Thermoplastic Polyurethanes (TPU) are unique products with different properties that are interesting for a great variety of applications:
- High resistance against washing and cleaning methods (textile applications)
- High elasticity within complete hardnesses range
- Good resistance against oils, fats and many solvents
- Free of plasticizers
- […]
Therefore TPU finds utilization in many areas such as textile, sport- and leisure industry, military, medical or automotive.
The product series ROWALIT® 500 usually covers a melting range of 55-145°C.
