SBS SEBS Based TPS Color Masterbatch
Styrenic TPE masterbatch for consumer grips, toys, footwear, and overmolding.
Our TPS color masterbatch is designed for styrenic TPE based on SBS or SEBS block copolymers. It provides excellent colorability while preserving the soft-touch feel and elastic recovery of the TPE.
Product Features
- Excellent colorability
- Preserves soft-touch feel
- > 95% elastic recovery retention
- No interference with overmold adhesion
- Oil-free, dry-to-touch surface
