Introduction to TPU Tape

Thermoplastic Polyurethane (TPU) tape is a type of adhesive material made from TPU, a versatile polymer offering a unique combination of strength, flexibility, and resistance to abrasion and weather. TPU tape is used in various industries due to its durability and adaptability.

Applications of TPU Tape

TPU tape is utilized across multiple applications. The following are some key industries and specific uses:

  • Textile Industry: Used for seam sealing in waterproof clothing, TPU tape provides water resistance up to 5,000 mm H2O pressure.
  • Automotive Industry: TPU tape serves as a protective barrier against corrosion and abrasion, withstanding temperatures ranging from -40°C to 110°C.
  • Medical Sector: Used in the manufacturing of wearable medical devices, the biocompatibility of TPU ensures safe patient contact.
  • Electronics: Protects wiring and circuitry, maintaining performance in humidity levels up to 90% RH.

Comparison with Other Adhesives

Compared to traditional adhesive tapes, TPU tape offers superior performance metrics:

  • Flexibility: TPU tape elongates up to 300%, whereas typical PVC tape stretches only 150% before breaking.
  • Durability: Provides a lifespan of up to 10 years, outperforming standard vinyl tapes which last around 5 years.
  • Weather Resistance: Withstands UV radiation, retaining over 90% of its tensile strength after 3 months of exposure.
