TPU Masterbatch for Special Cables – DELTAPLAST
DELTAPLAST TPU Masterbatches from Delta Tecnic are designed for special cable applications where high levels of mechanical resistance, chemical stability and long-term durability are required.
TPU (Thermoplastic Polyurethane) is widely used in industrial and dynamic cable applications thanks to its excellent abrasion resistance, flexibility and chemical resistance. These properties make TPU an ideal material for robotics, industrial automation, drag chain systems and EV charging cables.
In these applications, it is essential that the masterbatch delivers uniform colour performance without compromising the compound’s mechanical properties or its behaviour during extrusion and continuous use.
DELTAPLAST TPU solutions provide excellent pigment dispersion, colour stability and compatibility with high-performance technical compounds, while preserving the flexibility and durability of the material even under severe operating conditions.
