What Does Thermoplastic Elastomer Mean?
A thermoplastic elastomer is a chemical compound that is flexible and can be stretched to almost twice its original length at room temperature and then return to its starting length upon release of the acting stress force. This capability contributes to their strong corrosion resistant nature, making them ideal for use in corrosion prevention coatings and liners for equipment with moving parts. They are durable, scratch resistant, UV resistant, impact resistant and flexible for a wide range of paints and finishes.
