TPU belongs to a class of thermoplastic elastomers that are long-chain linear polymers, which allow the polyurethane to be melted to form parts and then the parts are solidified. The usage of TPU in medical applications is consistently increasing, owing to its high-performance characteristics, resistance to chemicals and oils, improved mechanical properties, and enhanced durability. Melt-processable polyurethanes are used to make catheters, such as central-venous access catheters, over-the-needle IV catheters and multi-lumen catheters. They are also used in wound dressing, owing to their versatile nature. TPU wound-dressing films are used to cover the wound and restrict the entry of bacteria and fluids, but allow moisture to permeate. 



Scope of the Report:

This report focuses on the Thermoplastic Polyurethane in global market, especially in North America, Europe and Asia-Pacific, South America, Middle East and Africa. This report categorizes the market based on manufacturers, regions, type and application.

Thermoplastic polyurethane market is expected to grow at a rapid phase owing to rising demand from various regions and it vast application in various end-use industries. Thermoplastic Polyurethane has good properties such as elasticity, transparency, and resistance to oil, grease, and abrasion due to this the application of Thermoplastic polyurethane has been expanding.  Globally, the thermoplastic polyurethane market is expected to witness significant growth owing to rising demand from the automotive sector.
