Bag and shoe industry

Today, elastomeric thermoplastic materials are used in the shoe industry, especially shoe soles. These materials are rapidly replacing the traditional compounds like PVC and polyurethane. Excellent features of thermoplastics such as lower specific gravity, higher long-term flexibility, better tear resistance, better low temperatures resistance, easier and faster process ability, and better coloring along with reasonable price has encouraged shoe manufacturers to use thermoplastic elastomers.
