Aliphatic TPU: medical-grade resins

Aliphatic TPUs with polyether or polycarbonate soft segments, including hydrophilic types. Aliphatic chemistry resists yellowing from light and radiation.

27 grades from 1 manufacturer. Families included: TPU (aliphatic polycarbonate), TPU (aliphatic polyether), TPU (hydrophilic aliphatic).

Data comes from public supplier literature (cited on each grade page). A blank cell means not stated in the source, not "no". Always confirm with the supplier's current documentation before use.

Reference only: Compiled from public manufacturer literature for reference only; it may be incomplete or outdated. Before using any grade in a device, verify the current manufacturer data sheet and complete your own testing and regulatory review.
