TPE masterbatch can be combined with SBC.Serel thermoplastic elastomer (TPE TPE Thermoplastic Elastomer TPE Terminal de Paiement Electronique (French) TPE Total Power Exchange TPE Twisted Pair Ethernet TPE Tampines Expressway (Singapore) TPE Therapeutic Plasma Exchange ) masterbatch can be combined with styrenic block copolymers (SBC (1) (SBC Communications Inc., San Antonio, TX, www.sbc.com) A large, national telecommunications company that grew from a multitude of local and regional companies, including Southwestern Bell, Pacific Bell and Nevada Bell, into a single, unified brand by 2002. ) and EPDM EPDM Ethylene-Propylene-Diene-Monomer EPDM Enterprise Product Data Management EPDM Ethylene Propylene Dimonomer (industrial/commercial piping/plumbing components) EPDM Engineering Product Data Management TPVs to produce compounds with performance benefits. Serel TPE masterbatch is solution styrene sty·rene n. A colorless oily liquid from which polystyrenes, plastics, and synthetic rubber are produced. Also called vinylbenzene. butadiene rubber (S-SBR) in pellet form. Serel grades are offered in pre-crosslinked and crosslinkable forms that are said to offer TPE compounders new design latitude and creativity. Customers are said to be able to produce hybrid compounds based on Serel masterbatch that have improved performance for such applications as soft grips and seals, while maintaining such TPE benefits as reduced cycle time and design flexibility. Performance benefits are said to include improved oil resistance, compression set, compression stress relaxation and wet coefficient of friction coefficient of friction n. pl. coefficients of friction The ratio of the force that maintains contact between an object and a surface and the frictional force that resists the motion of the object. for both SBCs and EPDM TPVs. Serel masterbatch is also said to have the added benefit of raising the useful temperature range of SEBS (a form of SBC). Applications said to benefit from the added performance Serel masterbatch provides include such consumer products as appliances, housewares, personal electronics, power tools, hand tools, writing instruments, sporting goods, ATVs, motorcycles and watercraft. Improved compression set and compressive stress relaxation are said to improve the fit for TPEs in sealing systems. Goodyear Chemical Circle 12 on card |
