Under the global wave of low-carbon and environmental protection, bio-based materials have become a hot material due to their low-carbon, environmental protection and sustainability, and their environmental friendliness after disposal.
As one of the most widely used thermoplastic elastomers, TPU is not far behind in its bio-based development.
According to statistics, every ton of bio-based TPU can reduce carbon emissions by 20%-40%. Bio-based TPU has made a significant contribution to the realization of the dual carbon goals and has a very large market.
What is bio-based TPU?
Bio-based TPU, some raw materials are derived from renewable natural resources (such as cornstarch, wheat, potato, cellulose, etc.), using biological, chemical and physical methods, through refining, fermentation, synthesis and other procedures.
Compared with traditional petroleum-based TPU, bio-based TPU has the same performance advantages and characteristics, and the application is roughly the same.
It has excellent wear resistance, mechanical strength, chemical resistance, etc., and meets the needs of high-performance and durable products. It is suitable for extrusion, injection molding, etc., and has a wide range of end uses.
