Mirathane® Bio-TPU|The “key to the future” for green environmental protection


In recent years, the crude oil resource is limited and the price is increasing. The supply of crude oil meets a big pressure. Bioenergy industry, bio-manufacturing industry turn into the developed hotspot all over the word, the economy and environmental-friendly property become the continuous internal motivation for its development. Bio-Based material is environmental-friendly, resource saving, and it is becoming the new leading industry of technology innovation and economic development.

Bio-based material refers to the production of raw materials all or part (generally more than 25%) from biological, especially plant resources, with the help of biological or chemical means of polymer materials.  Biobased materials are essentially derived from CO2 in the atmosphere and are effective in reducing CO2 emissions over their life cycle (compared to fossil-based materials).  Bio-based materials solve the problem of the source of raw materials.  Mirathane® bio-based TPU is derived from the synthesis of biomass raw materials. It uses renewable materials to replace the components containing active hydrogen compounds in traditional petroleum-based polyurethanes. It is environmental-friendly and has a bio-based content of up to 25~70%.  Mirathane® G series is a bio-based TPU product that has similar properties and advantages to traditional petroleum-based TPU. Mirathane® G series is suitable for industrial applications, sports and leisure, and electronic products. The products have been approved by USDA BioPreferred®.
