Figure 6: Typical Classification of TPEs based on ASTM D2000 Figure 7.
The adhesion is categorized based on adhesive failure (A)- if no TPE residue is left on the substrate or cohesive failure (C)- if the failure is in TPE.
Based on adhesion strength required by the consumer we have categorized an adhesion value higher than 12 pli to be acceptable for adhesion.
