Thermoplastic elastomers in medical applications.
TPEs provide medical designers with a broad spectrum of soft-feel, hygienic materials that can readily fulfill accepted medical industry standards with the exception of body implants. Ultimate performance is a combination of tailor-made formulations coupled with innovative design that captures the capability of the material's properties and thermoplastic processing techniques, including combination with other polymers by coinjection moulding or coextrusion.
