Thermoplastic Vulcanizates (TPVs), part of the thermoplastic elastomer family, combine the flexibility of elastomers with the processing ease of plastics, offering durability, chemical resistance, and versatility across applications. Composed of polypropylene and vulcanized EPDM rubber, TPVs like Santoprene 8281 65MED provide enhanced compression set resistance and simplify manufacturing for cost savings. With features like weight reduction through design, in-process recycling, and end-of-life recyclability, Santoprene TPV stands out as an innovative and sustainable material.

I’d probably use a TPV on anything that is going to have sustained contact in direct sunlight, the typical carrier resin on most TPU’s will leech out with UV exposure.
Donald Ford –
First time using 8281-65MED, and I’m impressed. It’s soft enough for comfort but tough enough for heavy use. Made a custom handle for my tools, and it’s been a joy to work with.
Cheryl Marshall –
The flexural fatigue resistance is exceptional, and it maintains its shape even after repeated use. It’s a bit pricier than PVC, but the performance justifies the cost.
James Morris –
I’ve tried a few TPVs, but Santoprene TPV stands out. It’s easy to mold, doesn’t absorb water, and feels premium. Used it for a custom seal, and it’s been holding up perfectly.
Robert Washington –
This stuff is amazing. I used it for a replacement handle on my toolbox, and it’s both soft and super tough. I didn’t even bother sanding it, and it still bonded nicely with epoxy.
Raymond Beers –
I love how TPV feels—it’s like the perfect balance between rubber and plastic. Used it for a custom dog toy, and my pup hasn’t managed to destroy it yet. It’s also non-toxic, which gives me peace of mind.
Kenneth Hass –
This grade of Santoprene is fantastic for creating custom grommets and seals in industrial setups. It outperforms even high-end EPDM in terms of flexibility under low temperatures.
Candie Deloach –
I’ve used TPV for a few projects now, and it’s always impressed me. It’s soft enough for comfort but tough enough for heavy use.
Clara Clark –
TPV is a versatile material that’s become a staple in our production line. Whether it’s for automotive parts or consumer goods, it delivers consistent performance. The recyclability is a huge plus, especially as we move toward more sustainable practices.
Dorothy Addison –
I used some generic TPV to fix my car’s window trim, and it worked like a charm. It’s not as shiny as the original material, but it holds up great under sunlight and rain. Definitely better than trying to use silicone or duct tape.
