Introduction of environmentally friendly TPE in artificial turf applications and advantages
2019/4/10
The environmentally friendly TPE is a filling material for artificial turf. TPE elastic granules not only provide a softer surface that absorbs vibration, but also make athletes less prone to injury, and they also have better sports characteristics, comparable to the top natural turf. TPE particles have no volatile odor and truly zero odor, in line with the development of today's healthy sports.
There are three main reasons why TPE granulesneed to be added into football field of artificial turf:
1. Since the turf is made of polymer wire drawing, it is necessary to use quartz sand or TPE particles to press the grass and stabilize the turf. Generally, the lower layer uses quartz sand and the upper layer uses TPE rubber particles;
2. The artificial turf of the football field does not have soil, so that when the person collides or falls, the body is stressed and easily injured. The high elasticity of TPE rubber can effectively simulate the feeling of the soil and prevent some injuries caused by collision with the site.
3.The polymer brushed surface is much smoother than the real turf, especially when it is raining, then adding rubber particles can provide greater friction and improve the performance of the turf.
In compliance with customer requirements and market demand, TPE provides customers with different properties and types of high-quality thermoplastic elastomers in the form of “tailor-made”. The characteristics are as follows:
1. The product is environmentally friendly, non-toxic, easy to match color, non-toxic and non-radiative;
2. It has good elasticity, impact resistance, soft anti-slip, and good retraction retention;
3. The product incoming material are strict, full of particles and free of dust;
4. It will not cause any harm to the human body and the environment, in line with EU Rohs and other environmental regulations.
