CLEVELAND, Ohio, Nov 9, 2018 - (ACN Newswire) - The Lubrizol Corporation announces that its Engineered Polymers business will exhibit at Formnext 2018, the world's leading trade fair for additive manufacturing, to be held November 13-16, in Frankfurt, Germany. Lubrizol will showcase innovative TPU solutions from its new Estane(R) 3DP Thermoplastic Polyurethane (TPU) portfolio in Hall 3.0 at Booth A90.
Aligned with the show's goal to inspire visitors to design new parts using 3DP, Lubrizol will showcase commercial parts using Estane(R) 3DP TPU in Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) technology, as well as developmental parts based on Estane(R) TPU powder and HP(R) Multi Jet Fusion(TM) (MJF) technology. Featured applications include footwear, consumer electronics and automotive.
The Estane(R) 3DP TPU portfolio maintains all the unique attributes typically expected of Estane(R) TPU, including a wide range of hardness (Shore A 70 to Shore D 80), high flexibility at a wide range of temperatures, UV resistance, superior mechanical properties, good dimensional stability, a high level of transparency, and more. These benefits are transferred into the final 3D printed parts, even in custom and complex parts, bringing new freedom in design.
"Lubrizol Engineered Polymers is strongly committed to expanding our offering of Estane(R) 3DP TPU solutions for both filament and powder processes by working together with key stakeholders in the value chain through a sustainable and application-driven approach," states David Pascual, Lubrizol's global marketing manager for 3D printing. He continues, "By having our customers at the core, we are building a portfolio of differentiated solutions enabling the design of parts never before considered using traditional manufacturing processes. Estane(R) 3DP TPU solutions bring innovative, sustainable and flexible options to the 3DP market."
