BASF launches new Elastollan 1400 TPU series
BASF launches new ether-based thermoplastic polyurethane Elastollan 1400.
The new TPU series offers excellent hydrolysis and antimicrobial resistance combined with stable processing and good compression set properties. The material has excellent burst pressure properties and can be processed by extrusion and injection molding. The aging stability of Elastollan 1400 ensures long-lasting performance - a versatile choice for a wide range of applications.
The 1400 series has unique dynamic properties, which stem from a discrete glass transition temperature (Tg) and an extended viscoelastic plateau. These properties contribute to improved dimensional stability and a wider range of thermal applications.
After more than two years of research, experimental grades for specific applications and processing technologies are now available for sampling.
