Santoprene TPV belongs to a thermoplastic elastomer (TPE). Santoprene TPV is specifically enhanced for the higher performance and durability. TPEs refer to a wide range of rubber-like materials that can, unlike traditional thermoset rubber, be further processed and recycled during the manufacturing process.
Drain hoses play an essential function for furnaces in homes; however, not all materials are designed to remove liquid condensate from these furnaces. The past was when OEMs preferred nitrile or neoprene because of their flame- and oil resistance properties. However, another material swiftly became the preferred choice for draining hoses was EPDM rubber.
Santoprene™ Thermoplastic Elastomers (TPE) and ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM) rubber offer insulation and sealing for outdoor use. They can be made into custom-designed shapes or made from extrusions or sheets from sponges or solid materials.
