ESTANE® 3D TPU M95A
SOLUTION DATA SHEET
ESTANE ® 3D TPU M95A Powder for HP’s Multi Jet Fusion 4200 Series
Footwear (upper, midsoles and insoles), prostheses (flexible prosthetic liner),
Markets wearables and consumer goods (e.g., bicycle helmets and seats), transportation (e.g.,
seats, arm rests, radio buttons, exhaust parts), seals, bearings and other industrial
applications (e.g., flexible hoses, fixtures, jigs, end of arm tooling)
Polymer ESTANE® thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU)
• Excellent processing & unpacking at room temperature (PA12 like)
Key Benefits • High material reusability up to 80%
• Great rebound, abrasion resistance and energy return
Lubrizol Engineered Materials is a certified HP materials partner and has developed
ESTANE ® 3D TPU M95A for the HP Jet Fusion 4200 series 3D printing solution. This
material is a hard-flexible thermoplastic material with excellent processing and
cold unpacking features. The material delivers excellent elongation, impact
absorption and tensile strength, and shows good energy rebound, high elasticity,
low abrasion rate and good compr ession set.
Printed parts of ESTANE® 3D TPU M95A TPU powder have excellent mechanical properties
and can meet performance requirements for a wide array of functional applications across
many industries.

Other key benefits of ESTANE 3D TPU M95A:
• Skin sensitization and cytotoxicity tests PASS in accordance with ISO 10993-5 and
10993-10
• High temperature resistance up to 200ºC
• Watertight parts can be produced
• Ideal 3D printing material for prototyping and manufacturing scale-up applications.
As a result of ESTANE 3D TPU M95A’s excellent handling properties during unpacking,
less material goes to waste, less labor is needed, fewer 3D parts are damaged, and more
powder is recovered for future use. This benefit helps make ESTANE 3D TPU M95A a
more cost-effective solution versus many other elastomeric 3D printing materials,
especially when printing complex parts or lattice structures.
Additionally, to enhance our ability as a 3D printing solution provider, Lubrizol has added
design for Additive Manufacturing (DfAM) along with engineering and manufacturing
capabilities.
A new grade, ESTANE 3D TPU M88A, with a lower hardness is now available for HP’s
Multi Jet Fusion 5200 series. For more information contact us or visit our web site:
