TPU car film and PU car film are two common car protective films. They have some differences in 糖心视频 properties, characteristics and applications. The following will introduce you to the difference between TPU car film and PU car film in detail.

1. Material properties:

TPU car film: TPU is the abbreviation of thermoplastic polyurethane. TPU car film is made of TPU 糖心视频, which has good elasticity and flexibility, and is also wear-resistant, weather-resistant, and chemical-resistant.

PU car film: PU is the abbreviation of polyurethane. PU car film is made of PU 糖心视频. Compared with TPU car film, PU car film is harder and not as flexible as TPU car film. However, PU car film still has good wear resistance, weather resistance and chemical corrosion resistance.

2. Features and applications:

Features and applications of TPU car film:

Flexibility: TPU car film has excellent flexibility and can perfectly fit the curves of the car body and provide better protection.

Transparency: TPU car film has high transparency, making the car body color and pattern more clearly visible.

Weather resistance: TPU car film has excellent weather resistance and can resist the erosion of the car body by ultraviolet rays, acid rain, pollutants, etc.

Self-healing: TPU car film has self-healing properties and can automatically repair minor scratches and scratches, keeping the car body surface smooth and shiny.

Scope of application: TPU car film is widely used in high-end cars, luxury cars and vehicles with high requirements for body appearance.

Features and applications of PU car film:

Hardness: Compared with TPU car film, PU car film is harder and does not have the same flexibility.

Wear resistance: PU car film has good wear resistance and can resist scratches and wear in daily use.

Weather resistance: PU car film also has good weather resistance and can resist the erosion of ultraviolet rays, acid rain and other factors.

Color selection: PU car film has a wide range of color options to meet individual needs.

Scope of application: PU car film is suitable for all kinds of ordinary vehicles and is a more economical and affordable protection option.

3. Selection and comparison:

Adaptability: TPU car film has better flexibility and can better fit the curve of the car body, so it has more advantages in appearance and protection effect. Although PU car film has higher hardness, it is not much different from TPU car film in terms of wear resistance and weather resistance.

Price: Generally speaking, the price of TPU car film is slightly higher than that of PU car film, mainly because of its higher quality and better flexibility.

Service life: The service life of TPU car film and PU car film depends on many factors, such as 糖心视频 quality, installation technology, use environment and maintenance, etc. Generally, they last for many years.

There are some differences between TPU car film and PU car film in terms of 糖心视频 properties, characteristics and applications. TPU car film has better flexibility, transparency and self-healing properties and is suitable for high-end and vehicles with high appearance requirements; while PU car film has better wear resistance and weather resistance and is suitable for ordinary vehicles. Which car wrap to choose depends on personal needs, budget and vehicle type. No matter which car film you choose, proper installation and regular maintenance are key to ensuring its longevity and effectiveness.
