Shear Rate Dependence
Shear rate’ is proportional to the speed or flow rate that a TPE is moving against the wall of the tool.
Due to this unique viscosity/shear rate dependency, normal melt index testing (done at shear rates as low as 50 1/sec) will not reflect how the TPE will process at higher shear rates.

Melt processing of SmartHeat RHC products is carried out at typical PET processing conditions at recommended dose rates, which range from .02% to .075%.
Care must be taken to optimize the bottle blowing process due to the increased heat-up rate of the preform, to take advantage of the many benefits offered by this product range.
