    Description

    Product Name

    TPU Flame-retardant Grade Material

    Product Description

    A thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer that meets stringent fire safety standards.

    Key Characteristics

    1. Excellent Flame Retardancy: Typically achieves UL94 V-0 rating (at specific thicknesses), self-extinguishing.
    2. Eco-friendly & Safe: Mainstream products are Halogen-Free Flame Retardant (HFFR), featuring low smoke, low toxicity, and low corrosive gas emission upon combustion.

    Main Applications

    Mining cable jackets, rolling stock cables, high-end electronics cables (e.g., for robotics), industrial tubing requiring flame retardancy, safety equipment components, aerospace interior parts.

    Processing Methods

    Extrusion (cables, tubes), Injection Molding (components).

    Environmental & Safety Certs.

    UL94 (V-0, V-2, etc.), ROHSREACHHalogen-free (Cl, Br < 1500ppm), complies with specific industry standards like IEC 60332EN 45545-2 (railway).

    Color

    Black, orange, or other standard colors. Customizable (limited by flame retardant color).

    Storage Conditions

    Strictly moisture-proof. Store sealed in a dry environment (<30°C).

    Packaging

    25/20 kg/bag

    Parameter/Guideline

    Drying

    100-120°C / 4-6 hours (Absolutely mandatory, use a dehumidifying dryer)

    Melt Temperature

    185 - 215 °C (Strictly avoid excessive temperature to prevent flame retardant decomposition)

    Mold/Die Temperature

    30 - 60 °C

    Recommendation

    Use low-shear screws; minimize melt residence time in the barrel.

    Critical Precautions

    1. Temperature Sensitivity: Narrow processing window. Strictly avoid over-temperature, which deactivates flame retardants and may generate corrosive gases.
    2. Equipment & Mold Protection: For long-term production, consider anti-corrosion treatment for screws, barrels, and mold cavities, or use corrosion-resistant materials.

    Purge Suggestion

    After production, immediately purge thoroughly with ABS or HIPS at a reduced temperature (e.g., first lower to 180°C). Do NOT use PP or PE. Purge until extruded strands have no irritating odor.
