Huntsman Group, a global manufacturer of specialty and specialty chemicals, demonstrated elastomer technology at Chinaplas, and launched two new TPU products for the footwear industry, as well as two major applications for films and sheets. TPU product line.
At this exhibition, Huntsman will focus on 'Shaping the New World' to exhibit a series of products and promote the two major TPU technologies for the production of high-performance films and sheets, KRYSTALGRAN® and KRYSTALFLEX®.
KRYSTALGRAN® TPU includes a full range of aliphatic resins to produce durable, lightweight, stable protective films and barrier films. Films made from KRYSTALGRAN® TPU have excellent performance in both optical and non-optical applications. The film can be used as a protective film for tablet computers and smartphones. In addition, this film is also widely used in the protection of automotive painting process, to prevent the paint surface from scratching, and can be applied to construction, flooring, shoe materials, graphics and textiles. application.
KRYSTALFLEX® TPU is the standard binder for laminated glass in the glass industry. This technology makes it easier to produce strong, wear-resistant composite glasses that perform better than pure glass. KRYSTALFLEX® TPU is compatible with glass, acrylics and polycarbonates. In a wide temperature range, it can form strong adhesion with different base layers, excellent physical properties. Typical applications include the addition of bullet-proof safety glass.
Huntsman's latest elastomer innovations for the footwear industry include AVALON® 55 AHG TPU and AVALON® ABDI TPU. Among them, AVALON® ABDI TPU is a new TPU product with a fast cycle time. When manufacturing injection molded parts, AVALON® ABDI TPU is easy to use. Demoulding helps shoe manufacturers increase productivity. AVALON® 55 AHG TPU is a new soft sole material that enhances the slip-resistance of shoe materials on dry and wet surfaces. AVALON® 55AHG TPU Shao Its hardness is 55A, so it can be used to produce a variety of soft, light and thin, high definition, strong grip, with a variety of different colors of footwear products.
The products of this exhibition are also:
IROGRAN® K TPU - Polycaprolactone-based and polyether-based products for the production of high-performance injection-molded parts such as seals, wheels and rollers. The IROGRAN® K-series TPU products are not only easy to process but also have good compression set properties. Extreme temperature and humidity conditions still have excellent wear resistance.
SUPRASEC® prepolymer can be used to produce various types of wheels. It has excellent wear resistance and tear resistance and can be widely used in wheelchairs, trolleys, electric vehicles and automation equipment.
TECNOTHANE elastomer systems - an advanced product portfolio of ready-to-manufacture thermoset polyurethane elastomer systems, including MDI prepolymer combinations based on a variety of polyols and chain extenders. These innovative materials can be used for production Durable rollers, seals, rollers, pads and other technical components for industrial, manufacturing and transportation applications.
During the rubber and plastic exhibition, the Huntsman team held three technical exchange meetings in the M6-03 conference room on April 26, 2018, two in the morning and one in the afternoon. The topics for the three lectures are as follows:
High performance and aliphatic TPU innovative solutions
Application of SUPRASEC® MDI Products in the Field of Elastomers
The new engine for innovation and development of the shoe industry
