Kraiburg STC8677/0 TPE – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the primary function of Kraiburg STC8677/0 in TPE formulations?

A: STC8677/0 is a thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) grade designed to provide balanced processability and elastic performance in injection-molded or extruded soft-touch components, particularly where good flow characteristics and surface finish are required.


Q2: Is STC8677/0 suitable for overmolding onto polypropylene (PP) substrates?

A: Yes — this grade is formulated for strong adhesion to common polyolefins such as PP and PE, making it well-suited for two-shot molding applications where reliable interfacial bonding is essential.


Q3: How does STC8677/0 perform under repeated flexing or compression?

A: It exhibits excellent long-term elasticity retention and low permanent set, supporting durable performance in dynamic applications like seals, grips, and gaskets subjected to cyclic mechanical stress.


Q4: Can STC8677/0 be processed on standard thermoplastic equipment?

A: Yes — it is compatible with conventional injection molding and extrusion machinery without requiring specialized tooling or major process modifications, though optimal results depend on fine-tuning melt temperature and mold cooling parameters.
