High-transparency TPU Elastic Band

High-transparency TPU elastic band is a type of elastic strip material made from thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU), characterized by high transparency. It is widely used in apparel, home textiles, and other fields. ### Key Features – **High Transparency**: With a light transmittance of over 85% for some products, it can blend seamlessly with fabrics of any color, eliminating color difference issues associated with traditional elastic bands. It also enables effects and enhances three-dimensionality when layered with lace or hollowed-out fabrics. – **Excellent Elasticity**: Boasting an elongation at rebound of 150% – 250%, its elasticity is 2 – 3 times that of ordinary rubber. It maintains high resilience after repeated stretching, providing strong support for areas like waists and cuffs, and resists deformation even with long-term use. – **Lightweight and Soft**: Customizable to a thickness of 0.1 – 0.3mm, the ultra-thin 0.12mm specification offers a “second skin” feel. It is soft, lightweight, thin, and highly flexible, ensuring comfortable, seamless wear. – **Durable**: Resistant to acids, alkalis, oil stains, and seawater corrosion, it can withstand over 500 machine washes without shrinking or breaking. It retains good elasticity and flexibility in temperatures ranging from -38℃ to +138℃. – **Eco-friendly and Safe**: Certified by standards like Oeko-Tex 100, it decomposes naturally when incinerated or buried. The production process contains no thermosetting adhesives or phthalates, making it non-irritating for direct skin contact. ### Specifications – **Width**: Regular widths range from 2mm to 30mm, with customization available upon request. – **Thickness**: Common thicknesses are 0.1mm – 0.3mm, with some products as thin as 0.12mm. ### Applications – **Apparel**: Widely used in mid-to-high-end knitted garments, swimwear, underwear, casual sportswear, etc. It suits elastic parts such as shoulders, cuffs, hems,  and can be made into various straps for bras and underwear. .
