Abstract: Global Thermoplastic Elastomers Market to Reach $24. 2 Billion by 2026 . Thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs) represent a class of advanced copolymers or physical blend of specific polymers that ...

A new type of so-called ‘click’ chemistry has now been introduced. Like with most of click chemistry, it is based on a long-known efficient chemical reaction, which was now also found to be very ...

The use of plastic materials globally has greatly increased over the past five decades, and currently more than 100 million tons of these materials are used. In terms of tonnage, thermoplastics are ...

New molding process combines three techniques to create large thick-walled parts from high-performance thermoplastic ...

This Glossary is designed to give the reader a feel for the properties and applications of engineering thermoplastics and does not attempt to be exhaustive. ABS polymers are amorphous polymers readily ...

Wacker Silicones has developed a new generation of thermoplastic silicone elastomers that combine the typical properties of silicones with advantages of a thermoplastic elastomer. A transparent ...

Polyethylene has a number of advantageous properties, but biodegradability is not one of them. A team of researchers has now developed a plastic which has similar thermoplastic properties to ...

Pontacol thermoplastic adhesive films are well-suited for the production of preforms and at the same time also improve the mechanical properties of the finished composite parts. The specially ...

Thermoplastic composites in aircraft structure have long been scrutinized, because this class of materials has the potential for fast forming, weldability, inherently superior fatigue performance and ...
