hermoplastic polyurethane elastomer and thermoplastic polyurethane rubber, referred to as TPU,
is a kind of (AB) n type block linear polymers, A (1000~6000) of high molecular weight polyether
or polyester glycol B containing 2~12 carbon atoms, AB chain segment chemical structure is diisocyanate.
Thermoplastic polyurethane rubber is crosslinked by intermolecular hydrogen bond or slightly cross-linked
between macromolecular chains, with the increase of temperature or lower, the two cross linked structures
are reversible. In the molten state or in the solution state, the intermolecular force is reduced, and the cooling
or solvent evaporation and strong intermolecular force are connected together to restore the properties of the
original solid. A typical TPU such as spandex etc..
Thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer (TPU) is a kind of heating elastomer plasticizing, solvent soluble, high
strength, high toughness, abrasion resistance, oil and other excellent comprehensive performance, good processing
performance, widely used in national defense, medical, food and other industries
