Coated Webbing is a waterproof webbing, which is a polyester webbing coated with a plastic material. Usually, the external plastic is TPU or PVC, so what is the difference between TPU Coated Webbing and PVC Coated Webbing?

　　 1. Environmental protection of Coated Webbing
　　 As we all know, TPU is an environmentally friendly plastic material. TPU can be naturally decomposed into water and other non-toxic substances. Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) is not easily decomposed in the natural environment and must be incinerated. PVC releases toxic gases during the combustion process, pollutes the air and soil, participates in the ecological cycle, and ultimately affects human health. Therefore, the environmental performance of TPU Coated Webbing makes it suitable for the global green trend.

　　 2. Softness of Coated Webbing
　　 Generally speaking, PVC should be added with plasticizer to obtain elasticity and softness. But TPU itself is an elastic material, so no plasticizer is needed. Due to the material properties of thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) and polyvinyl chloride (PVC), PVC Coated Webbing is softer than TPU Coated Webbing.

　　 3. The difficulty of processing Coated Webbing
　　TPU is more difficult to process than many other plastic materials. Especially in the production of matt TPU coated webbing, it is not easy to avoid bright lines on the surface.

In addition, TPU has a wide range of hardness, outstanding mechanical properties, excellent high/low temperature resistance, good processing performance, excellent environmental performance, strong plasticity, strong designability, excellent transparency and other superior characteristics. Its existing rubber materials High elasticity and high strength of engineering plastics. Due to the development trend of global environmental protection, thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) will be applied in more and more fields, but PVC is still an important plastic material in the industrial field.
