Issue 16/2018 - Polyurethanes offer multi-sector, customized solutions

Polyurethane provides multi-field, customized solutions At the 16th China International Polyurethane Exhibition held recently, LANXESS presented a variety of polyurethane application solutions

.

LANXESS' two low-free polyurethane prepolymers, Adiprene and Vibrathane, have excellent wear resistance, tear resistance and high resilience, and are easy to process, suitable for mining, beneficiation, tailings treatment and other working conditions, and are widely used in equipment sealing, screens, cleaners, pipeline linings, cyclones, etc
.
These two polyurethane prepolymers are also used in the wheels
of modern high-speed roller coasters.
The use of this material makes the wheel have lower internal heat generation and better fatigue resistance in operation, avoiding stress cracking under excessive internal temperature and heavy load, so that the wheel can withstand higher load and higher speed
.

Low-free polyurethane products from LANXESS are used in the manufacture of ATM rollers
.
With its heat-resistant and antistatic properties, the product ensures that the rollers have an error-free service life
for depositing and accessing 8 million banknotes.
LANXESS polyurethane systems also protect and secure
submarine cables for offshore wind power plants.
In addition, in offshore oil production platforms, polyurethane materials can also meet the application requirements
of pipeline bending restrictions, risers, hose bending stress protection, and the fixing of submarine oil pipes and cables.
