Properties of elastomer TPE sealing strip material:
Plastic steel doors and windows, broken bridge aluminum doors and windows, wooden doors and windows, sealing tape with sound insulation, dustproof, antifreeze, heat preservation and other functions, in waterproof, sealing, energy saving and other aspects play an important role. At present, the door and window sealing strip mainly uses PVC, EPDM, TPV, TPE, TPR, silicone and other materials.
The use of TPE sealing material can prevent the door and window sealing strip from hardening and becoming brittle, losing its original elasticity and sealing function, resulting in water leakage and ventilation.
Inferior door and window sealing strips contain many harmful substances (such as soluble cadmium, antimony, lead and other heavy metal carcinogens), and the volatilization of these soluble harmful substances will seriously damage human health. After exposure to sunlight or high temperatures, the sealant strip will become sticky and adhere to the car windows and glass. Sometimes there will be "oil leakage" phenomenon, which not only pollutes the doors and windows, but also affects the sealing function and beauty of the doors and windows.
Application of TPE in door and window sealing strip industry:
Elastomeric TPE sealing materials are typically Shore A with a hardness of 60-70 and a specific gravity of 0.94. The extrusion temperature is usually set between 175 and 200 degrees. TPE sealing material has excellent coloring, flexibility, weather resistance, fatigue resistance and temperature resistance. It has excellent processing performance, no vulcanization, recyclable and low cost.
