Aliphatic vs Aromatic TPU — Decision Helper

The aliphatic premium earns out against failure cost, not against the cheaper grade beside it on the shelf. Four questions decide whether your part needs it.

1. Is the part light-coloured, white, or optically clear where a yellow cast would show?
2. Does the part see sustained outdoor or ultraviolet exposure in service?
3. What does one field colour failure cost you?
4. Is the service also hot and humid (wash-down, tropical, autoclave)?
This helper reflects the material logic, not a sales script — it will tell you to buy the cheaper aromatic grade when that is the right call. Whichever way it points, apply the four gates to any supplier before you commit.
