Versaflex™ HC TPE is formulated to produce low coring levels in resealing applications. With Versaflex HC, on the other hand, injection molding happens in seconds, and does not require curing or washing, thus saving significant time and reducing cost. Versaflex HC grades give customers confidence that the materials will comply with regulatory requirements.

Results showed Versaflex™ XP shock absorbing TPEs absorbed up to 10 percent more impact than TPU at drop heights of 4 – 8 feet, and over 25 percent more impact at 10 – 14 feet. In addition, the tests showed that a case made with Versaflex XP TPE dropped from 14 feet performs nearly the same as a TPU case dropped from 10 feet.
