Key Properties of TPV Resin

1️⃣ Elasticity and Processability

TPV resin integrates the elasticity of rubber with the melt-processability of thermoplastics. This unique combination allows it to be melted and reshaped multiple times, providing manufacturers with significant flexibility in production processes.

2️⃣ Compression Set Resistance

Through the vulcanization of EPDM rubber within a polypropylene matrix, TPV resin achieves excellent compression set resistance. This property enables it to retain its shape under prolonged pressure, ensuring durability and reliability in demanding applications.

3️⃣ Durability

TPV resin offers outstanding flex fatigue resistance and aging performance. Its robust structure endures repeated bending and exposure to environmental stressors, contributing to a prolonged service life for products made from this material.

4️⃣ Chemical and UV Resistance

With high resistance to chemical degradation and UV radiation, TPV resin excels in harsh environments. This characteristic ensures it maintains its performance and structural integrity over time, making it ideal for outdoor or chemically exposed applications.

5️⃣ Heat Resistance

TPV resin demonstrates exceptional tolerance to elevated temperatures, retaining its structural integrity under thermal stress. This heat resistance makes it a reliable choice for applications requiring stability in high-temperature conditions.

6️⃣ Lightweight and Cost-Effective

Being lightweight, TPV resin reduces the overall weight of finished products, while its favorable cost/performance ratio enhances its economic appeal. This combination makes it a practical and efficient material across various industries.

TPV vs TPE

Choosing the Right Plastic for Your Application

Property	TPR (Thermoplastic Rubber)	TPE (Thermoplastic Elastomer)
Elasticity/Flexibility	High elasticity, rubber-like feel with excellent rebound	Similar elasticity, but varies by grade
Temperature Resistance	-40°C to 120°C	-50°C to 135°C
Chemical Resistance	Resists oils, acids, and mild solvents	Moderate resistance (varies by formulation)
Processing Ease	Easy to mold, extrude, and recycle (thermoplastic)	Similar to TPR, but some grades require specialized equipment
Cost Efficiency	Low-to-mid cost, recyclable scrap	Mid-to-high cost (depends on grade)
Environmental Impact	100% recyclable, REACH/FDA-compliant options	Recyclable but limited biodegradability
Key Applications	Footwear, automotive seals, grips, soft-touch goods	Medical devices, seals, grips

TPV Resin FAQs

Can you customize TPV formulations for unique color requirements or UV resistance?

Absolutely. We provide tailored solutions, including:
Color matching (Pantone/RAL codes) with ≤0.5 ΔE deviation.
Enhanced UV stability (tested per ASTM G154 Cycle 4, 2000h retention of 85% elongation).
Adhesion-promoted grades for overmolding onto PP/PA substrates.

What technical support do you offer during material qualification?

Our team provides:
Free trial samples (up to 25kg).
Co-engineering support for processing optimization (e.g., extrusion parameters, die design).

Are your TPV resins compatible with recycled content or bio-based fillers?

We offer “Eco-TPV” grades with up to 30% post-industrial recycled SEBS content, maintaining ≥90% of virgin material performance. Bio-based PP variants are also available upon request.

What’s your minimum order quantity (MOQ)? Do you offer samples?

Flexibility is our strength. MOQs start at 1 ton for standard grades, with lower thresholds for custom formulations. We provide free samples for testing—just cover shipping. Need a rush order? Our lean supply chain ensures 15-day lead times for bulk orders.
