What is TPU composite fabric/fabric?
The name of TPU composite fabric/cloth is thermoplastic elastomer rubber. This material can become soft under a certain heat, but can remain unchanged at room temperature. It is used for shoes to play a role of stable support.
TPU composite fabric/cloth (Thermoplastic polyurethanes): Thermoplastic elastomer rubber. A plastic material that can repeatedly soften or change under a certain heat, but it can maintain its shape at room temperature. It can provide support and protection Function. Located in the midsole of the shoe (not necessarily, it will be used in many places)
The main characteristics of TPU composite fabric/cloth
The main characteristics of TPU composite fabric/cloth are:
Wide range of hardness: By changing the ratio of the reaction components of the TPU composite fabric/cloth, products with different hardness can be obtained, and as the hardness increases, the product still maintains good elasticity and wear resistance.
High mechanical strength: TPU composite fabric/cloth products have outstanding bearing capacity, impact resistance and shock absorption performance.
Outstanding cold resistance: The glass transition temperature of TPU composite fabric/cloth is relatively low, and it still maintains good elasticity, flexibility and other physical properties at minus 35 degrees.
Good processing performance: TPU composite fabric/cloth can be processed by common thermoplastic materials processing methods, such as injection molding, extrusion, calendering and so on. At the same time, TPU composite fabrics/cloths can be processed together with certain polymer materials to obtain polymer alloys with complementary properties.
It is resistant to oil, water and mold.
Good recyclability.
The main use of TPU composite fabric/cloth
Uses of various TPU composite fabrics/fabric molded products:
Automobile parts spherical coupling; dust cover; pedal brake; door lock striker; bushing
Leaf spring bushings; bearings; shockproof parts; interior and exterior decorative parts; snow chains, etc.
Various gears for machinery and industrial parts; seals (mainly for wear and oil resistance); shockproof parts; mold-taking needles; bushings; bearing caps; connectors; rubber screens; printing rubber rollers and other clothing accessories Belts, elastic bands for clothing, etc. Footwear softball shoes, baseball shoes, golf shoes, soccer shoes soles and shoe forefoot
Ladies' heels; ski boots; safety boots, high-end soles, etc.
Self-positioning wheels; handles; straps and other pipes and hoses, high-pressure pipes; medical pipes; hydraulic pipes; pneumatic pipes; fuel pipes;
Rotating belt (with a certain stretching effect); air cushion; diaphragm; keyboard board; composite cloth and other wires and cables; power communication cables; computer wiring; automobile wiring; exploration cables, etc.
Various ring-shaped pipelines; round belts; V-belts; timing belts; non-slip belts and other calendered soft grooves and tanks; film composite sheet luggage fabrics, etc. blow molding various vehicle boxes; various containers with ultra-thin blown film , Wide film (medical and sanitary products)
Solution welding material; adhesive; artificial leather, synthetic leather, rope, iron wire, gloves and other coatings. TPU is thermoplastic polyurethane, which is divided into polyester and polyether. It has a wide range of hardness (60HA-85HD), wear resistance, It is oil-resistant, transparent, and elastic. It is widely used in daily necessities, sporting goods, toys, decorative materials and other fields. Halogen-free flame-retardant TPU can also replace soft PVC to meet environmental protection requirements in more and more fields. There are many brands of TPU, and the quality is uneven. It is best to go through detailed evaluation and demonstration when choosing TPU, otherwise the best cost-effective result will not be obtained.
TPU composite fabric/cloth This material can become soft under a certain heat, but can remain unchanged at room temperature. It is used in shoes for more stability and support. TPU composite fabric/cloth is also called polyurethane rubber, which is made of polyurethane A relatively new product in China, widely used in the shoe industry, pipes... and other industries.
