   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ThermoPlastic_Olefin

   This type of material is non-rigid, and is sometimes called TPR for ThermoPlastic Rubber. To increase the rigidity of a TPO blend, fillers exploit a surface tension phenomena. By selecting a filler with a higher surface area per weight, a higher flexural modulus can be achieved.
