About sex dolls, do you remember the inflatable type? Since TPE and silicone sex dolls were invented, it's hard to believe that such unreal and uncomfortable dolls have been used. The advancement of materials and technology has made people say goodbye to the era of inflatable dolls, and the real sex doll allows us to experience the real feel and the feeling of sex. The days of using unreal dolls are gone.

Regarding choosing a sex doll, the most important thing is the material of the doll because that represents whether your doll can give you the best experience. Therefore, the material of the sex doll is very important. Then you have first to understand what materials dolls have.

To have both feel and look and feel, most sex toys now use TPE and silicone. Why can TPE and silicone become popular materials? How are they different? We must first recognize what they are.

What is TPE

TPE is Thermoplastic Elastomer. It is a polymer that combines thermoplastic and elastomeric properties. Because of its two properties, the material is so soft that it can become softer and even reshaped if heated. Therefore, the production process of TPE dolls is relatively simple, so TPE dolls can be produced in batches.

What is Silicone

So, what is silicone? It is like the reverse of TPE. Silicone is a thermosetting material. It doesn't get softer when heated like TPE because it's not a thermoplastic and an elastomeric polymer. This also means that once the shape of the silicone is cured, it cannot be reshaped. This does not mean that TPE is better; silicone is resistant to high temperature and pressure.

What is the difference between TPE sex dolls and silicone sex dolls?

Because they are two different materials, dolls made from them differ in many ways. For example, they vary in craftsmanship, fidelity, tactility, price, weight, and aging.

1Manufacturing techniques

First, from the production process, because of their different material properties, TPE has high thermoplasticity, and silicone is a thermosetting material so that tpe can adjust the doll’s details by heating and reshaping, but silicone cannot do it. Therefore, the production process is much simpler than that of silicone.

2Realism

Silicone dolls are much more realistic because the silicone material is harder than the tpe material, and it can show the details of the human body well, such as skin texture and blood vessels. But also, because the silicone material is harder, the tpe doll has a softer touch.

3Price

Silicone dolls can empty your wallet. The price of silicone dolls and materials is higher than that of tpe dolls. The price of a silicone doll is 2-5 times that of tpe dolls, except for special materials. In addition, the material can also be recycled and reused, so the cost is much lower than that of silicone dolls.

4Weight and Durability

Silicone dolls of the same size are fat girls compared to tpe dolls. This is not to say that their body is a problem, but the weight of silicone is heavier than that of tpe, so the weight of silicone dolls is on the high side. But silicone dolls can accompany you for a longer time. In terms of temperature and corrosion, silicone dolls are much better than tpe dolls. Therefore, the silicone doll is durable and has a low degree of aging.

But these two materials can become popular materials for a sex doll, mainly because the sex doll made with them has different advantages and disadvantages in addition to ensuring more realism.

Advantages of TPE sex dolls

1Cost-effective but high quality!

How intimate is the TPE doll? You can tell from their prices. The price of a doll is as easy for you as you just finished shopping at the supermarket. Although it may be exaggerated, the price of tpe dolls is irresistible. $700 may give you a chance to own them.

2、Soft and elastic feeling

Although the price of TPE is lower, it is soft and stretchy, so the dolls are soft and stretchy to the touch. Most of their body positions are quite elastic, so TPE material dolls can cooperate with you to make more and larger sexual movements. It is also because the TPE material is softer and more elastic, so you can see her breasts and fat buttocks shaking naturally when you have sex with Din.

3hypoallergenic

The TPE material is hypoallergenic, so you don't need to worry about causing an allergic reaction when entering it.

Disadvantages of TPE sex dolls

1、Hard to clean

TPE is a porous material; the disadvantage of this material is that when you and your doll are exhausted, your stains from clothes may penetrate the pores, which will cause the inside of the dolls to become no longer clean. Cleaning their insides is difficult, but this can be helped with specific detergents.

In addition, the porous material will also cause moisture to enter the doll’s body. If the dolls are not kept dry in time, it may cause dolls to become moldy, and no one wants to see mold on their dolls.

2Not resistant to high temperature

They deform when exposed to high temperatures, so when your TPE sex dolls reach 104 degrees Fahrenheit, they may lose their consistency, but this is the worst case, and there is no need to worry too much.

3Pay attention to where they come from

While such situations are rare, they are not impossible. Because tpe material can be recycled and reused, your little girlfriend meets someone else before; you should be very careful about this. No one wants their sex partner to be a secondhand.

Advantages of silicone sex dolls

1They are easy to clean!

The silicone doll is different from the tpe doll; it is a non-porous love doll. So you don't have to worry about your sweat or stains from clothes getting into the body of the doll. In addition, silicone is very resistant to high temperatures, so it will not deform when exposed to high temperatures.

They are easier to clean. When your dolls need a bath, you can also bathe with them without worrying about moisture getting into their bodies. You can also have a haircut with them in the bathtub.

2The silicone sex dolls are very realistic!

How realistic can they be? They look high quality; you can see the texture, blood vessels under the skin, and blush on their faces. They are like a real little girlfriend, and when you touch them, you can feel the same skin touch as you.

3She can accompany you for a long time!

They will never leave you voluntarily because they can adapt to many high or low environments and are resistant enough to corrosion, preventing many unexpected situations.

Disadvantages of silicone sex dolls

1Higher price than TPE sex dolls

Making silicone dolls requires more craftsmanship because they are not soft as tpe and cannot be reshaped once cured. And the silicone material is also more expensive, and you'll need to pay more to bring them home, which can drain your wallet. A silicone doll can cost as much as $5,000.

So, if you are planning to buy a silicone doll, you might look at the sex doll torso.

Her price is lower but also includes all the advantages of silicone dolls.

2Their skin is oily

If you expect your silicone dolls to have super smooth skin, you might be a little disappointed. Because silicone makes their skin secrete oil, making them sticky to the touch, you don't have to worry too much because baby powder can easily solve this problem. Or you can check the maintenance method for silicone.
