SBCs are shear dependent – this means their viscosity is higher at low shear rates (such as extrusion) and lower at high shear rates (as in injection molding).
SBC TPEs will flow more easily into thin areas of the mold at high shear rates.
High flow GLS TPEs (such as Versalloy) have been used successfully to fill flow ratios up to 400.

They offer a
more sustainable alternative to standard polyolefin
grades while achieving equivalent performance
including good stiffness, durability, impact
resistance and UV stability.
To satisfy
required performance characteristics they can
be filled and reinforced with glass fiber, minerals,
impact modifiers, colorants and stabilizer systems.
