Product type
TPU resin, or thermoplastic polyurethane resin, is a versatile polymer known for its elasticity, durability, and resistance to abrasion and chemicals. It is produced through the polymerization of diisocyanates and polyols, resulting in a material that can be processed like plastic but has the performance characteristics of rubber. TPU resins are typically used in applications requiring flexibility and toughness, such as automotive parts, footwear, and medical devices.
| Material type | Thermoplastic polyurethane |
| Hardness range | Shore A 70 to Shore D 50 |
| Temperature resistance | Up to 90°C (194°F) |
| Color options | Natural, black, and custom colors |
| Processing methods | Injection molding, extrusion, and thermoforming |
When choosing TPU resin, consider the specific hardness and temperature resistance required for your application. It's essential to specify the desired color and any processing method you plan to use, as these factors can influence the resin's performance. Additionally, inquire about certifications and compliance with industry standards relevant to your sector, especially for medical or automotive applications.
