TPE Foam

TPE (Thermoplastic Elastomer) foam is one of the most widely used rubber foams in the global market. The advantage of thermoplastic elastomers is their ability to be stretched to moderate lengths and return to their original shape, which provides a longer lifespan and superior physical endurance compared to other materials. The flexibility of this foam is superior to that of EVA foam. It is lighter than other rubber foams and is highly resistant to cracking in both hot and cold temperatures.

What is TPE foam?

Thermoplastic elastomer foam TPE (Thermoplastic elastomers) is one of the most widely used rubber foams in the world market. The advantage of thermoplastic elastomers is the ability to stretch to moderate lengths and return to their original shape, which provides longer life and better physical range than other materials. The flexibility of this foam is better than EVA foam. It is lighter in weight than other rubber foams and withstands high temperatures without cracking.

Since TPE foams have a closed-cell structure, they are also completely waterproof, soft, and shock-absorbing. Unlike stiffer foams, this foam can be stretched and returned to its original shape, it has a longer lifespan. TPE foam is better for the environment because it requires less energy during production.

Characteristics of TPE thermoplastic foam

TPE foam is a closed-cell foam, one of the key features of closed-cell materials is the unique structure of the material that prevents the growth of bacteria and molds.

  • Low hardness
  • Low weight (light)
  • Very high flexibility and reversibility
  • High slip resistance
  • High ability to absorb shock and vibration
  • Waterproof, sound insulation, heat and cold

Applications of TPE foam

Due to the characteristics of TPE foam, it can be used in various industries, but in this section, most applications of this foam in industries are mentioned.

  • Production of all kinds of sports equipment (such as yoga mats)
  • Production of bags and shoes to make all kinds of bags and shoes
  • Cleaning industry (floor washing foams, glass washing, etc.)
  • Medical industry (manufacturing orthopedic equipment, etc.)
  • Electronic equipment (for making headphones, watch bands, etc.)
  • Automotive industry (the handle and hardness and wear resistance are higher, it is used.)

Frequently Asked Questions

What is TPE foam?

TPE, or Thermoplastic Elastomer foam, is a type of closed-cell foam known for its unique combination of properties. It blends the characteristics of rubber, such as flexibility and durability, with the processing benefits of plastic.

What are the main advantages of TPE foam?

TPE foam is highly valued for its lightweight and soft feel, making it comfortable and easy to handle. It has excellent elasticity and resilience, allowing it to absorb impacts and return to its original shape. A key benefit is its eco-friendly nature, as it is often recyclable and non-toxic.

How is TPE foam different from EVA foam?

While both are used in similar applications, TPE foam is generally considered to be softer, more elastic, and more eco-friendly than EVA foam. TPE does not contain PVC or latex, making it a safer and more sustainable choice for many products, particularly those for children.

What are the primary applications of TPE foam?

TPE foam is a versatile material used across various industries, including:

  • Sports and Fitness: For yoga mats, exercise mats, and sports pads due to its soft touch and slip resistance.
  • Footwear: In insoles, midsoles, and outsoles for lightweight cushioning and comfort.
  • Medical: For orthopedic pads and medical equipment due to its non-toxic, hygienic properties.
  • Automotive: In seals, gaskets, and interior components where flexibility and durability are required.
  • Toys and Children’s Products: For safe, non-toxic, and soft play items.
Is TPE foam resistant to water and chemicals?

Yes, TPE foam has a closed-cell structure, which makes it inherently water-resistant. It is also resistant to many chemicals, making it easy to clean and maintain, which is essential for hygienic applications.
