What is TPU( thermoplastic polyurethane) granules ?
TPU name is thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer rubber, this material can soften at a certain heat, but can remain unchanged at room temperature. Used in shoes to stabilize the role of support.
The so-called elastomer refers to the glass transition temperature is lower than the room temperature, the elongation at break is >50%, and the resilience is relatively good after the external force is removed.
There are some of the main differences between polyether TPU and polyester TPU:
| Difference |
Polyether TPU |
Polyester TPU |
| Performance |
High strength, hydrolysis resistance, high resilience, good low temperature performance
|
Good tensile properties, flexural properties, wear resistance, solvent resistance and high temperature resistance
|
| Uses |
Suitable for the production of soft bubbles, hard bubbles, low density semi-hard bubbles, soft coatings, elastomers and adhesives, solid core and microporous elastomers
|
It is suitable for the processing and production of soft foam, hard foam, hard plastic and surface coating, high rebound soft foam

What is the hardness range of TPU resin ?
As an elastomer, TPU is a material between rubber and plastic, which can be seen from its rigidity, which can be measured by the elastic modulus. The elastic modulus of rubber is usually 1~10 MPa, TPU is 10~1000Mpa, and plastic (nylon, ABS, PC, POM) is 1000~10000Mpa.
The hardness range of TPU is quite wide, from Shore A 60 to Shore D 80, and it has high elasticity in the whole hardness range. TPU has a wide temperature range of -40~120 ° C and is flexible without the need for plasticizers. TPU has good resistance to oils (mineral oils, animal and vegetable oils and lubricants) and many solvents; TPU also has good weather resistance and excellent resistance to high-energy rays. The well-known wear resistance, tear resistance, flexion strength are excellent; High tensile strength, large elongation and low long-term compression permanent deformation rate are the significant advantages of TPU.

TPU resin thermoplastic polyurethane granules /pellets |
| Appearance |
High transparent/white ,customized color |
| Characteristics |
1. A wide range of hardness: by changing the ratio of each reaction component of TPU, products with different hardness can be obtained, and with the increase of hardness, the product still maintains good elasticity and wear resistance.
2. High mechanical strength:TPU products have outstanding bearing capacity, impact resistance and shock absorption performance.
3. 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 degrees.
4. Good processing performance :TPU can be processed by common thermoplastic material processing methods, such as injection molding, extrusion, calendering and so on. At the same time, TPU and some polymer materials can be processed together to obtain complementary polymer alloys.
5. Resistant to oil, water and mold.
6. Good reproducibility. |

Various applications of TPU extrusion-molded products:
Cable sheath: TPU is widely used to make a variety of cable sheath, such as geophysical cables, field operation cables, mining cables, railway cables, special electrical cables, tow chain cables, spiral cables, aerospace communication cables, etc. 1.
Tube casing: TPU is also commonly used in the production of various tubes and tubes, including pneumatic pipes, hydraulic pipes, bellows, irrigation pipes, oil pipelines, oil exploration pipelines, shale gas pipelines, fire hose linings, sewage treatment aerators, etc. 1.
Film sheet: TPU can produce film and sheet by extrusion process, these products can be used in disposable medical supplies, protective clothing, bandages, isolation equipment, inflatable products, footwear fabrics, footwear accessories, upholstery, foldable containers, life rafts, life jackets, high-grade clothing fabrics (waterproof and moisture permeable) and other fields.
Extruded profiles: TPU can also be used to produce various extruded profiles, such as composite plates, elevator handrails, transmission belts, synchronization belts, seals, etc. These products usually have the characteristics of good low temperature flexibility, wear resistance, scratch resistance, resistance to repeated bending, non-toxic environmental protection, high rebound and so on.
