TPE gradually replaces traditional materials such as rubber and PVC in the automotive field

TPE is a thermoplastic elastomer material with high strength, high resilience, injection molding processing characteristics, wide application range, environmentally friendly, non-toxic and safe, and excellent coloring. Soft touch, weather resistance, fatigue resistance and temperature resistance, excellent processing performance, no need to vulcanize, can be recycled to reduce cost, can be double injection molding, coated with PP, PE, PC, PS, abs and other base materials It can also be molded separately.
In our daily life, TPE products can be seen everywhere. Our common sports equipments such as TPE tension belts, sealing rings, data cables, earphone cables, etc., are all made of TPE materials. As a new environmentally friendly material, TPE sets Rubber and plastic have the advantages, and the application fields are numerous. From interior parts to sealing strips, there are nearly 20 categories. However, in addition to these fields, what new areas can be excavated?
The rapid development of the automotive industry has driven the rapid development of the thermoplastic elastomer market.
Zhu Wei, an expert in the non-metal research department of China FAW Materials Department, said that TPE has great potential in automobiles. For example, sheath shields and electronic and electrical protective materials are gradually replaced by rubber by TPE. With the development of turbocharged power systems, three-dimensional blow molding tubes The development also drives the application of TPE. In Europe, the market has a high acceptance of truck prices, and the materials used for trucks are also large. The exterior parts such as spoilers and fenders are also commonly used in elastomers. The current demand for trucks in China is mainly focused on power. aspect.
In short, with the introduction of mandatory environmental regulations, lighter weight, lower costs and increased reliability requirements, engine temperature increases, space tightness is enhanced, production processes are simplified, adhesives are reduced, thermosetting rubber is replaced, and recovery is improved. With the development of the trend, the application of TPE in the car will surely usher in more space.
However, the current development of domestic TPE needs to eliminate many roadblocks, such as localization and scale, and currently rely mainly on imports; specialization and targeted development; technically, high performance, low pressure, extended application temperature range, and improved TPV The demand for joint rate and low cost is waiting for further efforts by the industry.
TPE gradually replaces traditional materials such as rubber and pvc in the automotive field. In 2015, the TPE industry entered a turning point in development. The TPR market for shoe materials was sluggish. The TPE market for vehicles was relatively dynamic. The demand for automotive lightweight materials, low VOCs, personalization and human comfort will drive the demand for TPE in the future. .
