TPE material concept. According to the customary understanding in the industry, TPE material refers to the elastomer alloy material modified by blending SEBS substrate. TPR refers to the elastomer alloy modified by SBS substrate. TPU, TPV, TPO, TPEE, TPAE are other elastomer varieties polymerized by other blending systems or monomers. These elastomer materials belong to the generalized thermoplastic elastomer TPE. This post discusses the price and market trend of TPE materials based on SEBS substrate. Recent market trends of TPE materials. TPE is a composite material, and its main components are SEBS, white oil, PP and calcium carbonate (solid TPE), among which the price of calcium carbonate is basically stable. The market price of other components has great influence on TPE. In recent one or two months, whether it is SEBS, white oil or PP, the market price has generally stabilized. Therefore, the price of TPE materials is generally stable and there is no significant fluctuation. Influence of compounding system on price. There are many differences in brands and specifications of origin of SEBS blends, which lead to the differences in TPE brands and physical properties, and are suitable for different application fields. It takes a lot of trouble to clarify the impact on the cost price of TPE. Due to the limited space, this article will not describe it in detail. In a word, TPE material is an elastomer alloy modified by SEBS rubber blending. In some cases, it is even necessary to customize the special blending system according to the special requirements of users. Different material requirements of users determine different cost prices of TPE. TPE, covering low-end eraser materials, costs 45,000 yuan a ton, and other general-purpose TPE materials cost more than 12,000 yuan to 50,000 yuan a ton. Generally, in order to understand the price of TPE materials, it is necessary to clearly describe the comprehensive performance requirements of the materials, and provide the best samples in kind, so that TPE suppliers can make more accurate price evaluation.
