TPE-S - Styrene-Ethylene-Butylene-Styrene Sample (SEBS)

TPE-S is a thermoplastic elastomer with the full name styrene-ethylene-butylene-styrene (SEBS). It combines the processing advantages of thermoplastics with the elasticity of rubber, making it ideal for a wide range of consumer and industrial applications.

This flexible material offers excellent durability and outstanding weather resistance. TPE-S is soft to the touch, non-toxic, and resistant to sunlight and chemicals, making it particularly suitable for consumer products that come into contact with the human body.

Common applications include soft-touch handles, seals, and medical or baby products. SEBS can be overmolded onto other plastics like polypropylene (such as on the handle of a toothbrush), allowing for greater design flexibility. It is also free from latex and phthalates, making it a safe and reliable material choice.
