Thermoplastic Vulcanizate (TPV) is a high-performance elastomer that combines the flexibility and resilience of rubber with the processing advantages of thermoplastics. Nexeo Plastics supplies TPV materials engineered for durability, elasticity, and long-term performance across automotive, industrial, and consumer applications.
As a trusted distributor, Nexeo Plastics provides access to TPV resin solutions from leading manufacturers, supported by technical expertise and reliable global supply.
Thermoplastic Vulcanizates, or TPVs, are part of the thermoplastic elastomer family of polymers, primarily composed of polypropylene and EPDM rubber. The EPDM rubber within the polypropylene matrix is vulcanized, which provides good compression set resistance. TPVs offer a combination of elastomeric properties, like compression and tension set, coupled with aging performance and chemical resistance.
TPV resins are selected for applications that require a balance of flexibility, durability, and environmental resistance. Common performance characteristics include:
Thermoplastic Vulcanizate is used across various industries where flexible, resilient components are required.
