Cleveland, October 11, 2017 - Lubrizol announced that its specialty polymer division will join VELOX GMBH, its distributor, from October 17 to 21, 2017, in Friedrichshafen, Germany Organized by the Fakuma 2017 exhibition, booth number B5-5001.
Lubrizol will focus on its Estane® TPU (thermoplastic polyurethane) solution for compounds, BounCell-XTM TPU microporous foam, Estane TPU for robotic cables and high traction Estane TRX TPU polymer technology Latest research results:
The BounCell-X TPU microporous foam is manufactured using a patented physical foam injection molding technology with an extremely uniform pore structure with a density of less than 80% higher than that of conventional molded TPUs. In addition, BounCell-X uses nitrogen as a blowing agent and does not contain Any additional chemical additives are therefore well suited for brands that need to implement sustainable development goals and post-consumer recycling programs.
• Smokeless halogen-free flame retardant thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) designed for wire and cable applications for robotic and industrial applications, such as excellent flexibility and durability. Estane TPU products for the robot industry to withstand the tension and Mechanical stress provides a high-performance solution that helps to achieve thinning of wire and cable sheaths.
The Estane TPU product portfolio includes many grades that can be used as additives for heavy applications to achieve extremely tough compounds, and can be used as modifiers for other polymers to improve the original properties or to avoid regulatory restrictions such as PVC Vinyl chloride) or other materials in the plasticizer.
The Estane TRX TPU is a high-traction TPU for footwear that enables designers to design soles with higher abrasion resistance and stronger wet traction, with a wide selection of colors and even ultra-transparent colors Use the company's own injection molding machine can produce. Can provide soft grades.
"Our specialty polymer solutions are endless in our industrial and sports markets, and our high-performance materials have the strength of metal or rubber, as well as softness," said Fabio Morelli, distribution manager for EMEA, a special polymer of Lubrizol Specialty Polymers. , Environmental protection and durability. Lubrizol offers a durable solution that goes beyond standard elastomer performance.
