In fact, TPU materials are a type of material we frequently encounter in our daily lives. It's just that their components are often integrated into various carriers, and many times we don't give them much thought. For instance, the material source in electronic products is often sourced from anti-static TPU.
During the production of electronic products, TPU material has become an indispensable key player, as its properties and characteristics perfectly align with the characteristics of electronic products.
Generally, TPU material cases are quite common in the electronics market, such as our phone shells, tablet cases, and TPU watch bands. They hold a significant market share. This is because TPU products are recyclable, offering a major advantage of cost and resource savings, with reasonable pricing that is widely acceptable to the public.
Why do phone cases and smart watch bands use TPU materials? Why is the wear resistance of TPU elastomers so excellent? It's because of TPU's advantages such as wear resistance, elasticity, deformation recovery, and puncture resistance, which can rival other materials.
Generally, the wear of polymer materials is not only related to the material itself but also to the product being used. Once wear occurs, the degree of wear will be further increased by factors such as the generation of fragments, hardness, roughness of the friction surface, and the friction environment (e.g., multiple friction occurrences during the friction process). In terms of the material, increasing the interaction between materials and enhancing the product's hardness (e.g., by adding fillers) can improve wear resistance.
