As this material gradually comes to our daily life more, our opportunities to interact with it are also increasing day by day. But What is TPU? Is it safe for our body?

    First we need to know What Is TPU.

Thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) is a type of thermoplastic elastomer that is widely used in various industries due to its excellent properties and versatility. TPUs are block copolymers of polyethers or polyesters with classic polyurethanes. During polymerization, different raw materials are combined to adjust various properties of the material, and in some cases, compounding with various additives is also carried out.

TPU are known for their excellent properties such as high elongation and high strength, which makes them suitable for a wide range of applications. TPU are resistant to abrasion and chemicals, which makes them ideal for use in industrial applications. They are also widely used in the automotive industry due to their excellent resistance to abrasion, weathering, and fatigue.

TPU have good resistance to oil, grease, and solvents, which makes them ideal for use in the manufacturing of medical devices. TPU are also used in the production of sports bag, particularly hiking bags, cooler bags, motorcycle bags as they provide excellent waterproof, tear resistance and insulation function.

TPU are available in a range of hardnesses, from very soft to very hard. This allows them to be used in a variety of applications, from flexible tubing to rigid automotive parts. TPU can be extruded, injection-molded, or blow-molded, which makes them versatile and easy to work with.
