Talcs with fine particle sizes improve impact resistance.1
The lower the resistivity, the more conductive the material.
They also improve dimensional stability, the ability to resist losing shape under a load, abrasion resistance and surface hardness.

However, compared with engineered thermoplastics, these materials have a relatively high density, are more complicated and energy intense to process, and may suffer from corrosion.

For example, when load or tension is placed on a composite longitudinally (in the direction of the fiber), the fiberglass reinforcement is resistant to the loading.
In contrast, when the loading is perpendicular (or transverse) to the fiber, the matrix of the composite is resisting the load.
The flexural modulus indicates a material’s resistance to bending.

chemical resistant or fire retardant
Are TPEs chemically resistant?
Understanding the chemical resistance of TPEs comes down to the final formulation.

Grips for devices designed for use in commercial kitchens need resistance to lipids and fatty foods.
Mass loss calculated from this test indicates the abrasion resistance, or durability of the material.
It’s important to note that abrasion resistance can be improved through changes in material formulation.
