DESCRIPTION
Polyurethane modified silicone
microsphere TP515U can be added
into paint and inks to provide a
smooth, soft and suede touch with
good wear and scratch resistance
properties.
For water-based system, we offer
pre-dispersed product TP515U-40
which is much easier to use.
With the same diameter – 15.0μm
and all modified by PU, TP515U is
harder than TP315U but more
slippery.
FEATURES
• Provide a special soft and suede touch.
• Improve abrasion and scratch resistance.
• Anti-aging.
• Less moisture absorption.
• Less yellowing Vs pure PU powder
• Less swelling Vs pure PU powder
• Much more thermal stability than pure PU powder
ADVANTAGES
• High silicone content, offering better heat
resistance and anti-aging property.
• Polyurethane modified surface significantly
improves the compatibility with other resins.
COMPOSITION
• Polyurethane modified silicone elastomer
PACKAGE
Typical packaging is 10kg carton, lined with a
plastic bag. Samples are packaged in 100g plastic
bag.
HANDLING PRECAUTIONS
• Wear eye protection, protective gloves and mask
always when working with this product.

area.
STORAGE
When stored below 35°C (122°F), TP515U series
products has a shelf life of 12 months from
manufacture.
Storage beyond the date specified on the label does
not necessarily mean that the product is no longer
usable. In this case however, the properties required
for the intended use must be checked for quality
assurance reasons.
APPLICATION
• Added into paints and inks to provide a smooth, soft and suede touch.
• Added into TPU, TPE and TPV to offer a smooth suede touch.
HOW TO USE
• Dosage: depending on different
requirements for touch, surface
gloss, etc., the dosage of TP515U in
paints and inks is 1.0 – 10.0%.
• Dispersion disc can facilitate the
dispersion of TP515U in the
formulation, but ultrasonic
dispersion is much more effective.
