Laripur 5925

Polyester TPU at Shore 59 D with 9800 psi tensile strength. Injection moulded technical items and footwear components.

Home Products COIM Laripur 5925

Laripur 5925 is a polyester based TPU at Shore 59 D. COIM lists it for the injection moulding of technical items and footwear components.

It sits between 5725 and 6325 in the hard polyester run. Tensile strength is 9800 psi, tear strength 171 N/mm and the flexural modulus is 34000 N per square mm, with elongation at break at 390 percent.

The VICAT softening point is 295 degrees F and abrasion loss is 40 cubic mm by DIN 53516.

Applications

Technical injection moulded parts

COIM's first listed use.

Footwear components

Named on the data sheet.

Structural parts

Where a flexural modulus of 34000 N per square mm is the property being specified.

Handling and dispersion

Dry before processing at 175 to 195 degrees F for 3 hours, preferably in a dehumidifying drier fed by air with a dew point below minus 22 degrees F. Skipping the drying step is the most common cause of splay and bubbles in a TPU part.

COIM's suggested moulding profile runs zone 1 at 385 degrees F, zone 2 at 395, zone 3 at 410 and the nozzle at 395. Machine, screw and downstream equipment all move these, so treat them as a starting point.

Packaging, storage, and regulatory status

Package sizes: 25 kg bags, or 500 kg and 1000 kg octabins.

Storage: Six months from the date of delivery, in the original sealed packaging, in a dry well ventilated place out of direct sun.

COIM does not consider the product dangerous. Read the safety data sheet before handling.

Frequently asked questions

Is Laripur 5925 polyester or polyether?

Polyester. COIM's data sheet describes it as a polyester based TPU.

How does it compare with 5725 and 6325?

It sits between them. 5725 is Shore 56 D at a flexural modulus of 27000 N per square mm; 5925 is 59 D at 34000; 6325 is 62 D at 53000. Tear strength climbs the same way, 163 to 171 to 193 N/mm.

What is the polyether alternative?

Laripur 5760 at Shore 56 D or Laripur 6560 at Shore 65 D, both PTMG polyethers COIM credits with very good resistance to hydrolysis and microbial attack. There is no polyether at exactly 59 D on COIM's published range.

Do I have to dry it?

Yes. Three hours at 175 to 195 degrees F in a dehumidifying drier with the air dew point below minus 22 degrees F, the same as every Laripur grade.

Can I get the TDS and SDS for Laripur 5925?

Yes. We send the Technical Data Sheet (TDS) and Safety Data Sheet (SDS) on request, in the manufacturer's current revision. Use Request TDS or SDS above and tell us what your qualification review needs.
