Essentially Rubber: Cleaning up with eco-TPEs

Leading-edge designs and applications showing how elastomer materials contribute to all aspects of life and lifestyle in the 21st century:

Kraiburg TPE has highlighted its supply of new thermoplastic elastomers for the fabrication of vacuum cleaner accessories, including gaskets, filters, brushes, buttons, grips, and more. The compounder’s TPE RC/PCR/AP series “elevate performance and durability”, while offering up to 48% recycled-content, depending on hardness. The elastomer, according to Kraiburg, exhibits “exceptional" mechanical properties, such as flexibility, elasticity, and durability, as well as surface friction which facilitates assembly processes and better component fit.
