Features of TPU hot melt adhesive film:
TPU hot-melt adhesive film possesses the excellent properties of conventional TPU films, as well as the heat-melting adhesion performance characteristic of hot-melt adhesive films. Conventional TPU films exhibit high tensile strength, good flexibility and bendability, weather resistance, water resistance, resistance to hydrolysis, transparency, resistance to yellowing, comfort when in contact with human skin, ease of processing, and many other advantageous features.
In terms of hot-melt adhesion, TPU material can bond exceptionally well with a wide variety of materials and exhibits high bonding strength. As a result, TPU hot-melt adhesive films are becoming a new hotspot in both the TPU application industry and the hot-melt adhesive industry, attracting increasing attention from an ever-expanding range of application fields and enjoying increasingly widespread use. Overall, the key characteristics of TPU hot-melt adhesive films include high elasticity, high toughness, weather resistance, resistance to washing and dry cleaning, softness and excellent hand feel, strong adhesion performance, compatibility with various materials, and environmental friendliness.
Applications in apparel and footwear:
1. Professional outerwear: Can be used to enhance product performance or improve its aesthetic appeal; in particular, key areas can be equipped with seamless fits or waterproof strips.
2. Functional clothing: This type of clothing primarily leverages the exceptional elasticity, softness, hydrolysis resistance, lightweight nature, and excellent compatibility with other textile fabrics of hot-melt TPU films. At the same time, it achieves shaping effects and relies heavily on seamless bonding technology.
3. Underwear: Primarily utilizes the softness and high elasticity of TPU hot-melt adhesive films. The highly resilient TPU elastomer meets the demands of enhanced design, superior performance, and greater flexibility in manufacturing.
4. Footwear and Socks: TPU hot-melt adhesive films can bond various materials, delivering lighter and more durable results. The bonding process does not require solvents, making it more environmentally friendly. Moreover, the application process is versatile and easy to implement, enhancing efficiency. Using TPU hot-melt adhesive films for bonding enables the creation of smooth, wrinkle-free seams that meet both aesthetic and comfort requirements. Additionally, these bonded seams offer excellent performance in terms of water resistance, abrasion resistance, hydrolysis resistance, and weather resistance.
