TPU thick film refers to a relatively thick film material made from thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer through casting, calendering, and other processes. Its thickness generally ranges from 0.1 mm (100 μm) to 2.0 mm (2000 μm). It offers superior strength and durability, capable of withstanding significant pressure and impact.
Based on chemical structure, TPU thick films are classified into polyester-based and polyether-based types.
① Polyester-based TPU Film
Characterized by high strength, good elongation, and excellent abrasion resistance , polyether-based TPU film is suitable for products such as raincoats, inflatable mattresses, footwear materials, and various industrial air airbags etc .
② Polyether-based TPU Film
Features excellent hydrolysis resistance, good low-temperature performance, and mold resistance; while slightly lower in strength, it offers greater toughness, making it suitable for water sports gear, inflatable products, medical equipment etc.
