SK 1090B/N TPE – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the primary function of SK 1090B/N TPE in thermoplastic elastomer formulations?

A: SK 1090B/N TPE functions as a high-performance processing aid and viscosity modifier, enhancing melt flow, improving surface finish, and facilitating dispersion of fillers and additives in TPE compounds—particularly in SEBS- and TPE-S-based systems.


Q2: Is SK 1090B/N TPE compatible with common polymer matrices such as PP, PE, or thermoplastic vulcanizates (TPVs)?

A: Yes—it demonstrates good compatibility with polyolefin-based TPEs, including PP/EPDM TPVs and SEBS/PP blends. Compatibility should be verified experimentally in final formulations due to sensitivity to base resin polarity and molecular weight distribution.


Q3: How does SK 1090B/N TPE affect the mechanical properties of finished TPE parts?

A: When used within recommended dosage ranges, it typically maintains or slightly enhances tensile strength and elongation at break while significantly improving processability. Over-addition may reduce hardness or modulus, so optimization is advised for each application.


Q4: What are the recommended handling and storage conditions for SK 1090B/N TPE?

A: Store in original sealed packaging at temperatures between 5–30 °C, away from direct sunlight and moisture. Avoid prolonged exposure to high humidity or elevated temperatures prior to use, as this may affect free-flowing behavior during feeding.
