In general, TPEs are recommended when you need a material that can be:
• easily manufactured
• bonded to rigid polymers
• molded into a unique design
• colored
• produced to a specific hardness, toughness or surface feel requirement
• recyclable
• chemical resistant or fire retardant
• noise and vibration dampening
One of the first things to consider is the necessary hardness for your application.
Additionally, thermoset materials can have more chemical and oil
resistance, so they may be more suitable than TPEs for applications such as a part
under the hood of a car.
