ABSTRACT
Engineered thermoplastic elastomers (ETPEs) are a relatively young, fast-growing generation of products and have an important strategic influence on both the rubber and plastics market. Much has been written about the increasing usage of plastics in the design and manufacture of medical devices, and today we may add ETPEs to this list, with significant benefits possible for the plastics industry manufacturing elastomeric parts using plastics processing technology.
