This classification is very valid, if the end-use application is automotive under the hood application or the elastomer is exposed to high temperatures and oil.
Selected overmolding TPE grades from a family of polar modified styrenic block copolymer compounds commercially available under the trade name VersaflexR with their physical properties are tabulated in Table 1.
Small kitchen appliances such as coffee makers, food processors, and electric knives require a good non-slip grip, stain resistance, and cleaning solution resistance Page 16 July 19, 2007 properties, while floor-care products require soft touch, vibration damping, excellent aesthetics, and durable long wear properties.
