This paper introduces novel developments in themoplastic elastomers which have the uniqueness of universally bonding to non-polar substrates such as polypropylene at the same time exhibiting outstanding bonding characteristics to various polar substrates. 2 INTRODUCTION A hard/ soft combination of TPEs and rigid thermoplastics provides differentiations of a product in various applications (1).

In doing so, we innovate solutions that help our customers overcome their challenges or capitalize on opportunities provided by the fast-changing world and secular trends.

We have established a product carbon footprint team that focuses on providing product-specific carbon footprint metrics based on where and how the product is manufactured
