Polyester Polyurethane Film - High Strength & Abrasion Resistance
Polyester Polyurethane film is the workhorse of TPU materials. Known for its high tensile strength, abrasion resistance, and long-term durability, this thermoplastic polyurethane film performs exceptionally well in demanding industrial applications.
When heated, polyester TPU acts as an adhesive, which is ideal for textile labeling, emblems, and ID systems. It also offers excellent chemical resistance, withstanding exposure to fuels, solvents, and harsh environments. From fuel bladders to machine shop protection films, polyester TPU delivers high-quality performance across industries.
Key Features of Our Polyester TPU Film
High Tensile Strength and Tear Resistance
Highly Puncture-Resistant and built for abrasion-heavy environments
Withstands Contact with Fuels or Solvents
Performs well in low temperatures with lasting elasticity
Excellent Heat-Activated Adhesive for lamination and bonding
Ultrasonic & Radio Frequency Weldable
Excellent for Use in Helium Containment Bladders
Available for multi-layer composites, liners, and substrate coatings
Common Use Cases & Industry Applications
Polyester TPU film is a durable solution used in:
Conveyor belts, puncture-resistant liners, and industrial coatings
Textile laminations and multi-layer composites
Medical devices, vests, and automotive trim
Hot melt adhesives, sheet products, and extrusion applications
Its strength, formability, and breathability make it a preferred choice in high-wear environments where other materials may fail.
Material Characteristics & Considerations
Aromatic polyester polyurethane offers better aging and durability in abrasive environments than many other TPU types. It holds up to extreme wear but unlike polyether TPU, it will eventually degrade in high-humidity environments due to lower hydrolytic stability.
If your application requires exceptional performance in moisture-prone environments, consider our polyether TPU film alternative.
