THERMOPLASTIC POLYURETHANE is one of the existing varieties within the linear elastomer family and therefore a thermoplastic. Since it is a thermoplastic elastomer based on urethane, it is abbreviated TPE-U, but is commonly known as TPU (in English Thermoplastic Polyurethane)
In SUMIPARTS SAS we can process it by forming methods. We have the ability to develop different types of parts with high production volume and high quality standards. Within these processes we can find the following:
INJECTION MOLDING: We offer extensive experience in PLASTIC INJECTION process. We have the best work team to design and manufacture the molds. We have at your disposal state-of-the-art plastic injection machines with the possibility of developing different plastic products at a high production volume.
PLASTIC EXTRUSION: since TPU has the benefit of having a low melting point, we offer the ability to make applications such as “hotmelts”, and thus perform the extrusion of foils and sheets, with the possibility of obtaining geometries required by customers.
TPU is characterized by its high resistance to abrasion, oxygen, ozone and low temperatures. This combination of properties turns TPU into an engineering plastic, for this reason they are used in special applications
Benefit:
- High resistance to wear and abrasion
- High tensile and tear strength
- Very good damping capacity
- Very good flexibility at low temperatures
- High resistance to fats, oils, oxygen and ozone
- He’s tenacious.
- Excellent elastic recovery
- Light fastness
- TPU, an engineering plastic can be applied in the main automotive, industrial and construction sectors. Among these applications you can find: coatings for cables, hoses, tubes and profiles for machines and automobiles, elastic textile fiber, 3D printing filaments, automotive components, sports and personal protection items, shoe soles, mobile cases and among others
SUMIPARTS SAS has an experienced team of staff, who with their knowledge and skills can provide an excellent service and final product tailored to the needs.
