DESCRIPTION

SILIKE Si-TPV® thermoplastic elastomer is a patented dynamic vulcanized thermoplastic silicone-based elastomer which made by a special compatible technology to help silicone rubber dispersed in TPU evenly as a 2~3 micron particles under microscope.Those unique materials combine the strength,toughness and abrasion resistance of any thermoplastic elastomer with desirable properties of silicone:softness,silky feel,UV light and chemicals resistance which can be recycled and reused in traditional manufacturing processes.

Si-TPV® 3520-70A thermoplastic elastomer is a material with good abrasion and soft silky feel which can excellent bond to PC,ABS,TPU and similar polar substrates. It is a product developed for silky touch overmolding on wearable electronics, accessory cases for electronic devices,watch bands.

APPLICATIONS

Solution for soft touch over molding on smart phones, portable electronic cases, smartwatch wristband, straps,and other wearable electronic devices.

*ISO: International Standardization Organization ASTM: American Society for Testing and Materials

FEATURES & BENEFITS

(1) Soft silky feel

(2) Good scratch resistance

(3) Excellent bonding to PC, ABS

(4) Super hydrophobic

(5) Stain resistance

(6) UV stable

HOW TO USE

• Injection Molding Processing Guide

These process conditions may vary with individual equipment and processes.

• Secondary Processing

As a thermoplastic material, Si-TPV®  material can be secondary processed for ordinary products

• Injection Molding Pressure

The holding pressure largely depends on the geometry, thickness and gate location of the product. The holding pressure should be set to a low value at first, and then slowly increase until no related defects are seen in the injection molded product. Due to the elastic properties of the material, excessive holding pressure may cause serious deformation of the gate part of the product.

•  Back pressure

It is recommended that the back pressure when the screw is retracted should be 0.7-1.4Mpa, which will not only ensure the uniformity of melt melting, but also ensure that the material is not severely degraded by shear. The recommended screw speed of Si-TPV® is 100-150rpm to ensure the complete melting and plasticization of the material without material degradation caused by shear heating.

HANDLING PRECAUTIONS

A desiccant dehumidifying dryer is recommended for all drying.

 dynamic vulcanizate thermoplastic Silicone-based elastomers (Si-TPV), with hardness ranging from Shore A 25 to 90, Si-TPVs unlike traditional TPV, combination of the properties and benefits of any thermoplastic elastomer with the desirable properties of fully cross-linked silicone rubber, can be recycled and reused in your manufacturing processes.

Highlights:
1) Long-term silky skin-friendly touch does not require additional processing or coating steps;
2) Durable scratch & abrasion resistance, resistance to weather, UV light, and chemicals;
3) Reduce dust adsorption, non-tacky feel that resists dirt, no plasticizer and softening oil, no precipitation, odorless;
4) Self-adhered to hard plastics to enable unique over-molding options, and easy bonding to PC, ABS, PC/ABS, TPU, PA6, and similar polar substrates…
