TPE for Injection Moulding: How to Choose the Right Compoundfor Your Application

Thermoplastic Elastomers (TPE) are widely used in injection moulding because they combine rubber-like flexibility with the processing advantages of thermoplastics. But choosing the right TPE for injection moulding depends on the application, manufacturing process and expected product performance.

What Should You Consider?

Hardness: Different products require different levels of softness and flexibility. Grips, seals and automotive components can each require a different TPE grade.

Application: The end use determines important properties such as flexibility, durability, surface feel and environmental resistance.

Material Compatibility: For multi-material components, compatibility with substrates such as PP, ABS, PC or Nylon can be an important consideration.

Processing Requirements: The selected TPE injection moulding material should also suit the moulding conditions and product design.
