The function and production process of TPU air cushion shoe sole
Dec 31 , 2021
Air-cushioned shoes refer to an air storage cavity between the upper part of the sole and the lower part of the sole. The air storage cavity and the air inlet and outlet channels ventilate each other. The air inlet pores is vertically set at the rear end of the shoe. The air outlet pores are horizontally set on the upper part of the shoe sole. The main difference between air cushion shoes and ordi...

What can polyester polyol influence on physical properties of TPU
Mar 04 , 2022
Polyurethane is a general term for macromolecular compounds containing repeating carbamate groups (-NHCOO-) on the main chain. It is a polymer made from many kind of raw materials. By changing the type of polyurethane resin raw materials and the composition of the formula, the polyurethane resin properties can be greatly changed. The upstream raw materials of polyurethane include isoflurane (such ...
