Chemical characteristics of PU and TPE
General
Thermoplastic material can be used in a variety of applications where there is interaction with various chemicals. Chemical resistance depends on the period of exposure, the temperature, the quantity, the concentration and the type of the chemical substance. It is therefore difffcult in any case to make a clear distinction between the effects described below. In the case of chemical degradation of polyurethane the chemical reaction results in cleavage of the molecular chains. In the course of degradation, polyurethane loses strength, and in extreme cases this can lead to disintegration of the part.
For critical applications, a detailed resistance test considering both swelling and the affect on mechanical properties is recommended.
Swelling
Swelling is the fundamental physical process of the absorption of liquid substances by a solid. In this process, the substance enters into the material without chemical interaction. This results in an increase in volume and weight with a corresponding reduction in mechanical values. After evaporation a reduction in swelling occurs and the original properties of the product are almost completely restored.
Swelling is a reversible process. By using reinforcements in the polyurethane, for example polyester or aramid cords, you can almost avoid this mechanical impact on the material.
Hydrolysis
resistance If polyester-based polyurethanes are exposed for lengthy periods to hot water, moisture vapour or tropical climates, an irreversible break-down of the polyester chains occurs through hydrolysis. This results in a reduction in mechanical properties. This effect is more marked in ffexible grades, where the polyester content is correspondingly higher than in the harder formulations. Degradation of polyester-based polyurethanes is however rarely experienced at room temperature. Because of its chemical structure, polyester-based polyurethanes are much more resistant to hydrolytic degradation.
Microbiological
resistance When using polyester-based thermoplastic polyurethane under climatic conditions of high heat and humidity, parts can be damaged by microbiological attack. In particular, microorganisms producing enzymes are able to affect the molecule chains of polyester-based TPU. The microbiological attack initially becomes visible as discoloration. Subsequently, surface cracks occur which enable the microbes to penetrate deeper and to cause a complete destruction of the TPU.
