Kimya TPU-R Filament

Flexible, recycled filament from Kimya

The Kimya TPU-R 3D filament belongs to the polyurethane family. Thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) is an elastomer made from recycled materials. It combines elastic and mechanical properties. This combination gives the filament properties such as elasticity, transparency and resistance to oil, grease and abrasion. The TPU-R 3D printing material has a shore hardness of 92A. It enables the printing of strong and flexible parts. It is used in the electronics, automotive, consumer goods and sporting goods industries.

Advantages of Kimya TPU-R Filament

• The flexible filament from the French manufacturer Kimya offers good chemical resistance and abrasion resistance in addition to the soft, flexible properties. This means that functional components can also be manufactured with the material.
• Kimya TPU-R is made from industrial waste (post-industrial recycling). As a result, this filament contributes to the circular economy and promotes the sustainability of plastics.

Applications of Kimya TPU-R Filament

Kimya TPU-R is widely used by industrial users who need a flexible material while reducing their environmental footprint. The material is suitable for Grips, insulation, press fittings and shock absorbers. Private users also use the material, for example for seals and springs.
