What kind of stretch properties can I expect from my TPE? When heated (for example, for molding), the individual chains slip, causing plastic flow. These cross bonds prevent the individual chains from slipping, thus preventing plastic flow when heat is added.

Home // Using Post-Consumer Recycled Content in Plastic Packaging Closures Closures are critical to the plastic packaging system because they can protect the contents of the package and provide safety aspects for the consumer. Additives, such as melt flow modifiers, can be used to recover the loss of physical properties and aesthetics when applying PCR resins

Styrenic block copolymer (SBC) elastomers are some of the most versatile and easily processed materials in the plastics industry. A ‘high flow’ (low viscosity) formulation gives low resistance to flow. High viscosity (low flow) means resistance to flow.
