List of Polyester Base High Performance Polyurethane Casting Systems

Solid/Non-Foam Casting Resins

 

Polyester base (or simply "ester base") high-performance polyurethanes are known for high tensile strength, excellent abrasion resistance as well as cut/tear resistance. Parts molded with these types of materials are used in a variety of applications including liners in material handling, grain elevator buckets, wheels, pulleys, sprockets, and other mechanically demanding applications. These are also known for excellent oil resistance; however, for long-term use in constant aqueous environments, we recommend considering one of our polyether polyurethane systems.

 

Ester "Quasi" Systems
 

These are systems consist of a MDI/Ester prepolymer at higher %NCO (15 - 26 %) cured with our special curatives. "Quasi" systems are known for low viscosity and relatively lower processing temperature.

Ester "Full-Prepolymer" Systems

 

These are conventional prepolymer systems consists of MDI/Ester prepolymers at lower %NCO (less than 15 %), can be cured with 1,4-Butanediol, other standard amine/polyol urethane curatives, or our special curing agents. These are commonly called "hot-cast" urethane systems.
