Applications of TPU Materials in the New Energy Field

As global attention to sustainable development and carbon neutrality goals increases, new energy has become the core driving force for global energy transformation. The application fields of new energy, such as photovoltaic power generation, wind power generation, and new energy vehicles, have rapidly risen, posing new technical and performance demands on related supporting industries. The wire and cable industry is facing an important revolution and opportunity.


Market Demand Driven by New Energy


The development of the new energy industry has put forward higher requirements for the demand for wires and cables:


Photovoltaic Industry


Photovoltaic power generation systems require efficient and durable fiber optic cables to ensure smooth transmission of electric energy from solar panels to inverters and the grid. These cables need to have high temperature resistance, ultraviolet resistance, and flame retardant properties to adapt to long-term outdoor environments.


Wind Power Generation


Wind farms are usually located in harsh environments, such as offshore or mountainous areas. Wind power cables need to have salt spray resistance, anti-twist, and corrosion resistance to ensure the safe operation of wind power equipment.


New Energy Vehicle Industry


The battery systems, electric motors, and charging piles of new energy vehicles require a large number of high-performance cables. These cables need to meet the characteristics of high flexibility, high temperature resistance, and high voltage to ensure the stability and safety of energy transmission.


To achieve excellent performance, these cables inevitably rely on TPU materials.


Characteristics of TPU for Optical Fiber Cable


Excellent Hydrolysis Resistance and Chemical Stability


TPU for Optical Fiber Cable has excellent resistance to microorganisms, water, moisture, oil, grease, and high-energy radiation, ensuring prolonged service life of fiber optic cables.


High Reliability Performance and Outstanding Flame Retardancy
