The Benefits of TPV

Last week, That Plastics Guy discussed how TPV and TPE are often grouped together under the term “TPE” but very different.

In this episode, Kurt discusses:

  • The origins and development of TPV
  • Why TPV is often easier to process than flexible PVC
  • Performance and manufacturing advantages of TPV
  • How to leverage this compound for your application
