Thermoplastic Elastomer 

Similar to jelly, elastomer is less dangerous and much higher quality. An elastomer is a compound that does not include phthalates. As you may have read, phthalates are “plasticizers” used to soften PVC vinyls. If vinyls do not contain any softeners, they are very hard PVC plastic. There are different grades of vinyls, from food grade for your plastic food storage containers or baggies (which don’t give off a smell) to economical grade that are used in some less expensive athletic shoes and other products.You can quickly determine the grade of the vinyls and quantity of plasticizers (phthalates) used by the smell. The more odor you smell, the lower the grade and the more phthalates used.

 You are probably aware of the terrible chemical smell that many of the “jelly” vibrators give off. This is basically the vinyl off-gassing large amounts of phthalates.Elastomers are a completely different material. They start out soft and have product added to make them harder. This product is then removed by high vacuum so there are no residual hardeners. No solvents are used in this process and there is no latex. This type of material is ideal for manufacturing a variety of textures.
