Lubrizol Engineered Polymers and Danquinsa Feature New Aliphatic, Non-Yellowing TPUs at Fakuma 2017
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
CLEVELAND, October 6, 2017 - The Lubrizol Corporation's Engineered Polymers
business will be featuring its latest non-yellowing thermoplastic polyurethane
(TPU) materials at Fakuma at its distributor Danquinsa GmbH's - booth #B4-4507-
in Friedrichshafen, Germany from 17 to 21 October 2017.
Lubrizol will showcase new technologies that enable customers to meet the latest
market trends in aesthetics and design, and integrate new technical benefits in
their products by using high-performing polymers. Lubrizol Engineered Polymers'
R&D experts have worked extensively on expanding their distinctive aliphatic TPU
technology portfolio with even more non-yellowing polymers that provide improved
weatherability and UV resistance as compared to other elastomeric materials.
Pearlthane((TM)) aliphatic TPU materials offer added value performance including
excellent haptics for very high demanding moulded applications in sports and
recreation, consumer and industrial markets.
Colour stable Pearlcoat((TM)) Activa D198K TPU, a soft low-gloss material, can
be applied in white and light-coloured parts as a thermoformed and co-extruded
solution.
Other segments where our non-yellowing material can be found include profile
extrusion and hot melt adhesives. The latest development, Pearlbond((TM)) 960
EXP, is an aliphatic TPU that brings a unique combination of features including
softness (69 shore A), durability (UV stable and resistant to fungi and
microorganisms) and a very high bonding strength to various substrates.
Pearlbond 960 EXP is even suitable for bonding delicate fabrics such as silk,
linen and cotton.
Pablo Alegre, new business development manager EMEAI, Engineered Polymers,
states, "Thanks to our technical expertise and careful attention to customer
needs, we have been able to provide solutions not only from a mechanical point
of view, but also in aesthetics and haptics. This creates valuable
differentiation in our portfolio and enables our customers to deliver
innovations and meet the evolving demands of their OEMs and final customers".
