Lubrizol and VELOX Highlight Innovative Solutions at K 2016
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
CLEVELAND, September 9, 2016 - The Lubrizol Corporation's Engineered Polymers
business announces that it will highlight its latest thermoplastic polyurethane
(TPU) solutions alongside its distributor VELOX(®) GmbH at K 2016 from October
19-26, 2016 in Hall 6, booth A23.
At K 2016 Lubrizol's Engineered Polymers team will focus on the following recent
TPU developments for improved mechanical properties:
* Novel aliphatic TPU expanding the broadest portfolio of color-stable (non-
yellowing) and superior staining- and UV-resistant TPU solutions for the
design of transparent or light-colored molded parts.
* New self-healing Estane(®) VSN 9000 TPU: Lightweight material (more than
50% lower than metal) designed to improve the performance of aesthetically-
critical parts by reducing scratches.
* High-adhesion, soft Pearlbond(TM) 300 plasticizer-free series for bonding of
any substrates in the textile market, even difficult ones. The outstanding
elasticity of the new soft TPU gives a freedom of movement, as well as
comfort and soft touch.
* New high-performance BounCell-X(TM) TPU foam: Nitrogen-gas-infused low
density recyclable foam providing long-term cushioning and protection in
footwear, electronics, protective equipment and automotive applications.
* New fast and high-heat resistant Pearlbond(TM) 700 series: High-performing
solutions for fast setting bonding with good mechanical properties at low
temperatures.
Jesus Santamaria, Lubrizol Engineered Polymers' EMEAI business director, notes,
"Lubrizol has more than 55 years of experience in engineered polymers and the
broadest TPU portfolio available. We apply our industry leading knowledge to
develop innovative materials to help inventors and engineers deliver next-
