Detail

Si-TPV, developed by Chengdu SILIKE Technology Co., Ltd., This Dynamic Vulcanizate Thermoplastic Silicone-based Elastomer is developed using advanced compatibility technology, combining the benefits of both thermoplastics and fully cross-linked silicone rubber, offering the best of both worlds. Si-TPV surpasses standard thermoplastic vulcanized rubber (TPV) and is often termed 'Super TPV.
The SILIKE Si-TPV series Thermoplastic Vulcanizate Elastomers with hardness ranging from Shore A 25 to 90, are designed to be soft to the touch and safe for skin contact. Unlike traditional TPVs, Si-TPV is recyclable and reusable in manufacturing processes, providing expanded options and compatibility with standard thermoplastic processes. such as extrusion, injection molding, soft touch overmolding, or co-molding with various plastic substrates including PP, PE, Polycarbonate, ABS, PC/ABS, Nylons, and similar polar substrates or metals.
The softness and flexibility of the SILIKE Si-TPV series Silicone Elastomers provide exceptional scratch resistance, excellent abrasion resistance, tear resistance, and vibrant colors, making these compounds an ideal choice for a wide range of maternal and baby product applications.

Overmolding Techniques & Adhesion Requirements

SILIKE Si-TPV (Dynamic Vulcanizate Thermoplastic Silicone-based Elastomer) Series products can adhere to other materials through injection molding. Suitable for insert molding and or multiple material molding. Multiple material molding is otherwise known as Multi-shot injection molding, Two-Shot Molding, or 2K molding.

Si-TPV series have excellent adhesion to a variety of thermoplastics, from polypropylene and polyethylene to all kinds of engineering plastics.

When selecting a Si-TPV for soft touch overmolding application, the substrate type should be considered. Not all Si-TPVs will bond to all types of substrates.
