BASF promotes TPU technology in North America

Recently, BASF's Elastollan TPU business began to promote its HPM technology in the North American market, which is used to produce TPU soft components without the use of plasticizers, but meets the requirements for heat resistance, strength and processing. BASF has developed and promoted this technology in Europe.


In the past, thermoplastics with a strength of 70 shoreA or less and high mechanical properties were required to have a plasticizer, but this would reduce the support of the hot part of the product or harden the soft part again. TPUs with plasticizers of less than 70 shore A are difficult to produce and are difficult to meet quality standards even when produced.


BASF's Elastollan TPU business developed a SPF series of TPUs with a plasticizer-free hardness of 50-70 Shore A last year. The HPM series was developed this year to further enhance the heat resistance and processing efficiency of the products. Scratch resistance and long service life.


HPM technology will be used primarily in automotive and electronics, and BASF will use its global network to expand the market for this product in North America and the rest of the world.
