Features Of Hyundai EP9170B/8901 TPE

  1. Excellent elasticity and recovery performance across a wide temperature range (−40 °C to 100 °C).

  2. Outstanding processability via injection molding, extrusion, and overmolding onto PP, PS, and ABS substrates.

  3. Good resistance to UV exposure, ozone, and aging without requiring additional stabilizers.

  4. Low compression set (<25% at 70 °C for 22 h), ensuring long-term sealing and gasket integrity.

  5. Halogen-free formulation compliant with RoHS and REACH directives for sustainable manufacturing.

Typical Applications Of Hyundai EP9170B/8901 TPE

  1. Automotive interior trim components including door panels, armrests, and console covers.

  2. Soft-touch grips and ergonomic housings for power tools and consumer electronics.

  3. Seals, gaskets, and vibration-damping pads in industrial equipment assemblies.

  4. Overmolded handles for household appliances such as vacuum cleaners and kitchen blenders.

  5. Flexible connectors and protective sleeves in medical device enclosures (non-sterile contact).
