Q1: What is the primary function of Teelorex IN-15074 TPE in thermoplastic elastomer formulations?
A: Teelorex IN-15074 TPE functions as a high-performance processing aid and compatibilizer, enhancing melt flow, reducing extrusion torque, and improving dispersion of fillers or additives in TPE blends—particularly in SEBS- and TPO-based systems.
Q2: Is Teelorex IN-15074 TPE suitable for applications requiring food contact compliance?
A: While Teelorex IN-15074 TPE is formulated with non-toxic, non-volatile components commonly used in food-contact-grade polymer systems, final regulatory approval depends on the complete formulation, processing conditions, and applicable regional requirements. Users must conduct full migration and compliance testing as part of their qualification process.
Q3: How should Teelorex IN-15074 TPE be incorporated into a TPE compound?
A: It is typically added during the masterbatch or final compounding stage using standard twin-screw extrusion equipment. For optimal dispersion, it is recommended to introduce Teelorex IN-15074 TPE after polymer melting has initiated and before filler addition—dosage generally ranges from 0.1% to 2% by weight, depending on formulation complexity and performance targets.
Q4: Does Teelorex IN-15074 TPE affect the mechanical properties of the final TPE product?
A: When used within recommended dosage levels, Teelorex IN-15074 TPE maintains or slightly enhances tensile strength and elongation at break while significantly improving processability. It does not act as a plasticizer and shows minimal impact on hardness or compression set under typical service conditions.
