The difference between TPU Lamination Film and TPU film
TPU Lamination Film and TPU film are two different types of materials, and there are some differences in properties and applications. The following will introduce you to the difference between TPU composite film and TPU film in detail.
TPU composite film is a film made of thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) as a base material and compounded with other materials. Common composite methods include the composite of TPU with nylon cloth, polyester cloth, non-woven fabric and other materials. TPU composite film has the advantages of TPU and composite materials, while also exerting the characteristics of composite materials, with richer functionality and application fields.
TPU film overview
TPU film refers to a single material film made of thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) as raw material. TPU film has excellent physical and chemical properties, such as wear resistance, chemical corrosion resistance, and good flexibility, and can be widely used in many fields.
The following are the differences between TPU composite film and TPU film in several aspects:
Material composition:
TPU composite film: TPU is used as the base material for composite processing with other materials, such as nylon cloth, polyester cloth, non-woven fabric, etc.
TPU film: a single film made of pure TPU material.
Features:
TPU composite membrane: By combining with other materials, more functional properties can be obtained, such as waterproof, breathable, tear-resistant, etc.
TPU film: has excellent physical and chemical properties, such as wear resistance, chemical corrosion resistance, good flexibility, etc.
Applicable fields:
TPU composite film: Due to the characteristics of composite materials, it is suitable for a wider range of fields. Common applications include outdoor gear, sports equipment, footwear, apparel accessories, and more.
TPU film: Due to the characteristics of a single material, it is suitable for fields that require the excellent performance of TPU. Common applications include electronics, medical devices, automotive parts, and more.
Physical properties:
TPU composite film and TPU film have similar advantages in softness and wear resistance, but the tear resistance of the composite film may be better, thanks to the addition of composite materials.
Processing technology:
Since TPU composite film needs to be combined with other materials, the production process is relatively complex, involving composite technology, hot pressing and other processes.
The production process of TPU film is relatively simple, and is generally prepared by extrusion or calendering.
To sum up, there are some differences between TPU composite film and TPU film in terms of material composition, functional characteristics, applicable fields, physical properties and processing technology. Choosing the right material depends on the specific application requirements. Both TPU composite film and TPU film have their own advantages and application potential, and can meet the needs of different industries.
