Long glass fiber is a strong yet ductile fiber reinforcement solution that is commonly used in metal replacement applications due to the high strength properties, lower specific gravity and attractiveness of the injection molding processing method. Our long glass fiber reinforced products range from 20-70% fiber content (by weight) across a variety of resin systems ranging from polypropylene to higher performance engineering polymers such as PEEK. Long glass fiber reinforced materials maintain impact performance during cold temperature use.

This instrument uses a sharper indenter and higher force. Softer TPE’s use the Shore 00 scale for measurement of materials below 5 Shore A. Most soft gels and soft foam rubbers are measured using the Shore 00 scale.

Generally, it will be more challenging to use environmentally conscious TPEs in products with stringent regulatory requirements, like infant care (i.e., pacifiers, baby bottle nipples, etc.) and medical applications (i.e., catheters, syringe seals, respiratory masks, etc.). For general uses such as packaging or recreational products like dive masks and shoe inserts, LSR, prime TPEs, and sustainable content TPEs can be good options.
