If a matte finish similar to that of a thermoset rubber is required, a rougher mold texture should be used (or Versalloy TPV alloys, which naturally produce a matte surface).
As a result, the anisotropic nature of the styrenic TPE needs to be taken into consideration when determining the gate location on the part.
For maximum flexibility, the design should be naturally or geometrically balanced.

Across dozens of industries and in a countless number of applications, product designers and manufacturers have turned to thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs) and liquid silicone rubber (LSR) to replace natural rubber.
When considering sustainable content TPEs, recycled content formulations have more limitations based on the comingled nature of recycled raw materials.
For these reasons alone, LSR is often the natural choice for everything from medical instruments to FDA Class III and USP Class VI implant products, including catheters, gastric feeding tubes, heart valves and stents.

This transaction was a natural next step in our portfolio evolution
and further focuses us on our core business of material science
formulation.
Because of the nature of our business, we do not believe that our
backlog is a meaningful indicator of the level of our present or future business.
Natural gas and raw materials costs represent a substantial part of our
manufacturing costs.
