Highly elastic, tear resistant, and resilient
EPU 40 offers a combination of tear strength, energy return, and elongation making it perfect for impact absorption, vibration isolation, gaskets, and seals. It is a good choice for applications where high elasticity and tear resistance are needed. It is comparable to commercial TPUs with a Shore A hardness of 70.
Example Applications
These applications combine a need for high elasticity, tear resistance, and energy damping, in addition to isotropy, great surface finish, and accuracy.
