Thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer (TPU) is a type of elastomer that can be plasticized by heating and dissolved by solvents. It has excellent comprehensive properties such as high strength, high toughness, wear resistance, and oil resistance. It has good processing performance and is widely used in national defense, medical, and Food and other industries.

Thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer, with its excellent performance and wide range of applications, has become one of the important thermoplastic elastomer materials. Its molecules are basically linear and have no or little chemical cross-linking. There are many physical cross-links composed of hydrogen bonds between linear polyurethane molecular chains. The hydrogen bonds strengthen its morphology, thus giving many excellent properties, such as high modulus, high strength, excellent wear resistance, and Chemical, hydrolysis, high temperature and mold resistance.

These good properties make thermoplastic polyurethane widely used in many fields such as shoes, cables, clothing, automobiles, medicine and health, pipes, films and sheets. The final product generally does not require vulcanization and cross-linking, which can shorten the reaction cycle and reduce energy consumption.

Since it is basically a linear structure polymer, it can be processed using the same technologies and equipment as thermoplastics, such as injection molding, extrusion, blow molding, calendering, etc. It is especially suitable for mass production of small and medium-sized parts. Waste materials can be recycled and reused, and different additives or fillers can be used during production or processing to improve certain physical properties and reduce costs.
