Soft Touch Appeal, Performance Materials – Si-TPV Silicone-based Thermoplastic Elastomers

No matter how old we get, we seem to be impervious to “softness”.

“Softness heals us without us even realising it, and the physical sensation of softness always seems to “soften” the heart. Soft touch can bring pleasure, soft touch can make people “soft”, soft touch can make feelings warm up …

Tactile sensation is a stimulus that encourages consumers to make a purchase. Soft-touch is an organoleptic property of plastic products, which can be described as having a very low visual gloss, an overall matte finish, a certain degree of softness when touching the surface of the part, and an overall feeling of touching a baby’s skin like a skin-friendly, silky touch. The details of the product, such as surface texture, weight and softness, can be revealed by touch, bringing people a sensory experience and satisfaction.

Si-TPV elastomer, a soft-touch material with excellent design flexibility and high performance, has been used in more and more products through the continuous development of its own application areas.

Si-TPV is a new Thermoplastic Vulcanizate Elastomer formed by the perfect combination of silicone and various substrates, through a special compatibility technology and dynamic vulcanisation technology, the fully vulcanised silicone rubber will be dispersed uniformly in various substrates in the form of soft particles in the form of islands to form a special island structure, which is used to improve the softness, hardness and flexibility of Elastomers, giving Si-TPV a rich softness and excellent resilience.

Si-TPV can be widely used in food contact, home appliances, household cleaning, intelligent electronic devices and Thermoplastic Elastomer Plastic Injection Overmolding and other fields, through good elasticity, comfortable, soft grip experience to bring tactile stimulation, so that your products instantly impress consumers! We are looking forward to working with you in the near future.
