Keeping this in view, is TPU material hard or soft?

TPU material is a group of thermoplastic elastomers with good elasticity and resistance to stresses like abrasion and oil lubricants. Its structure consists of soft and hard segments linked together in the chain.

Similarly, is TPU the same as silicone? A thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) phone case is less durable when compared to a silicone phone case. The silicone phone cases are more durable when compared to a thermoplastic polyurethane phone case. They are fire-resistant as well. The elastic properties of the phone case contribute a lot towards durability.

Consequently, are Soft TPU cases good?

These one-piece cases are typically made of TPU, which is durable and slightly malleable, so they're easy to fit and offers some shock protection. Hard, slim cases can be tough to fit on your device and they won't provide much protection from drop damage.

Is TPU material safe?

Any substance and material can be potentially or inherently toxic or safe depending on several factors. In general, TPU is not toxic; is safe in many applications. It is even used in biomedical applications. Burning of TPU produces toxic fumes including many harmful substances like cyanide compounds.
