Medical TPU is used in healthcare applications because it can combine softness, flexibility, transparency and mechanical strength. Material selection should be based on final device requirements, processing method and required testing support.
TPU can provide soft touch, flexibility and elastic recovery for tubing, catheters and wearable medical parts.
TPU supports tensile strength, tear resistance and durability in flexible healthcare applications.
Selected TPU grades can support transparent or translucent medical tubing and fluid transfer components.
Medical applications should be evaluated according to required biocompatibility, sterilization and regulatory testing needs.
Recommended for flexible medical tubing and applications requiring hydrolysis resistance and softness.
View Polyether TPUCan be considered for flexible components, seals and applications requiring compression resistance.
View Polycaprolactone TPUSuitable for selected transparent or non-yellowing applications where optical appearance is important.
View Aliphatic TPU| Medical Application | Recommended Material | Key Requirements |
|---|---|---|
| Medical tubing | Polyether TPU | Softness, flexibility, hydrolysis resistance |
| Catheter-related parts | Selected medical TPU grades | Biocompatibility support, flexibility |
| Transparent components | Aliphatic TPU | Clarity, non-yellowing performance |
Longyixing Chemicals can help evaluate TPU options for tubing, catheters, films and flexible healthcare applications.
