TPU covered yarn high-strength monofilament yarn is a new type of fiber material processed by coating the surface of high-strength monofilament yarn with thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU). The TPU layer not only protects the internal fibers, but also provides flexibility, waterproofness and wear resistance, thereby improving the overall application performance. This yarn is widely used in industries, footwear manufacturing, outdoor equipment and other fields.

TPU material has excellent elasticity and chemical resistance, coupled with the high strength and tensile resistance of monofilament yarn, giving this product a unique competitive advantage. For example, some research data show that the tensile strength of TPU coated monofilament yarn can exceed 500 Newtons, and the wear resistance is improved by more than 20%. This fact not only shows the technological content of the material, but also proves its wide application in engineering and fashion.

The key advantages of using TPU coating technology are as follows:

• Strong protection: TPU layer can effectively resist chemical corrosion and physical wear.
• Good flexibility: TPU itself has good flexibility, making the yarn easier to process.
• High water resistance: waterproof and moisture-proof to a great extent.
• Environmental performance: Compared with traditional coating materials, its manufacturing process is more in line with environmental protection requirements.

During the manufacturing process, Monofee uses advanced equipment and strict quality inspection to refine and standardize TPU coated high-strength monofilament yarn to ensure consistency and high performance of each batch of products. This rigorous quality control method not only reflects the professionalism of the company, but also provides customers with reliable product guarantees.

How to apply it on the upper and its advantages

TPU coated high-strength monofilament yarn has unique advantages in upper design, and more and more designers and sports brands are applying it to footwear materials. Using this yarn to make uppers can not only meet the innovative needs of appearance design, but also improve the wear resistance, support and waterproof effect of the whole shoe.

Application advantages:

• Enhanced wear resistance: The upper is often subjected to friction and scratches in outdoor environments. The TPU coating can effectively reduce wear and tear and increase the life of the upper.
• Improved safety: Monofilament yarn with high tensile strength can maintain its shape after multiple pulls, reducing safety hazards caused by structural damage.
• Lightweight and flexible: The flexibility and elasticity of TPU make the upper not only light, but also well adapted to foot movement and provide additional support.
• Fashion innovation: The texture and gloss of the yarn can add a sense of fashion to footwear products, allowing designers to explore more creative design forms.

Specifically, the application process of TPU coated monofilament yarn on the upper usually includes the following steps:

• Material selection and pretreatment: First, the high-strength monofilament yarn is strictly tested to ensure that the basic strength meets the standard.
• TPU coating process: TPU is evenly coated on the monofilament yarn at high temperature, and then cooled and shaped.
• Post-processing: After the yarn is processed by stretching, curing and other processes, it is used for upper weaving or direct sewing.
• Quality inspection: Each batch of products will undergo multiple tests such as stretching, wear resistance, and water resistance to ensure that it meets the expected standards.

Multiple test data show that the overall service life of the upper material after the TPU coating process can be extended by 30% to 50%, greatly reducing the maintenance costs caused by material problems. In addition, some international brands have successfully applied this material in their sports shoes and outdoor shoes, and have won wide acclaim from the market and users.

Production process and quality management skills

The production of high-quality TPU covered high-strength monofilament yarn depends on advanced equipment and scientific process management. Monofee has decades of professional experience in this field. The production line they use is equipped with high-precision temperature control equipment and automatic control systems to ensure that each step of the process is in the best condition.

Introduction to production process:

• Raw material selection: High-strength monofilament yarn usually chooses durable polyester fiber or nylon fiber, and TPU uses environmentally friendly raw materials to ensure the overall environmental performance of the product.
• Coating process: Using extrusion molding technology, the molten TPU is evenly coated on the surface of the yarn. The temperature of the whole process is controlled between about 180℃-220℃ to ensure that the TPU is quickly fixed in a short time.
• Cooling and curing: After coating, the product will enter the cooling tank, and rapid curing ensures that the TPU layer and the monofilament yarn are tightly bonded.
• Quality inspection: Comprehensive inspection of various indicators including tensile strength, wear resistance, water resistance, etc. Some inspection items meet national or international standards, such as ISO certification, etc.

Quality management skills:

• Full data monitoring: Real-time monitoring of key parameters such as temperature and pressure to ensure a stable production process.
• Automated testing equipment: Use online testing instruments to test each batch of yarn to ensure that each product meets the standards.
• Employee professional training: Regular technical training for employees to improve their operating level and equipment maintenance capabilities.
• Feedback improvement mechanism: Establish a complete customer feedback system and adjust processes and procedures in a timely manner based on feedback.

Through this rigorous production management system, the product failure rate remains at an extremely low level. According to internal data, the failure rate of TPU-coated monofilament yarn is less than 0.5%. This quality assurance not only gives the product a competitive advantage in the market, but also provides customers with stable and reliable performance support.
