Goodyear has just introduced a new cross-linked elastomer in pelletized masterbatch form for use as a tool to address deficits of conventional olefinic TPV and SEBS-type TPEs, namely poor oil resistance and compression-set resistance at high temperature.

'Super-TPVs': the new challenge to rubber: a new category of TPEs combines engineering thermoplastics with vulcanized silicone or acrylate rubbers to provide new levels of heat and oil resistance. Conventional TPVs are also being upgraded with styrenic rubbers in place of olefinic types
