Materials
ABS plastic
Acrylonitrile butadiene styrene, rigid plastic.
ABS plastic is a synthetic material without which the manufacture of household appliances and toys is already difficult to imagine. ABS plastic is excellently coated with metal or polymers (such as polyurethane), which makes the variety of vibrator designs truly limitless.
Advantages:
-
Odorless
-
No plasticizers (phthalates)
-
Excellent vibration transmission Biocompatible
-
Low
-
maintenance
-
Hygienic
Acrylic
Acrylic glass / plexiglass / PMMA.
Acrylic is a synthetic glass-like thermoplastic polymer. It is non-toxic and does not contain substances hazardous to health. Therefore, acrylic is indispensable for the manufacture of dentures, optical lenses, lenses for eyeglasses, sanitary ware, etc. In short: an ideal material for sex toys with excellent sliding properties.
Advantages:
-
Odorless
-
Free of plasticizing agents (phthalates)
-
Smooth surface
-
Excellent vibration transmission
-
Aesthetic appearance, partially with magnifying effect
-
Oil and UV resistant
-
Biologically compatible
-
Accepts body temperature
-
Hygienic
Latex
Natural rubber.
Natural latex is obtained from milky sap of a tropical rubber tree. However, there is also synthetic latex. Both have equally good properties. Latex is non-toxic and does not contain substances hazardous to health, and therefore is widely used for the manufacture of condoms, disposable gloves, surgical gloves, etc.
Advantages:
-
No plasticizing agents (phthalates)
-
Very fine structure
-
Excellent elasticity and high strength
-
Accepts body temperature
-
Easy to clean
-
Hygienic
-
Harmless environmental protection
PU
PU coating (polyurethane).
Synthetic polyurethanes can be hard and brittle, but also soft and flexible. In foamed form, this material is known as sponge rubber, or foam rubber. Polyurethane is used in the production of mattresses, shoe soles, textiles, latex-free condoms, etc. As a coating on the surfaces of ABS sex toys, it gives them a velvety silky texture, making them pleasant to the touch.
Advantages:
-
Odorless
-
Free of plasticizers (phthalates)
-
UV resistant
-
Biocompatible
-
Accepts body temperature
PVC
Polyvinyl chloride, soft PVC.
PVC is a synthetic material that exists in hard and soft forms. Through the addition of plasticizing agents, the hardness and viscosity of PVC can be easily varied. PVC is versatile and is used to make a wide variety of products: bouncy balls, bathroom curtains, dildos, sex dolls and many more.
Advantages:
-
Excellent elasticity and high strength
-
Resistant to alcohol and oils
-
Accepts body temperature
Silicone
Silicone rubber.
Silicone is obtained from natural raw materials by synthesis, it is considered a natural product. Silicones are generally considered to be physiologically tolerable (harmless to health) and non-toxic, which is why they are used in skin protection, cosmetic care and plastic surgery, among other things. In short: the best material for sex toys!
Advantages:
-
Odorless
-
No plasticizers (phthalates)
-
Excellent elasticity and smoothness, high strength
-
High color and shape retention and UV
-
Biocompatible
-
Hygienic
-
Environmentally friendly
TPE/TPR
Thermoplastic rubber , “living skin”, cyberskin (CyberSkin), Love Сlone.
Thermoplastic rubber, or thermoplastic elastomers, is a new material with silicone-like properties. The main raw material for the production of elastomers is natural or synthesized rubber, which is combined with the functional properties of the polymer. This material, very similar to real leather, gives a realistic feeling, delivering maximum pleasure.
Advantages:
-
Odorless
-
Phthalates
-
Excellent elasticity and high strength
-
UV resistant
-
Biologically compatible
-
Accepts body temperature
-
Environmentally friendly
General guidelines
Sex toys should not be stored together unprotected as reactions between materials can occur that result in e.g. , change in color and shape, the formation of torn places, etc.
Women and men with sensitive, allergy-prone skin should use ANY sex toys with a condom for their own protection.
