ETPU (Expanded Thermoplastic Polyurethane): Performance, Parameters, Applications, Testing, and Material Selection
ETPU (Expanded Thermoplastic Polyurethane) can be understood as a lightweight, highly resilient “popcorn” material. Through physical foaming technology, countless closed micro-cells are formed inside the TPU, combining the high toughness, abrasion resistance, and low-temperature re...Read more -
Differences between Polyether TPU and Polyester TPU
Thermoplastic Polyurethane (TPU) is divided into polyether-based TPU and polyester-based TPU, depending on the type of long-chain diol used in synthesis. Their structural differences lead to distinct performance, processing characteristics and application ranges. 1. Molecular Structure & Ra...Read more -
Polyether TPU Extruded Tubing
Polyether-based thermoplastic polyurethane (polyether TPU) is widely processed into extruded tubing via continuous extrusion. Thanks to its outstanding hydrolysis resistance, low-temperature flexibility, microbial resistance and excellent mechanical properties, polyether TPU tubing has become a ...Read more -
TPU at a Glance
1.The Essentials: Three Inputs Create a “Melt-Processable Rubber” Long-chain diol (polyol) Forms the soft segment: elasticity, low-temperature flexibility and rebound. Its chemistry governs water, oil and weather resistance. Diisocyanate Combines with the chain extender to form...Read more -
TPU for Aircraft and Automotive Bladder Fuel Tanks
In aircraft and automotive fuel tank applications, TPU selection is not based on “fuel resistance” alone. It must be based on a comprehensive evaluation of contact media, temperature range, service life, and safety standards. The key selection parameters are added below. I. TPU for Aircraft Blad...Read more -
