Lubrizol draws upon decades of innovation, combining specialty thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU), copolymers, and static-dissipative polymer technologies to provide a single, convenient and reliable source with multiple product groups working together to solve some of today’s toughest challenges.
ESTANE®
TPU
The ESTANE TPU portfolio bridges the gap between
flexible rubber and rigid plastics. ESTANE is a highly versatile, thermoplastic
elastomers that can be utilized in additive manufacturing, film and sheet, extrusion, blow molding,
injection molding, over molding, calendaring and solution coating processes.
ESTANE® ECO TPU
ESTANE ECO is part of Lubrizol’s bio-based* TPU made with renewable material content from 28% of total volume.
Estaloc™ RETPU
Estaloc reinforced engineering TPUs (RETPU) are tough, high-flex modulus
materials providing dimensional stability, paintability with no primers, and
excellent adhesion to a variety of over molding substrates.
Isoplast® ETP
Isoplast engineered thermoplastics (ETP) are hard and high flexural modulus
polyurethane engineering resins with excellent chemical resistance and barrier
properties.
Pearlbond™ TPU
Pearlbond crystalline TPU is a cost-saving formulation for the production of
Hot Melt Adhesives (HMA) and Reactive Hot Melts (HMPUR), typically used in automotive interior parts,
bookbinding, furniture, textile and footwear.
Pearlbond™
ECO TPU
Pearlbond ECO is part of Lubrizol’s bio-based* TPU with renewable material content and very high thermoplasticity. Pearlbond ECO 590 can be added to HMPUR formulations to improve crystallization speed and also used for Hot Melt adhesives in heat sealable fabrics and in toe puffs and counters.
Pearlcoat™ TPU
Pearlcoat is a range of special linear polyurethanes used in the melt coating
process on textile substrates obtained by extrusion and calendaring and PVC compounding.
Pearlstick™ TPU
A wide range of linear thermoplastic
polyurethane elastomers specially developed for use as raw materials in the
manufacture of a wide variety of solvent-based adhesives.
Pearlthane™
TPU
Pearlthane is a versatile TPU uniquely developed to meet
the needs of a wide variety of technical applications that require soft
touch, non-yellowing, fast-cycling, transparent, or high performance technologies. This material can be processed by injection molding, extrusion, overmolding, coextrusion or compounding.
Carbo-Rite™ Conductive Compounds
Carbo-Rite conductive compounds and sheet products provide permanent ESD (electrostatic dissipative) solutions.
Stat-Rite® Static
Dissipative Sheet and Compounds
Stat-Rite polymers set the
new standard for test and design engineers requiring permanent static
dissipation without compromising cleanliness. Unlike old technologies, such
as conductive fillers and chemical anti-stats, Stat-Rite polymers blend a
proprietary, inherently dissipative polymer with a variety of base polymers.
