Low and Medium Hardness TPE is a subcategory of Thermoplastic elastomers. It is specially formulated to low and medium hardness. Its elastic modulus ranges from 1.1 to 16.4 MPa. Its flexural modulus ranges from 1.5 to 30 MPa. Its tensile strength ranges from 650 to 2500 MPa at break. Its elongation at break ranges from 150 to 780 %. Its hardness ranges from 64 to 92 Shore A. Its specific gravity ranges from 0.88 to 0.98. Its molding pressure ranges from 4 to 19 MPa.
Thermoplastic elastomers, also known as TPE, is a thermoplastic. polyolefin
