Applications and advantages of Si-TPV elastomer materials for pet collars

describe:

Nowadays, pets have become a member of many families, and pet owners pay more attention to the safety and comfort of their pets. A good pet collar should first of all be resistant to cleaning, if it is not resistant to cleaning, then the collar will continue to breed mold, in the long run, the stains attached to the collar is also difficult to clean, the result may be that you choose to replace the new one, then it can be shown that the ordinary collars are not durable, and most of these are made of ordinary webbing, they are not easy to clean, and is not wear-resistant, especially easy to wear out of the wire, so a Si-TPV Pet Collar with Si-TPV Wrapped Webbing is your best choice!

Overmolding Techniques & Adhesion Requirements

SILIKE Si-TPVs Overmolding can adhere to other materials through injection molding. suitable for insert molding and or multiple material molding. Multiple material molding is otherwise known as Multi-shot injection molding, Two-Shot Molding, or 2K molding.

SI-TPVs have excellent adhesion to a variety of thermoplastics, from polypropylene and polyethylene to all kinds of engineering plastics.

When selecting an Si-TPV for an over-molding application, the substrate type should be considered. Not all Si-TPVs will bond to all types of substrates.

For more information regarding specific over-molding Si-TPVs and their corresponding substrate materials, please feel contact us.

Application

Si-TPV Silicone overmolding materials are an innovative approach for manufacturers of pet products that require unique ergonomic designs as well as safety and durability.It can be a good substitute for TPU coated webbing for dog collars, TPU coated webbing for leashes, TPU coated webbing for halters, soft TPU, silicone TPU, silicone coated webbing, TPU pet belts and other applications.

Advantages of Si-TPV on pet collars

Skin-friendly and comfortable: Si-TPV material is skin-friendly, soft and elastic, which can be better adapted to the pet’s neck, bringing a more comfortable wearing experience for pets and avoiding discomfort caused by collar tightening.

Durable: Si-TPV material has high abrasion and tear resistance, high tensile strength, not easy to be deformed and destroyed, can withstand the test of pets wearing it for a long time and the external environment, effectively preventing pets from escaping or being injured due to damage to the collar.

Waterproof and anti-bacteria easy to clean: As the Si-TPV material itself has good hydrophobicity, the pet collars have good waterproof performance, which can avoid odor and bacterial growth after contact with water. At the same time, the surface is not easily stained by dust and dirt, and can be kept clean by simply wiping with water or mild soapy water.

Diversified design: Si-TPV material can be injection molded and printed in two or more colors according to different needs, which can produce pet collars with various colors and patterns to meet the personalized needs of pet owners.

Health and environmental protection: Si-TPV material does not contain harmful substances, and has the characteristics of low VOC, low carbon and environmental protection, which is safer for the health of pets. At the same time, Si-TPV material’s recyclability and reprocessability make it have less impact on the environment.

SILIKE has developed a variety of Si-TPV elastomers that are versatile materials that combine the properties of silicone rubber and thermoplastic elastomers with light weight, durability and abrasion resistance, making them ideal for many applications. These grades of silicone rubber offer long-lasting, comfortable soft-touch feel and stain resistance to meet specific application needs for aesthetics, safety, antimicrobial and gripping technology and high chemical resistance. However, Over-molding is an excellent solution, especially in pet products - it is an easy-to-use, impact-, abrasion-, chemical-, temperature- and humidity-resistant product that perfectly meets the critical needs of pet product use. In addition, overmolding technology allows manufacturers to create ergonomic products that are strong and durable, yet flexible and lightweight. In contrast to the traditional method of joining two components together, the overmolding process combines two or more materials to form a unified product. It can also be used to create products with unique shapes and designs.
The application of Si-TPV material in pet collars brings more convenience and comfort to pets and pet owners. Its skin-friendly softness, durability, stain-resistant and easy-to-clean and water-resistant properties allow pets to wear it comfortably for a long time while keeping the collar neat and durable. the healthy and environmentally friendly nature of Si-TPV material is in line with modern people's requirements for pet products.
