HIGH PERFORMANCE CLEAR THERMOPLASTICS ELASTOMER Jiren Gu , Tom Castile and Krishna Venkataswamy GLS Corporation 833 Ridgeview Dr., McHenry, IL 60050 Abstract High performance clear TPE products are developed to replace silicone and PVC in various medical and personnel care applications. These TPEs have good processability. Styrene Block Copolymer (SBC) is a TPE that combine the processing characteristic of thermoplastics and physical properties of vulcanized rubbers.

NOVEL THERMOPLASTIC ELASTOMERS FOR UNIVERSAL OVERMOLDING ON DISSIMILAR THERMOPLASTICS Liang Xu, Sehyun Kim, Rajesh Varma and Krishna Venkataswamy GLS Corporation 833 Ridgeview Drive McHenry, IL 60050, USA Abstract Overmolding thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs) onto rigid thermoplastics has been an explosive trend in the last decade. Recently, many TPEs have been uniquely developed to bond to specific substrate materials based on surface energy or polarity match between the elastomer and the thermoplastics. Figure 1 shows the surface energy match of various thermoplastic elastomers with rigid thermoplastics.
