Thermoplastic Polyester Elastomer, TPEE, is a high-performance, high-temperature material that has many features of thermoset rubber and the strength of engineering plastics. It is a block copolymer containing a hard polyester segment and a soft polyether segment. The hard segment offers the processing properties like plastic while the soft segment gives it flexibility. It possesses numerous excellent features and is commonly used in electrical appliances, IT, and automotive industries.
- Outstanding Wear & Tear Resistance
- High Impact Resistance
- Excellent Flex Fatigue
- Good Chemical & Heat Resistance
