A soft, black, specialty, non-hygroscopic thermoplastic vulcanizate (TPV) in the thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) family. It is especially formulated to bond to ABS, PS, PC, COPE, ASA, PET, PPO/PS and metal for blends applications where hard/soft combinations are required. This grade of Santoprene™ TPV is shear-dependent and can be processed on conventional thermoplastics equipment for injection molding or extrusion. It is polyolefin based and recyclable within the manufacturing stream.Key Features Biocompatibility in tests corresponding to USP Class VI/ISO 10993 A representative grade undergoes annual testing for cytotoxicity and heavy metals Drug master file maintained with the FDA. Designed for excellent adhesion onto ABS, PS, PC, PMMA, ASA, and COPE (cold insert or 2K [two-shot] molding) Recommended for applications requiring excellent flex fatigue resistance Designed for soft touch applications Adhesion values can vary according to type of ABS, PS, PC, PMMA, ASA, COPE, metal, or blends thereof, tool design and processing conditions
