  • Thermoplastic elastomer tubing and method to make and use same
    Patent number: 9987784
    Abstract: A thermoplastic elastomer tube can include a thermoplastic elastomer component disposed within a matrix. In an embodiment, the thermoplastic elastomer component is disposed within the matrix in a thermoplastic elastomer phase having a number of domains. At least approximately 50% of the domains of the thermoplastic elastomer component have an aspect ratio of no greater than approximately 1.5. In a particular embodiment, the thermoplastic elastomer tube comprises at least approximately 20 wt % of the thermoplastic elastomer component and no greater than approximately 50 wt % of a polyolefin component. In some embodiments, the thermoplastic elastomer component includes styrene.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 16, 2016
    Date of Patent: June 5, 2018
    Assignee: SAINT-GOBAIN PERFORMANCE PLASTICS CORPORATION
    Inventors: Sridhar Krishnamurthi Siddhamalli, Mark W. Simon, Steven Schrader, Todd E. Kundinger
