How to Choose Between Silicone Sex Dolls and TPE Sex Dolls

When we are buying a sex doll, there are many factors to consider. One of these is the type of material that the doll will use. Many first-buyers may be confused with TPE and silicone materials, which most manufacturers use in lifelike sex doll production. The most popular choice for making a sex doll’s skin look incredibly realistic is TPE or silicone. The dolls made from these two materials appear very similar in the photo. So what is the difference between them?

What is TPE?

TPE (Thermoplastic Elastomer) is a material with high strength, resilience, and plastic processing characteristics. Environmentally friendly, non-toxic, easy to color, smooth, soft, processed, and recyclable. It is also soft and can be stretched to 6-10 times its length. Due to its properties, it is commonly used to produce various items, such as toys and rubber-like items.

What is Silicone?

Silicone is a food-grade material that is safe, non-toxic, insoluble in water and any solvent, and chemically stable. It is typically heat resistant and rubber, so it has a wide range of applications, such as being widely used in daily necessities such as adult products, medical equipment and instruments, water cups, etc.
