Thermoplastic vulcanizates(TPV's) are a very special class of TPE prepared by dynamic vulcanization or cross-linking process of PP and EPDM rubber, It builds favourable properties which make it high performance polymer, compressible and heat resistance. TPV seen strong growth in automobile seals, pipe seals, wire & cable jacketing compound and other application where a high heat resistance required. Thermoplastic vulcanizates with excellent properties of heat resistant and breaking strength Properties High temperature resistance Wide range of hardnesses Resistance to chemicals and weathering Low compression set Flex fatigue resistance Lightweight Good colourability Typical Applications Interior and Exterior Automotive parts Wire & Cable Jacketing compound Gaskets Grommet, sockets Building and construction materials Sporting goods Electrical and electronics good Specification Hardness Set(ISO 868) (Shore A-D) 40 A - 55 D Density (g/cm3) 0.93 - 1.1 Compression(Set) Excellent Tensile Set (ISO 527) 3 MPa 10 MPa Tear Set (ISO 34) 20 kg/cm3 - 120 kg/cm3 Elongation Set (ISO 527) (%) 500 1000 Working Temp.
