In the modern automobile industry, the protection of the windshield has attracted more and more attention from car owners. The windshield is not only an important part of the driver's vision, but also bears the function of protecting the safety of the passengers in the car. With the advancement of technology, TPU (thermoplastic polyurethane) material car windshield protective film has gradually become a popular product on the market. This article will focus on the title of "TPU material car windshield protective film" and discuss in detail the types of windshield protective films, the advantages of TPU protective films, how to choose, and installation and maintenance.
1. Background and importance of windshield protective film
The windshield is an important part of the car structure. It not only provides the driver's field of vision, but also bears the stability of the car body structure. In daily driving, the windshield is easily hit by objects such as stones, flying insects, and branches. These collisions may cause scratches and cracks on the windshield, and even affect driving safety. In order to extend the service life of the windshield, car owners are increasingly inclined to use protective films to prevent damage from these external factors.
2. Classification of protective films
The windshield protective film can be mainly divided into the following categories:
Ordinary protective film: usually made of plastic materials, mainly used to prevent direct collision of external objects on the glass, but limited in wear resistance and impact resistance.
Polyurethane protective film: including TPU (thermoplastic polyurethane) protective film and PU (polyurethane) protective film. TPU material is increasingly favored by car owners due to its excellent physical properties and anti-aging ability.
Glass film: This type of film is usually made of materials such as glass fiber, providing higher hardness and scratch resistance, but the installation process is relatively complicated and has a certain impact on the appearance of the vehicle.
3. Advantages of TPU material windshield protective film
TPU (thermoplastic polyurethane) material is becoming more and more popular in windshield protective film due to its excellent performance. TPU material windshield protective film has the following advantages:
Excellent wear resistance: TPU material windshield protective film has extremely strong wear resistance, which can effectively prevent stones, sand and other scratches on the glass surface.
Strong impact resistance: TPU protective film has high toughness and impact resistance. Even under strong impact, it can effectively absorb impact force and protect the front windshield from damage.
High transparency: The protective film of TPU material has high transparency, will not affect the driver's line of sight, and maintain the clarity and visual effect of the front windshield.
Self-repairing function: TPU protective film has self-repairing function. Small scratches and wear on the surface can be restored to their original state by heating or naturally, keeping the film surface smooth and flat.
Anti-ultraviolet: TPU protective film can effectively resist the erosion of ultraviolet rays, reduce the speed of aging and fading of the front windshield, and extend the service life of the front windshield.
Easy to clean and maintain: The surface of TPU protective film is smooth, dirt and water stains are not easy to adhere, and it is more convenient to clean. Even if used for a long time, it is not easy to discolor or yellow.
4. Choice of TPU front windshield protective film
When choosing a front windshield protective film made of TPU material, car owners need to consider the following aspects:
Thickness of the film: The thickness of the protective film directly affects its protective performance. Generally speaking, thicker films provide better protection, but they also increase costs. Common TPU protective films are between 100 microns and 300 microns thick.
Transparency of the film: Choosing a protective film with high transparency can ensure the visual effect of the front windshield and will not affect the driver's line of sight. The transparency of high-quality TPU protective films is usually more than 90%.
Self-repairing function of the film: High-quality TPU protective films have good self-repairing functions and can effectively deal with minor scratches on the surface. You can refer to the product description when purchasing to understand the self-repairing performance of the film.
Brand and after-sales service: Choosing a protective film from a well-known brand can guarantee its quality and performance. At the same time, understanding the after-sales service policy, such as installation and maintenance support, can also provide more protection for car owners.
