THE IMPACT As tests and trials were conducted, it was shown that the Excelite dispersion interacted more intimately and consistently with PVC resin, essentially becoming part of the PVC resin matrix.

It is increasingly becoming the most popular material of choice due to its versatile characteristics and recyclability.

Versaflex™ TF Adhesive Thermoplastic Elastomers (TPEs) for Textile Fabrics As consumers are becoming more health- conscious, there’s a steady increase in the demand for functional, lightweight, and comfortable fitness clothing that is also visually appealing.

In fact, some blends are so unique to the client’s needs that the blend becomes proprietary. Because the material has never been combined or processed in this precise way, the “recipe” becomes a trade secret that the manufacturer saves for future use cases.
