Arnitel is a thermoplastic elastomer (TPE-E) with high temperature resistance, good processability and excellent elastic behavior. Arnitel belongs to the TPE subcategory of thermoplastic copolyesters (TPC).
Arnitel is increasingly being used as a lighter, smarter, greener alternative to conventional rubbers, reducing environmental impact and ultimately system costs. Thanks to its outstanding characteristics, Arnitel offers exceptional flexibility in design—giving the freedom to implement the most innovative product concepts, and to add value to the design process. Therefore, helping meet demands for ever-higher end-product performance and cost-effectiveness. Arnitel has a wide range of hardnesses, which is capable of replacing rubbers, metals, leather and other thermoplastics. Arnitel delivers superior chemical, heat and wear resistance, along with the ability to be recycled.
Arnitel is our family of thermoplastic copolyester elastomers (known as TPE, COPE and TPC) ideal for many demanding automotive applications—from airducts, tubes and hoses to boots, bellows and cables. In all cases, this unique material gives you the strength and processing characteristics of engineering plastics combined with the performance of thermoset elastomers.
Our Arnitel Eco material is a bio-based thermoplastic copolyester (TPE) that delivers high performance with the added benefit of a lower environmental impact. The material is made from 50% renewable resources, based on rapeseed oil instead of mineral oil.
With thermoplastic copolyetherester polymer as the basis, Arnitel has a broad portfolio for cable insulation for consumer electronics (jacket+primary insulation), appliances, railway and automotive cable products. Next to insulation, Arnitel also offers a wide portfolio for strain reliefs and plugs.
Trail runners are some of the most extreme athletes around – and the right shoe makes all the difference to their performance. The norda™ 005 brings together 3 advanced materials including Arnitel® TPC to create the lightest, fastest and most stable trail running shoes available.
