplastic plastic with excellent elasticity and wear resistance. As a multifunctional polymer material, it plays an important role in many fields. Its unique physical properties and environmental characteristics make it a new favorite in many industries. It is widely used in automobiles, machinery, electronics, toys, packaging and other industries.

TPR material, that is, thermoplastic rubber material, is often modified by SBS substrate (here refers to the distinction in a narrow sense, which is different from SEBS-modified TPE). It is usually processed into spherical particles, ellipsoidal particles and round strips, showing bright transparent or white particles. TPR material not only has many excellent properties of rubber, such as excellent elasticity, rebound shrinkage, wear resistance and weather resistance, but also its processing method is more convenient than traditional rubber. Ordinary injection molding machines can easily process and produce, and can also be used for plastic toughening modification, encapsulation or composite injection molding with materials such as PP and ABS, without vulcanization treatment, thereby significantly improving production efficiency. In addition, as an emerging environmentally friendly material, TPR has the characteristics of being non-toxic and odorless, and can be recycled, which makes it more environmentally friendly.

TPR Material is used in many fields. Here are a few typical examples.

Sealants and adhesives: TPR materials have good sealing and bonding properties, and can be used to make various sealants and adhesives, such as automobile cylinder sealants, electronic component adhesives, etc. Including footwear, toys, stationery, tools, cables, 3C consumer electronics, electrical appliances, medical equipment, automotive industry, building seals, and daily necessities.

Repair materials and toys: TPR materials have good repairability and plasticity, and can be used to make repair materials for automobiles, machinery and other equipment, as well as various toys and children's products. Its excellent elasticity, wear resistance and weather resistance make the simulated toys made durable and safe, which can meet the needs of children to play for a long time. At the same time, the convenience of processing TPR materials has also brought great convenience to the production of simulated toys and improved production efficiency. In addition, the environmental protection characteristics of TPR materials also make it more popular in the field of simulated toys, contributing to the protection of the earth's environment.

Sealing strips and wheels: TPR materials can be used to make various sealing strips and wheels, such as automobile door and window sealing strips, mechanical seals, wheels, etc.

Medical devices and electronic products: TPR materials have good biocompatibility and stability, and can be used to make shells, buttons, etc. of medical devices and electronic products.

TPR Material is also used in maternal and child supplies. Baby suction cup bowl-designed with TPR material: Thermoplastic rubber TPR and TPE materials are not only environmentally friendly and non-toxic, but also have excellent elasticity, folding resistance and aging resistance. In the design of the baby suction cup bowl, these two materials are cleverly applied to the bottom of the bowl to create a suction cup structure. This structure makes full use of the deformable recovery of the soft rubber, so that the bottom suction cup can be firmly adsorbed on the desktop, effectively preventing the bowl from accidentally tipping over during feeding.

TPR materials have a wide range of applications and can be used to make various products that require elasticity and wear resistance to meet the needs of different industries.
