SHENZHEN, China —— Shenzhen Tunsing Plastic Products Co., Ltd., a leading global manufacturer of premium hot melt adhesive films, has officially released the latest Technical Data Sheet (TDS Version V1.4) for its flagship product, the DS8400 Polyurethane (TPU) Hot Melt Adhesive Film. This update not only refines core physical parameters but also discloses comprehensive laboratory thermal analysis and rheological curves for the first time, aiming to provide transparent, predictable, and high-performance bonding solutions for premium Western apparel, outdoor gear, and automotive interior manufacturers.
As Western markets demand higher manufacturing precision and material durability, DS8400 is becoming a critical component in multinational supply chains due to its exceptional physical properties and strict quality control.
Western industries demand rigorous physical performance boundaries. The DS8400 was engineered from the ground up with multi-substrate compatibility and environmental endurance as its core development vectors:
Multi-Substrate Versatility: Optimised at the molecular level for diverse substrates including textiles, Thermoplastic Polyurethane (TPU), Polycarbonate (PC), and Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC), ensuring high peel strength across composite material processing.
Premium Ergonomics & Resilience: The laminated end-products retain an exceptional soft hand feel and robust structural resilience, perfectly aligning with strict Western standards for visual and tactile quality in high-end apparel, footwear, and luxury luggage.
Extreme Cold Resistance: Maintains molecular chain flexibility even at extremely low temperatures, preventing adhesive layer embrittlement, making it an ideal choice for extreme sports gear such as skiwear and mountaineering backpacks.
Western engineers rely heavily on standardized data for material selection. All physical indicators of DS8400 are determined via standardized laboratory testing, ensuring high traceability:

To meet the expectations of Western OEM/ODM clients regarding supply chain technical transparency, Tunsing Plastic has fully integrated precise rheological and thermal characterization into Version V1.4:
DSC Thermal Flow Analysis: Tested using a German NETZSCH DSC 214 analyzer under a protective nitrogen atmosphere at a heating rate of 10°C/min. Results show that the actual glass transition point (Tg) precisely manifests near -31.1°C, and the endothermic melting peak (Tm) is located at 96.5°C, providing an extremely accurate physical reference for temperature control during processing.
Rheological Behavior: Evaluated via an Austrian Anton Paar rotational rheometer in a dynamic parallel plate mode at a heating rate of 2.5°C/min. The testing precisely measures the transition point from a viscoelastic solid to a fluid (flow transition temperature) at approximately 98.1°C. This data quantifies the flow behavior of the film in its molten state, helping clients precisely calibrate mold pressing parameters to minimize the risk of adhesive squeeze-out or insufficient bonding.
To ensure the most efficient production cycles within Western industrial assembly lines, Tunsing Laboratory suggests the following dual-stage lamination process windows:
First Lamination: Temperature: 120-150°C | Time: 5-15 seconds | Pressure: 0.3-0.6 MPa
Second Lamination: Temperature: 130-160°C | Time: 8-25 seconds | Pressure: 0.3-0.6 MPa
Technical Note: Because heating and pressing equipment (such as heat presses and rotary laminators) and substrates vary across Western manufacturing plants, the final bonding strength is deeply related to the temperature and pressure uniformity at the actual contact surface. Tunsing Plastic strongly recommends that global clients conduct small-batch trial testing for specific applications prior to full-scale mass production.
