Thermoplastic Vulcanizates (TPV)
Thermoplastic Vulcanizates (TPV) are a special class of TPE that contains a cross linked rubber phase dispersed within a thermoplastic polymer phase. TPV compound offered by J & K Industries ® are chemically cross linked with PP / EPDM, in which EPDM is dynamically cross linked and dispersed in polypropylene phase. The compound is dry and free flowing as it is in granule form. We provide TPV compound in different hardness ranging from Shore ‘A’ 40 to Shore ‘D’ 60. Our TPV is suitable for extrusion, injection moulding, and blow moulding applications.
