RTP engineering thermoplastic elastomers

RTP 1500 Series copolyesters possess exceptional toughness, impact resistance, load bearing capacity and low temperature flexibility. Their creep resistance, flexural fatigue resistance, and resilience make them suitable for applications in dynamic regimes. As a specialty compounder, RTP Company [3] formulates thermoplastic compounds to meet specific customer and application requirements. The summarized product data sheets (see Table 3) show the property profiles of the products. RTP 1500 Series copolyesters are tough and resilient, creep resistant, flexible at low temperatures, resistant to chemicals, oils, and solvents, available in 30D to SOD durometer hardness, and show an excellent high temperature performance. 

Typical markets of RTR TPE are the automotive, fluid power, and elec-trical/electronic industries they are also used in the production of appliances, power tools, sporting goods, footwear, wires and cables, furniture, transportation, and for medical purposes.
