Thermoplastic PU grades.Lightfast grades of the thermoplastic A polymer material that turns to liquid when heated and becomes solid when cooled. There are more than 40 types of thermoplastics, including acrylic, polypropylene, polycarbonate and polyethylene. polyurethane (TPU TPU - Text Processing Utility ) Desmopan/Texin, developed for covering all kinds of textile yarn, are said to be opening up design possibilities never before imagined, according to according to prep. 1. As stated or indicated by; on the authority of: according to historians. 2. In keeping with: according to instructions. 3. the company. The materials, which are based on aliphatic aliphatic /al·i·phat·ic/ (al?i-fat´ik) pertaining to any member of one of the two major groups of organic compounds, those with a straight or branched chain structure. al·i·phat·ic adj. isocyanates and polyethers, are said to display virtually no yellowing when subjected to long-term exposure to UV light. This means that they can be pigmented with any color, including bright colors. Their chief attraction is said to be their transparency, which allows users to see the yarn inside. In combination with fancy yarns, this is set to open the door to completely new, appealing textile designs, according to the company. TPU has long been used to cover yarns that are processed into covers for automobile seats, where its high resistance to tear, tear propagation and wear is valued, according to the company. The resultant fabrics are said to be robust and long-lasting. A further argument for using TPU is that it is free of plasticizers plasticizers mostly triaryl phosphates, such as tricresyl, triphenyl phosphates, which are poisonous. See also triorthocresyl phosphate. and halogens, and thus meets the strict emission requirements for automotive interiors, according to the company. (Bayer MaterialScience AG) Circle 108 on card |
