Because of its rubber content tpe is more heat resistant requiring heating to a higher temperature than polypropylene for thermoforming.
Thermoplastic elastomer sheet.
In stock and ready to ship.
Tpe thermoplastic elastomer is a fatigue resistant sheet which is a combination of rubber and polypropylene.
After forming uniform cooling is required to minimize warpage and distortion.
Thermoplastic elastomer tpe sheet tpe is a diverse family of rubber like materials that can be processed and recycled like thermoplastic materials.
Tpe combines the desirable characteristics of vulcanized rubber such as flexibility and low compression set with the processing ease of thermoplastics.
