TPU (thermoplastic polyurethanes) is thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer rubber. It is mainly divided into polyester type and polyether type. It is wear-resistant, oil-resistant, transparent and elastic. It is widely used in daily necessities, sporting goods, toys, decorative materials and other fields. Halogen free flame retardant TPU can also replace soft PVC to meet the environmental protection requirements in more and more fields.
Wide range of hardness: by changing the ratio of TPU reaction components, products with different hardness can be obtained, and with the increase of hardness, the products still maintain good elasticity and wear resistance.
High mechanical strength: TPU products have outstanding bearing capacity, impact resistance and shock absorption performance.
Outstanding cold resistance: the glass transition temperature of TPU is relatively low, and it still maintains good elasticity, flexibility and other physical properties at minus 35 ºC.

TPU products are usually granular. The processing methods includes injection, extrusion, calendaring, blow molding etc.
TPU can be used in many areas of our daily life. They can be used to make synthetic leather resin, adhesive, shoes sole and so on. It is a new generation of engineering plastics and is one of the economical and recyclable environmentally friendly plastic elastomers.
TPU is a kind of polymer material between rubber and plastic.
Wide range of hardness: By changing the portion of each raw material. We can get products with different hardness ranging from
55A to 90D.
High mechanical strength: objects made from TPU have excellent performance in carrying capacity, impact resistance and damping ability.
Extraordinary performance in cold resistance. TPU products still have good elasticity, compliance and other physical characteristics in extreme low temperature which can reach to -50ºC.
