Polyurethane is an emerging organic polymer material, known as the "fifth largest plastic", and is widely used in many fields of the national economy due to its excellent performance
.
Polyurethane elastomers can be divided into thermoplastic polyurethane elastomers (TPU), casting polyurethane elastomers (CPU) and kneading polyurethane elastomers (MPU) according to different processes, of which TPU is the largest

TPU is a polyurethane elastomer product.
The raw materials such as polyol, MDI, BDO, adipic acid, ethylene glycol and other raw materials required for its production are petroleum derivatives or by-products, which are downstream products of petrochemical industry
.
Compared with general plastic and rubber materials, TPU has a wide range of hardness, outstanding mechanical properties, excellent high/low temperature resistance, good processing performance, excellent environmental protection performance, strong plasticity, strong designability, and excellent transparency.
It has both the high elasticity of rubber materials and the high strength of engineering plastics

Influenced by the Xiangshui incident in 2019, the government accelerated the renovation of chemical parks.
At the same time, fluctuations in the price of raw material isocyanates increased the production costs of some small factories.
The combined impact prompted some small factories in China to shut down production capacity, and the domestic TPU supply pattern freed up some space

Although the production scale of domestic TPU in China is high, it lacks advantages in the subdivision field
.
The technological development direction, scale, competition pattern, growth rate, and profit level of the TPU industry directly depend on the market demand of the downstream industry
.
The data shows that as traditional rubber and plastic materials are gradually replaced by environmentally friendly materials, TPU consumption will continue to grow, and it will be widely used in many fields of the national economy
.
TPU is mainly used in pipes, films, electronic appliances, shoe materials, auto parts, modified rubber, industrial transmission, adhesives, wires and cables and other fields
.
Among them, shoe material is the main consumer market of TPU, accounting for 40% of the consumption of TPU
.

The downstream application pattern of TPU in China
Although the production scale of domestic TPU in China is high, it lacks advantages in the subdivision field
.
Especially in the mid-to-high-end market, multinational companies such as BASF and Huntsman have outstanding technological advantages.
Through efficient management models, they have improved product performance and quality while reducing product production costs, occupying a major share of domestic mid-to-high-end and high-end markets
.
At present, most TPU manufacturers in China lack the advantages of core technology, single product structure, and slow progress of new products, resulting in weak overall market competitiveness, and it is difficult to effectively improve industry profits

China is the world's largest shoe producer and exporter, and its output accounts for more than 50% of the global total
.
The technological innovation of sole materials is an important innovation point in the shoe industry
.
Compared with traditional sole materials, TPU has obvious performance advantages, and its usage is increasing day by day
.
Among them, ETPU has outstanding advantages in resilience and shock absorption, and the sole made of it can effectively absorb the impact of the foot and provide high-quality cushioning effect
.
On the whole, the TPU industry has the characteristics of high raw material cost, fast product update speed, many types of specifications and models, and obvious differentiation of customer needs
.
Therefore, the profit level of the industry is affected by various factors such as fluctuations in raw material prices, new product development capabilities, and customer service levels
.
With the successive introduction of domestic policies and measures for residents' sports health, as well as the improvement of consumer spending capacity on sports goods, the growth in consumer demand for high-tech sports shoes is conducive to improving the application space of the TPU industry.
On the other hand, in the high-end market Such as calendering grade TPU, medical TPU, high temperature TPU and other varieties, China mainly relies on imports.
With the long-term technology accumulation and R&D investment of domestic TPU enterprises, it is expected to break through the monopoly of foreign enterprises and expand the domestic alternative space
