Angreen Thermoplastic Polyurethane TPU Material For Wire And Cable

What is TPU Material?TPU Meaning

Thermoplastic Polyurethane TPU is an advanced polymer material that falls between elastomeric plastics and rubber. Thermoplastic Polyurethane is made through a chemical reaction involving diisocyanates (like MDI or TDI) and polyols (such as polyester or polyether).It can be categorized into ester-based and ether-based types. TPU can be produced for wire and cable applications using various polymer processing techniques, such as injection molding and extrusion. They possess characteristics like high and low temperature resistance, flame retardancy, abrasion resistance, and oil resistance. TPU is widely used in the manufacture of cables for electric vehicles, charging stations, marine floating cables, equipment, wire plugs, and medical cables.

Angreen is a professional TPU manufacturer and thermoplastic polyurethane supplier in China. We are one of the few TPU manufacturers on the market capable of providing halogen-free flame-retardant ether-based TPU material that meet VW-1 or IEC60332 flame retardancy testing requirements. Our modified TPU (TPU composites/Thermoplastic Polyurethane) and TPU cable sheath material technologies are at the forefront of large-scale industrial applications worldwide. Our thermoplastic polyurethane has achieved UL94 -V0 certification.
