For one, you can’t put a product or device made with TPEs in the oven at 400 degrees Fahrenheit (F), which you can do with silicone.
Not surprisingly, the healthcare market has additional regulatory requirements for those creating medical products and devices.
Additionally, automotive parts and devices made from TPE make vehicles lighter and more fuel efficient.
