Directing the Pain Points: Why “Cheap” Cable Material Isn’t Actually Cheap

Before diving into our product, let’s look at the typical issues encountered during the production of low-cost TPU jacket materials:

• The Pain of “Slag Accumulation”: Materials modified with powder flame retardants suffer from poor compatibility between the powder and the base resin. During extrusion, this leads to accumulation and scorching at the screw and die head — requiring frequent downtime for cleaning and causing surface scratches on the cable.
• The Risk of “Bulging”: When inferior powders or impurities accumulate within the screw and are eventually carried out by the melt, they form protruding “bulges” on the smooth jacket surface. In high-speed production, this is fatal, leading directly to the scrapping of entire cable batches.
• Compromised Performance: To reduce costs, inferior base resins are often chosen, which drastically compromise weather resistance, hydrolysis resistance, and mechanical strength, failing to meet rigorous industry standards.

The Solution: One-Step Synthesis TPU Solves Problems at the Source

E185F-06M-18 is an 80°C temperature-rated modified TPU material. It uses polyether-type TPU as the primary base resin, integrated with matting agents, flame retardants, and antioxidants through a specialized blend-extrusion granulation process.

1. Liquid Flame Retardants & One-Step Synthesis

Unlike the powder-filled modifications common in the market, our technology utilizes a one-step synthesis process involving liquid flame retardants.

The Advantage: Flame-retardant components are uniformly dispersed within the molecular chains at the polymerization stage. This fundamentally solves the compatibility issue, eliminating slag accumulation and bulging caused by flame retardant precipitation. Your production line will run smoother without the headache of frequent die head cleaning.

2. Unrivaled Mechanical Performance and Compliance

• High Mechanical Strength: Boasts a tensile strength of 26 MPa and an elongation at break of 680%, ensuring the jacket remains tough and durable in complex installation environments.
• Strict Standard Compliance: Performance fully meets the requirements for TPU jackets specified in GB/T 33594 and BS EN 50620.
• Reliable Flame Retardancy: Achieves a UL94 V-2 rating, providing core safety assurance for charging cables.

3. Superior Weather Resistance and Processability

• Polyether Base Advantage: Provides excellent hydrolysis resistance and low-temperature toughness, passing the −40°C low-temperature embrittlement test. This ensures long-term stability in humid or freezing outdoor environments.
• Outstanding Matte Effect: Naturally achieves a uniform, high-end matte finish with a delicate tactile feel.
• Wide Processing Window: We provide detailed temperature settings and screw recommendations to ensure you can reach stable production quickly.

Processing and Packaging Guidelines

Screw Recommendation: BM (Barrier) Screw

To maximize the performance of TPU and maintain production stability, we recommend using a BM Screw (Barrier Screw), also known as a main-and-auxiliary thread screw:

• Barrier Structure: The barrier flight separates molten and solid materials, ensuring that only fully melted material enters the melt channel.
• High Plasticization Efficiency: Any un-melted small particles are subjected to high shear as they pass through the gap between the barrier flight and the barrel, improving the melting rate and quality.
• Stability: It offers low fluctuations in output, pressure, and temperature, which is essential for achieving a perfect surface on charging cable jackets.
• Recommended Specification: For TPU materials, a BM screw with a compression ratio of 3.0 or higher is suggested.

Drying, Packaging & Storage

• Drying Requirements: Must be dried at 90–110°C for 1–2 hours before use using a well-ventilated hopper dryer.
• Packaging: Net weight 25 ± 0.2 kg per bag, using moisture-proof PE or aluminum-plastic composite bags.
• Storage: Should be stored in a ventilated warehouse away from direct light.
