Covestro Texin® STX Thermoplastic Polyurethanes (TPU)
Categories: Polymer; Thermoplastic; Polyurethane, TP

Material Notes: Characterization: Texin STX resin is an opaque, high performance thermoplastic polyurethane which possesses the stiffness and modulus of standard engineering thermoplastics.

Properties / Applications: Texin STX resin exhibits excellent heat and chemical resistance. Other key attributes of Texin STX TPU include good impact resistance, low moisture absorption, low mold shrinkage, a low coefficient of thermal expansion, and good heat and abrasion resistance. It can be processed by injection molding or extrusion. Typical applications include couplings, valves, fittings, sunglass frames, and housings for personal electronic devices. As with any product, use of Texin STX resin in a given application must be tested (including field testing, etc.) in advance by the user to determine suitability.
