Known for offering tight seals and reducing
vibration and noise, certain thermoplastic elastomers
(TPEs), like OnFlex™ grades, may be better suited
for your particular application than the historically
incumbent materials, like general purpose TPEs,
thermoplastic vulcanizates (TPV), and thermoplastic
polyolefins (TPO).

https://www.avient.com/sites/default/files/2021-06/plastisol-storage-handling-technical-bulletin.pdf
As a result of these plastisol aging characteristics
and the potential differences in testing
methodology, it is strongly recommended that
incoming quality control (QC) specifications not
be established based on plastisol Technical Data
Sheets (TDS), or Certificates of Analysis (COA).

Stat-Tech™ TPE Static Dissipative & Electrically
Conductive Thermoplastic Elastomers
Stat-Tech™ TPEs are electrically conductive
thermoplastic elastomers engineered to protect
critical electronics from electrostatic discharge
(ESD), and electromagnetic and radio frequency
interference (EMI/RFI).
Stat-Tech TPEs can be both injection molded and
extruded, giving great design freedom for more
complex geometries.
Stat-Tech TPEs are well-positioned to perform in
applications such as industrial conveyor belts and
controllers, ADAS systems and electronic devices.
