Santoprene thermoplastic vulcanisates (TPV) have several benefits over other plastic elastomers. This article discusses some of the benefits that you would enjoy if you selected this material for your manufacturing processes. Lower Weight Santoprene TPV is less dense when compared to the density of other plastic elastomers, such as ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM). This lower density makes santoprene TPV easier to move from one stage of the manufacturing process to another.
