How to distinguish PEEK from TPU

TPU, also known as thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer rubber, is an elastomer that is plasticized by heating and dissolved by solvents. It has excellent wear resistance, excellent ozone resistance, high hardness, high strength, good elasticity, low temperature resistance, oil resistance, chemical resistance, and environmental resistance. It is widely used in the fields of footwear, cables, clothing, automobiles, medicine and health, pipes, films, sheets, etc. However, PEEK is different from TPU. PEEK is a special engineering plastic called polyetheretherketone. PEEK has a series of excellent comprehensive properties such as high temperature resistance, wear resistance, corrosion resistance, and high strength. It has been successfully and widely used in aerospace, automotive, electronic semiconductor, electromechanical and other industries with high requirements. TPU is an elastomer…
