Telcar® TL-8431

Telcar® TL-8431 is an opaque, general purpose, low flow, halogen-free thermoplastic elastomer (TPE). Exhibits good mechanical properties, surface haptics & feel like rubber, excellent thermal performance in harsh environments (including acids, bases and chlorine), excellent resiliency, ductility and a long life in exterior, high UV and ozone weathering applications. Possesses elastomeric properties of vulcanized rubber and yet can be melt-processed and easily fabricated. Provides good processability, faster output, lower cost and recyclability. Has good colorability, good flexibility, good UV-, weather-, ozone & sunlight (720 hours) resistance, high elasticity, elongation & tensile strength and good low temperature flexibility & toughness. It can be processed by extrusion and injection molding. Used in electrical applications such as connectors, wire & cable applications such as appliance wire insulation & jacketing, industrial cable insulation, underground power cable and flexible cord, terminal cable & wire (SJEOW) jacketing. Complies with RoHS, UL 94 and UL 1581 (105°C).
