TPE extrusion line will gradually replace PVC! As PVC contains phthalate plasticizers, additives in PVC components may contain substances of high public concern as defined in REACH, which are harmful to human health and are environmentally limited. So the production of high-grade environmental protection TPE wire and plug, the user finally choose TPE soft adhesive material, which stems from TPE in many aspects of excellent performance.
TPE plug material characteristics: the appearance of natural color or black particles. Hardness 75~100A(ShoreA), specific gravity 0.96~1.18. Flame retardant properties: UL94,HB.
Injection molding: small vertical injection molding machine processing, recommended injection temperature 180~200 degrees. For other color products, it is recommended to match color powder, which is conducive to dispersion and plasticizing.
TPE raw material for wire: appearance, natural color or translucent plastic particles, can be matched to produce black and other color particles, according to customer requirements can be adjusted to fog surface or bright surface. Hardness 60~80 degrees (ShoreA), specific gravity 0.96~1.05. Flame retardant properties: UL94,HB.
Extrusion processing: TPE line material extrusion processing temperature is 165~175℃.
The application of TPE in wire plugs is popular because it has advantages that PVC does not have:
1. Excellent tensile properties, comfortable feel, good elasticity and wear resistance. TPE has the elasticity of rubber, excellent tensile properties, adjustable hardness, comfortable and smooth touch.
2. Easy to process. TPE inherits the characteristics of easy processing of traditional PVC, TPE rubber material can be easily produced and processed by extruders (such as earphone cable, USB cable, automobile electronic cable, computer row line, etc.), and can be processed by vertical small injection molding machine (such as earphone plug, USB plug, DC plug, etc.).
3. Excellent chemical properties. TPE is SEBS base material, which has good aging resistance, weather resistance and low temperature resistance. It still keeps soft and comfortable hand feeling and remains hard in the low temperature of minus -50 degrees.
4. Environmental protection and non-toxic. TPE material is low smoke environmental protection material, the smoke is light and less when burning, no smell of PVC chlorine, TPE does not contain halogen, benzene 16P, non-ylphenol NP, Pahs. Compliance with ROHS,REACH,EN71 environmental testing.
