They are part of the thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) family of polymers but are closest in elastomeric properties to EPDM thermoset rubber, combining the characteristics of vulcanized rubber with the processing properties of thermoplastics. (wikipedia.org)
This book covers the most important theoretical and practical aspects of rubber reinforcement, such as filler basic properties and their characterization methods, the effect of fillers in polymers, the processability of compounds, and the properties of filled vulcanizates. (hanser-fachbuch.de)
Specific2
Suitable curative system were chosen for specific polyethylenes/elastomer blending. (indiarubberdirectory.com)
A guide for selecting the most appropriate reinforcing systems for specific applications is provided, taking into account processabilities and properties of filled compounds and performance of rubber products. (hanser-fachbuch.de)
Phase4
These particles are fully vulcanized rubber (typically EPDM rubber for most Santoprene TPV grades) in a thermoplastic phase (most often PP in the case of Santoprene TPV grades). (wikipedia.org)
Here we have chosen five elastomers namely chlorosulfonated polyethene, (CSM) chlorinated polyethylene, (CM) silicon rubber (PVMQ), EPDM and bromobutyl (BB) and the plastic phase used are HDPE, LDPE and LLDPE. (indiarubberdirectory.com)
With increase in cure time the heat shrinkability of polyethylenes/CSM blends increases as revealed in fig 1 which may be due to more crosslinking of elastomer phase. (indiarubberdirectory.com)
The geater extent ofshrinkability of H-T stretched blends than the R-T counterpart may be attributed to increased elastomer phase which are crosslinked. (indiarubberdirectory.com)
Properties1
Although the search for a new tire material was unsuccessful, it resulted in the development of TPV, which combines the characteristics of vulcanized rubber with the processing properties of thermoplastics. (wikipedia.org)
Applications1
Santoprene TPV (thermoplastic vulcanization) is used in weather seals, underhood and under-car applications, and interior components. (wikipedia.org)
Range1
is a distinguished scientist in the field of elastomer science and technology, with a wide range of academic and practical experience In his 45-year R&D career, he has published approximately 140 papers and nine book chapters, co-authored seven books, and translated five books on rubber science and technology.

Synthetic5
This article explores the TPVs market, including its growth trajectory, key applications, and the significance of incorporating glyoxal, synthetic rubber, and high-temperature thermoplastics in TPV formulations. (writeupcafe.com)
During the vulcanization process, glyoxal helps create covalent bonds between the polymer chains of synthetic rubber and high-temperature thermoplastics, resulting in a three-dimensional network structure. (writeupcafe.com)
The synergy between synthetic rubber and thermoplastics in TPVs results in products with a balanced combination of rubber-like elasticity and thermoplastic processing ease. (writeupcafe.com)
When combined with synthetic rubber and glyoxal, high-temperature thermoplastics act as the continuous matrix, providing mechanical support to the elastomeric phase. (writeupcafe.com)
The incorporation of glyoxal as a cross-linking agent, along with synthetic rubber and high-temperature thermoplastics, has further enhanced the performance and expanded the applications of TPVs. (writeupcafe.com)
