TPE is the abbreviation of Thermoplastic Elastomer, the molecular formula is C26H20, which is a resin with rubber or plastic properties depending on the environment. This material has a wide range of applications and is commonly used in sports equipment, medical equipment and aviation equipment. TPE is a kind of thermoplastic material and has the characteristics of environmental protection. Nonetheless, TPE is non-toxic and harmless and is commonly used in tableware.

So what is the difference between TPE and silicon? First, TPE and silicon have different molecular structures. The molecular skeleton of silicon is SIO2 structure, and the molecular skeleton of TPE is CC structure. Both molecular structures are very stable, and silicon is commonly used in breast implants. The TPE material, which is very close to silicone, is very safe for the human body. In addition to TPE, TPE has the advantage of being recyclable over silicon. Both silicone and TPE are elastomers. TPE has higher plasticity, and TPE dolls have higher elasticity than silicone dolls. TPE dolls are easy to pull and repair. Thanks to its strong elasticity, TPE love dolls and real-life dolls can make a variety of poses and poses that humans can do. Therefore, adult products and love dolls made of TPE are more popular and more enjoyable to experience.

In terms of production, thermoplastic elastomers have advantages such as production cost and production process. Low price range The price range of the material itself is cheaper than materials such as silicone rubber, resulting in lower costs. Fewer production steps The reduction of production steps, such as no cross-linking, increases productivity and reduces energy consumption. TPE inherits the easy processing characteristics of traditional PVC materials. It can be made into various fast processing wires such as headphone cables and computer cables. TPE based on SEBS filament has excellent anti-aging and weather resistance, and can maintain a soft and comfortable touch down to -50 degrees Celsius without hardening.

Now many adult dolls are made of silicone and TPE materials. The touch of TPE material is closer to human skin, just like real skin. Therefore, TPE material is more prone to damage than silicon, so be careful. Still, products made from TPE are cheaper. Lover dolls made of TPE have the best texture. The skin, face, limbs and breasts of TPE love dolls are fluffy. The touch is great, which is one of the reasons why TPE adult products are so popular. Silicone is still the mainstream of lover dolls on the market today, but TPE will soon become mainstream.
In addition, the heat resistance of TPE material is lower than that of silicon, so be careful not to expose to high temperature during storage. That said, in general, if you buy a TPE or other silicone sex doll, it won't be that hot, just be a little careful. As for playing in the room, I think it's fine as long as it's not near the heater.
Sex dolls made of TPE have an important advantage: they are completely odorless. Silicone dolls may have a slight odor, but this is rarely the case with dolls made of TPE. There may be a slight smell on the first purchase, but the smell fades away over time.

As mentioned earlier, TPE products have many advantages, so love dolls using TPE are becoming mainstream. This new material has gradually become an important material in other fields, and the development prospect is very broad.
