Lubrizol Engineered Polymers has launched Estane(R) 3D TPU F95A-030 BR ECO, a UV-stabilized thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU), with shore 95A hardness, that is processed by Fused Filament Fabrication (FFF). It provides a differentiated value proposition for designers looking for a high-performing polymer that shows improved flexibility, thin walls, high transparency and superior layer-to-layer bonding performance. The new grade complements the existing commercial Estane 3D TPU portfolio that has grown after close collaboration with customers to cover a broad range of 3DP applications in automotive, dental, sports and industrial sectors.
David Pascual, global 3DP marketing manager, says, "Estane(R) 3D ECO TPU is part of our strategy to build our FFF portfolio based upon customer and market requirements, ensuring same or superior level of properties both for prototype and mass production opportunities, along with the renewability feature." Pascual adds, "Results are overwhelming, and we will continue to strive to increase our polymer portfolio for 3D printing."
In addition to new FFF grades, Lubrizol is working on a full range of TPU solutions suitable for different 3DP technologies such as Selective Laser Sintering (SLS), High Speed Sintering (HSS) and HP(R) Multi Jet Fusion(TM) (MJF).
