Automotive applications
TPE typically refers to Thermoplastic Elastomer, a material that combines the processability of plastic with the elasticity of rubber. It is commonly used in automotive interior accessories and offers the following advantages:
| Category | Description | Material Benefits |
| Door Seals | Used to seal the edges of car doors to prevent water and wind noise from entering. | Excellent flexibility, weather resistance, UV resistance, dual-shot molding capable. |
| Floor/Anti-slip Mats | Used as car floor mats or storage pads for anti-slip and interior protection. | Non-toxic, anti-slip, abrasion-resistant, customizable patterns, easy to process. |
| Interior Trim Parts | Applied to dashboard, door handles, and other tactile interior components. | Soft touch, aesthetic finish, colorable, enhances passenger comfort. |
| Grip Overmolding | Overmold material for gear shift knobs, hand brakes, steering wheels, etc. | Anti-slip, comfortable, wear-resistant, excellent adhesion to hard plastics. |
| Lamp Sealing Components | Waterproof sealing elements between headlamps and tail lamps. | Heat-resistant, aging-resistant, precision moldable. |
● Excellent flow properties, suitable for both injection and extrusion molding.
● Low odor and low volatile emissions.
● Compliant with RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances) and SVHC (Substances of Very High Concern) regulations under the EU REACH framework.
