Features Of API 1685/PS LHR TPE

  1. Low-hardness, high-resilience thermoplastic elastomer with excellent compression set resistance.

  2. Good processability via injection molding and extrusion without requiring drying or pre-treatment.

  3. Enhanced skin-friendly tactile feel and low extractables, suitable for consumer-facing components.

  4. Compatible with polypropylene (PP) and polyethylene (PE) substrates for co-molding applications.

  5. RoHS-compliant and free of phthalates, heavy metals, and halogenated flame retardants.

Typical Applications Of API 1685/PS LHR TPE

  1. Soft-touch overmolding for power tool grips and handheld appliance housings.

  2. Sealing gaskets and vibration-damping pads in automotive interior modules.

  3. Flexible hinges and snap-fit components in medical device enclosures.

  4. Ergonomic grips for sporting goods and personal care devices.

  5. Non-slip surfaces for industrial control panels and safety-critical equipment interfaces.
