Abstract: The present invention discloses a composition comprising a) a thermoplastic vulcanizate and b) a thermo-expandable microsphere comprising a polymer shell and a propellant encapsulated in said polymer shell based on the total weight of the composition. The composition is suitable for making foam with balanced load deflection and elasticity, including soft touch, reduced to low deflection, improved relaxation performance and low water absorption, replacing either soft paint or assembled constructions with foam sheets and meeting requirements in soft touch applications.
