Description

Kimya TPU-R is a 3D printing filament made from recycled thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU), part of the polyurethane family. This translucent material offers excellent elasticity and flexibility, along with a Shore hardness of 90A. Despite being formulated from recycled materials, TPU-R maintains strong mechanical properties, making it ideal for printing durable, flexible parts. It is commonly used in sectors such as electronics, automotive, and consumer goods where both resilience and sustainability matter.

Benefits

• Excellent Flexible Properties.

• Sustainable Recycled Grade.

• Great Mechanical Properties.
