Device designs are changing
to improve high-speed performance and network
connectivity to support faster speeds, higher
capacity, and lower latencies for customers.
Similarly, the cases, accessories, electronic gaskets
and grommets for consumer electronics must also
adapt to minimize signal interference and better
enable high-frequency signal transmission to the
latest devices.
KEY CHARACTERISTICS
• Enables excellent permittivity and low-loss
performance for high-speed signal transmission
and connectivity
• Delivers lower Dk and Df performance
compared to standard TPEs
• Provides excellent physical properties,
UV resistance and aesthetics
INDUSTRIES & APPLICATIONS
Versaflex CE 3140 TPEs are formulated for use in
phone cases to minimize signal loss and enable
high-speed connectively for 5G devices to deliver
a seamless experience for consumers.

Their high coverage potential
also makes them ideal for overshading/overdyeing
recycled materials or feedstock.
KEY CHARACTERISTICS
• Excellent lot-to-lot and within-lot consistency for
high-quality homogeneous black shades
• Easy processing and support of a long-lasting
spin pack lifetime
• Fastness properties and specification tolerances
on par with high-end products on the market
• Standard and bluish undertones available
in high pigment loadings for an efficient and
competitive coloration package
• Can be combined with additives into a single
combination concentrate for convenience
• Compliance with global, regional, and local
standards and regulations*
RECOMMENDED USE
• In most cases, the concentrate is added
directly to the resin using gravimetric or
volumetric dosing units; for some processes,
the concentrate can be added via a side stream
extruder (direct spinning)
• The recommended dosages are from 3% for
the typical automotive, technical, and carpet
applications and up to 6% for apparel, footwear,
and home textile yarns
