Comparison Between TPU-Ester and TPU-Ether

Ester-based TPU compounds stand out with their excellent mechanical properties, good damping behavior, and strong weather resistance.

Typical applications: footwear, safety shoes, rollers, wheels, vibration dampers, micro injection molding

Ether-based TPU compounds excel in environments requiring hydrolysis resistance, microbial resistance, and high chemical stability.

Typical applications: seals, conveyor belts, underwater equipment, equestrian gear, and sports equipment for low-temperature conditions
