Silane-Based
Thermoplastic Vulcanisates
Based on novel silane chemistry applied in Thermoplastic Vulcanisates (TPV), Falcone
Specialities AG patent EP 2 942 369 A was published on the 11 November 2015. Our
newly developed products combine elastic properties of a vulcanized rubber with the
processing properties of thermoplastics. Main applications are in automotive, cables,
electronics, sports and leisure, packaging, appliances and construction. TPV offers a
combination of elastomeric properties, like compression and tension set, coupled with
aging performance and chemical resistance. In addition to a relatively low density (or
specific gravity), TPVs can be used to reduce the weight of flexible systems and parts.
