Boost is an E-TPU material developed by BASF in 2007. Foamed thermoplastic polyurethane is a crystalline physical foaming material, which is non-toxic, odorless, degradable and more environmentally friendly. It has high strength, heat resistance and wear resistance; Shock absorption, light and comfortable, high resilience, antibacterial, breathable, foaming power as high as 10 times. This material has become a well-deserved "star" in shoe materials!

If the ban is lifted, the "exclusive agreement" that lasted for several years and restricted the short-term application and diffusion of electronic TPU materials will become a thing of the past.

Does this mean that domestic electronic TPU material manufacturers will usher in spring? Does it mean that electronic TPU materials will have a broader application space? Then, will the entire industrial chain of electronic TPU also usher in an outbreak period?

However, it is worth noting that compared with BASF's E-TPU material, the "E-TPU material" made in China is still different according to Bian Xiao's understanding. For example, the "E-TPU" material of Ningbo Institute of Materials, Chinese Academy of Sciences adopts TPU with polyester structure, the process adopts supercritical foaming technology, and the foaming agent adopts CO2. The cell shape is relatively uniform, but the hardness is more than 85 (Shore A), and the production capacity is about 100 tons/month; Cixi Green Mobil, another electronic TPU material company, also launched the electronic TPU material during the rubber & plastic exhibition, and its popularity exceeded Bian Xiao's expectations! However, according to Bian Xiao's comparison, there are some differences between this material and BASF's material, mainly in the touch, surface luster, density, elasticity and hardness of particles.
