In fact, TPR and silica gel have their own advantages and disadvantages, or each has its own advantages and disadvantages.

Silicone has many advantages, such as resilience, good deformation resistance; aging resistance, high temperature resistance, good chemical resistance; environmental protection, non-toxic and so on. But silica gel also has its shortcomings, such as long molding cycle, low production efficiency, materials can not be recycled and so on.

TPR material resilience, high temperature resistance, chemical resistance, etc. are not as good as silica gel. However, TPR materials can be quickly processed and formed, and the materials can be completely recycled, which is beyond the reach of silica gel. In some areas of double injection molding (overmolding), TPR materials show better material matching adaptability than silicone.
