Abstract
Thermoplastic silicone elastomer compositions are disclosed. The thermoplastic elastomer compositions comprise a blend of an organic thermoplastic elastomer and a silicone composition. A process for forming a vulcanized thermoplastic elastomer composition is also disclosed. The thermoplastic elastomer compositions can be used to form functional and/or aesthetic automotive parts such as gear knobs, seat belt connectors, interior mats, airbag protective covers, and over-molded skins for dash boards and armrests; to form appliance parts; to form soft-feel grips for hand held devices; and to form medical devices, sporting goods and general rubber parts. The thermoplastic elastomer compositions provide durable aesthetics, haptic and ergonomic properties along with stability to most commonly used chemicals and high mechanical performance, abrasion and scratch resistance.
