Urethane raw materials make wearable devices more comfortable
, smart, slim, flexible and low-profile small electronic devices, shaped like patches that can be applied to the skin, to provide users with auxiliary functions during sports leisure or medical environments, this wearable device has huge market potential
.
Covestro's environmentally friendly integrated material solutions make these devices more comfortable to wear and versatile, while also expanding the range of
wearable devices.
The device housing is made of a thermoplastic polyurethane film, which is often used
in combination with thermoplastic polyurethane foam.
This layer of material not only needs to protect the electronics, but also ensure wearing comfort, and must be as slim as possible to prevent the build-up
of adhesion.
Covestro products use thermoplastic processes that allow sensors to be easily embedded in
devices without the use of wet chemical processes.
Gerd Büschel, a film material from Covestro, said: "Users expect wearables that can be gently attached to the skin, breathable and resistant to allergies
.
We skillfully combine different materials to meet this requirement
.
The device is applied to the wearer by using a breathable, skin-friendly, waterproof and solvent-free adhesive
.
To this end, Covestro offers customized polyurethane (PU) raw materials
