Polyurethanes
International Coatings manufactures a variety of urethanes
including the following:
35L-89S W.B. Topcoat
A water base Polyurethane Lacquer which exhibits high gloss,
excellent abrasion resistance and adhesion to a wide variety
of materials, except for untreated polyolefins. 35L-89S W.B.
Topcoat can be supplied as both a high gloss or matte finish
clear and can be pigmented to achieve a wide variety of colors,
both transparent and opaque. It is formulated to be applied
by conventional air suppplied spray gun, the product can be
modified for brush or roller applications. 35L-89S W.B. Topcoat
will air dry or the drying can be accelerated with low heat.
Too much heat can result in blistering of the film
Product Specifications:
% Solids - 28-30%
Viscosity - 40-45 Sec./Zahn Cup #2
pH - 8.5-9.5
One Part Water Base Urethane Coatings
Water base urethanes can be used for painting over urethane
or polyvinyl parts. These urethane systems can be water clear
or pigmented. They are available in a range of finishes, from
high gloss to dull.
Two Part, Castable Polyurethane
Elastomer
Two part polyurethanes can be mixed by hand, or for better
results by a dispersing machine. When properly mixed, the two
part polyurethane components will produce castable elastomers.
These elastomers can be produced with a range of mechanical
properties and with varying hardness - from 40 Shore A to 80
Shore D. Gel times can be set from two minutes on up.
Typical applications include:
- Sporting Goods
- End Caps for Liquid and Air Filters
- Mold Making
- Gaskets and Seals
- Caulking
- Conveyor Lining
Flexible Polyurethane Foams
Flexible foams have limited resistance to applied load. The
are open-celled, permeable to air, and reversibly deformable.
They can be used in furniture, bedding, carpet underlay, packing,
and more. The density of the foams vary depending on required
physical properties.
