TPE国际知名生产商介绍

弹性世界

1.   什么是TPE？
    广义上讲，TPE是所有热塑性弹性体的统称，包括TPV、TPR、TPO、TPU、TPEE、TPAE等，都是TPE的范畴具有弹性体的柔软、低模量特性，其中TPR是专指基于SEBS、SBS的弹性体。就是指以SBS、SEBS等苯乙烯类弹性体为基料的热塑性弹性体苯乙烯系热塑性弹性体(又称为苯乙烯系嵌段共聚物Styreneic Block Copolymers，简称SBCs)。在1972年，壳牌公司生产了SEBS共聚物，EB是指乙烯-丁烯共聚物嵌段。聚丁二烯中间段的氢化消除了氢键，提高了制品耐氧化降解和耐臭氧攻击。该产品的商品名为Kraton G®。

1. Thermoplastic elastomers
Generally speaking，thermoplastic elastomers(TPEs),which combine the processing advantages of thermoplastics with the flexible, low-modulus properties of elastomers, continue to grow in a wide variety of applications, include TPV, TPR, TPO, TPU, TPEE, TPAE. TPR is exclusively referred to as SEBS, and SBS (Styreneic Block Copolymers, SBCs). Block copolymer In 1972 Shell added the S–EB–S copolymer, where EB is the ethylene-butylene copolymer segment.S–EB–S copolymer is prepared by hydrogenation of the polybutadiene center block thus eliminating the double bonds and improving resistance of the product to oxidative scission and ozone attack . The product was introduced as Kraton G®.
