Polyurethane is a tough, inexpensive, highly adaptable alternative
to rubber, plastic, woods and very often metal, for use in
a huge variety of applications, where a long life and specific
performance parameters are to be met.
This highly adaptable, chemical resistant material can be
utilised in products where it may be as light, bouyant and
soft as butter in the form of low density foams, or as dense
and tough as nylon in the form of rigid foam - or indeed,
with properties ranging anywhere between the two. All forms
may be "sandwiched", or the softer forms encapsulated
within the more rigid, to provide light, durable solutions
to almost any client brief.
Its uses range from plasterers' floats and hawks; brickies'
hods; painters' mixing heads and heavy duty knee pads, through
to motor cycle seats and car interiors; aircraft wing tips
and yacht hulls, roof and cavity wall insulation; refridgeration
unit insulation and castor wheels.
The thermal, acoustic, chemical and electrical insulating
properties of polyurethane can be utilised in all manner of
applications to guard against high temperature; dampen sound
and vibration; prevent the ingress or loss of liquids and
insulate against electrical discharge. |
