Product Description
PEARLBOND® 125/H is polyester - based thermoplastic polyurethane, supplied in form of colourless or slightly yellowish, translucid pellets, combining hardness with excellent lowtemperature flexibility and a low softening point. PEARLBOND® 125/H is mainly used for making heat-sealable fabrics (Thermobonding), obtained by coating processes such as scattering or dot-coating (powder or paste).
