Lubrizol GP 92AB NAT 023/25 TPU Elastomer – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the primary function of Lubrizol GP 92AB NAT 023/25 in TPU formulations?

A: Lubrizol GP 92AB NAT 023/25 is a high-performance processing aid and surface modifier designed to improve melt flow, reduce extrusion torque, and enhance surface gloss and slip in thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) compounds—without compromising mechanical integrity or thermal stability.


Q2: Is this additive compatible with all TPU chemistries (e.g., polyester- vs. polyether-based)?

A: Yes, GP 92AB NAT 023/25 demonstrates broad compatibility across common TPU base resins, including both polyester- and polyether-type TPUs. Compatibility should still be verified under actual processing conditions due to variations in molecular weight, hardness grade, and formulation complexity.


Q3: How is GP 92AB NAT 023/25 typically incorporated into TPU production?

A: It is commonly introduced via dry blending with TPU pellets prior to extrusion or injection molding. It may also be added directly into the extruder feed throat or via side-stuffer for continuous processes. Pre-blending ensures uniform dispersion and optimal performance at typical dosage levels.


Q4: Does this additive affect the regulatory status of finished TPU articles?

A: GP 92AB NAT 023/25 is not intended for direct food-contact or medical applications unless specifically validated by the end-user under applicable regulatory frameworks. Formulators are responsible for confirming final article compliance based on their specific use case, processing conditions, and regional requirements.
