Aliphatic TPU for paint protection film: optical clarity and self-healing

PCL-based aliphatic TPU particles for optically clear protective film — self-healing, UV and weather resistant, plasticizer-free and compatible with adhesives, inks and coatings.

What PPF demands of the TPU

Paint protection film is the optical surface between a car's paint and the road. The TPU layer has to be crystal-clear and stay clear, absorb stone impact, resist UV and weathering over years outdoors, and self-heal surface marks.

Product advantages

  • High process stability — consistent melt behaviour makes extrusion easier to control.
  • Crystal-clear — nearly invisible on the surface it protects.
  • Impact and abrasion protection — shields the surface from chips and wear.
  • Adhesive, ink and coating compatibility — bonds well with downstream layers.
  • Self-healing — surface marks recover to keep the film looking new.
  • Weather and UV resistance — holds up under long outdoor exposure.
  • Low-temperature flexibility — easier installation across a wider temperature range.
  • Plasticizer-free — no plasticizer to leach and embrittle over time.

Grade highlights

The NL2188 / NL2165D series is designed specifically for paint protection film and important surface-protection film, with the stability needed for efficient extrusion. After market validation, the product meets the technical standard of international high-end grades and supports domestic substitution.

Applications

  • Paint protection film (PPF)
  • Automotive interior
  • Graphic media and laminates
  • Signage and labels
  • Consumer goods
  • Flooring and construction
