KEBAFLEX – H / SPA 60 A.02
TPE-S, Shore A60, modified for good adhesion to various polyamides such as PA6, PA66, PA6.12
TPE-S - KEBAFLEX / S
Details
Under the trade name KEBAFLEX / S we market a range of thermoplastic elastomer compounds based on SEBS/PP. KEBAFLEX / S is available in various Shore hardnesses from below A10 to above D50 and is often used as a substitute for rubber due to its cost-effective processing by injection molding. It is soft and flexible, freely colorable, shows good elastic behavior up to 100°C and offers a pleasant feel. A wide range of modified compounds is available, e.g. adhesion-modified grades for 2K injection molding, printable grades, grades with optimized compression set, etc.

Thermal properties
Pre-drying recommendation:
Dryer type: dry air dryer
Temperature: 80°C
Drying time: 3 – 4 h
Residual moisture: < 0.02
Temperatures:
Melt temperature: 220 – 250°C
Tool temperature: 20 – 40°C
General processing notes:
The relatively high viscosity requires high injection speeds and medium injection pressure. To avoid high internal stresses, and to improve the 2K adhesion, the holding pressure should be kept as low as possible, and the holding times of injection pressure and holding pressure should be as short as possible.
A compound temperature at the upper limit also improves adhesion.
Very good venting of the cavity is a basic prerequisite for achieving a high injection speed and, consequently, good adhesion and good surface quality.
The selected barrel capacity should not exceed 5 – 6 shots to avoid thermal material damage.
