TPE and PVC are two common plastic materials. They exist in terms of application fields, performance characteristics, etc. There are some differences. This article will introduce the differences between TPE and PVC from three aspects.
Elastic properties
TPE is a thermoplastic elastomer with excellent elastic properties , which can achieve a high degree of stretch without breaking. In contrast, although PVC also has a certain degree of elasticity, its elasticity range is narrow and it is prone to breakage. Therefore, TPE is more suitable for use when a high degree of stretch or deformation is required.
Temperature resistance
TPE has good temperature resistance and can be used in the range of -50℃ to 120℃. PVC easily becomes brittle at low temperatures and softens and deforms at high temperatures. Therefore, TPE is more popular in applications with higher temperature resistance requirements, such as automotive parts and electronic product casings.
Environmental protection
TPE is more environmentally friendly than PVC. PVC contains a large amount of chlorine, which releases toxic gases during the production process and is difficult to degrade, causing environmental pollution. TPE adopts green production technology, is non-toxic, odorless, recyclable, and complies with the requirements of the EU RoHS directive. Therefore, with the increasing awareness of environmental protection today, more and more companies choose to use TPE materials.
TPE material has better elastic properties and temperature resistance than PVC material and environmental protection level. It is increasingly widely used in some fields that have high quality requirements and pay attention to environmental protection.
