Elastollan TPU 1100 Series Film & Sheet

Elastollan offers a wide range of products and superior properties for film, sheet and fabric-coating applications. These characteristics include excellent transparency, outstanding abrasion/puncture resistance and tensile strength, and good low-temperature flexibility. In addition, specific Elastollan properties can be enhanced by BASF’s expertise in polyurethane chemistry:
  • Aliphatic grades are available.
  • Special Elastollan grades can be formulated for high Moisture Vapor Transmission Rate (MVTR), good UV resistance and the ability to achieve FDA and NSF certifications.
  • Polyether-based grades of Elastollan offer good microbial resistance, enhanced resistance to weak acids/bases and excellent hydrolytic stability.
  • Polyester-based grades of Elastollan provide good oil/solvent resistance and high-temperature performance.  
Wound Dressings
In addition to the characteristics mentioned above, Elastollan also provides wound dressings with hydrolytic stability, FDA and USP Class VI certification, and washability.


Wheelchair Cushions
Imparting washability, microbial resistance and hydrolytic stability, Elastollan is an important part of the manufacture of wheelchair cushions.

Softball Covers
Elastollan is a big hit with makers of softball covers, who prefer the BASF TPU for its tear/cut/abrasion resistance, high puncture resistance, long-term flexibility, low-temperature flexibility, hydrolytic stability, resistance to weathering and color stability.



Ski Laminates
Tear/cut/abrasion resistance, high puncture resistance, long-term flexibility, low-temperature flexibility, hydrolytic stability, resistance to weathering and color stability are just some of the Elastollan characteristics that aid the production of ski laminates.


Collapsible Fuel Tanks
When used in the manufacture of collapsible fuel tanks, Elastollan can impart abrasion/tear/cut resistance, high burst pressure, good adhesion to fabric, barrier properties, low-temperature flexibility, hydrolytic stability, fuel resistance, resistance to weathering and color stability.

Breathable Sport Fabrics
For breathable sport fabrics, Elastollan has you covered with traits such as cut/tear/abrasion resistance, high puncture resistance, low-temperature/long-term flexibility, hydrolytic stability, resistance to weathering and color stability.

Bike Seat Covers
Elastollan can help smooth the road to producing superior bike seat covers with characteristics including tear/cut/abrasion resistance, high puncture resistance, long-term flexibility, low-temperature flexibility, hydrolytic stability, resistance to weathering and color stability



Automotive Foam-In-Place Seats
Manufacturers are comfortable using Elastollan for automotive foam-in-place seats because of the TPU’s significant tear/cut/abrasion resistance, adhesion to fabric, barrier properties, low-temperature flexibility, hydrolytic stability, resistance to weathering and color stability

    Bedsheets (Moisture Barriers)
    Elastollan offers products with excellent hydrolytic stability and microbial resistance for use in manufacturing bedsheets.
