Abstract: Elastic yarns made from thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) are a promising, sustainable alternative to conventional elastane. They allow for solvent-free production, are potentially recyclable, and can be manufactured using bio-based raw materials. As a result, TPU offers great potential for a more environmentally friendly and economically advantageous textile production in the future. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
