Neuthane™ 3600 MDI-PTMEG Ether Quasi Systems

Neuthane™ 3600 MDI-PTMEG Ether Quasi Systems

Properties

Neuthane™ 3600 is a high performance MDI – PTMEG ether rotational casting prepolymer. It is based on 2000 molecular weight PTMEG polyol.

When used with Neuthane™ or self-formulated curatives it will produce roller coverings for use in arduous application areas.

Features

  • a high level of physical properties
  • very good dynamic performance
  • good hydrolysis resistance
  • ease of use
  • high resiliance
  • processing without moulds

Typical Applications

  • Steel mill rollers
  • Paper mill rollers

Processing can be by hand or by dispensing machine

Hand Processing

  • Melt prepolymer at 50-70°C for 12-24 hours
  • Heat the prepolymer and curative to the recommended temperature
  • Ensure that the curative is thoroughly mixed prior to use (the storage tank on the machine should be fitted with agitation to prevent separation during use)
  • Degass to remove air
  • Dispense at 700-2000g per minute*
  • Adjust rotation and traverse speed until a smooth build up is achieved*
  • Cure as recommended

* This will vary depending upon diameter of roller. As a general guide the output rate, rotational and traverse speeds will all increase as the diameter of the roller increases

Processing Considerations

  • Avoid moisture contamination of all materials
  • Part used containers should be flushed with dry nitrogen and resealed immediately after use
  • It is vital that the POLYOL component is completely liquid and thoroughly mixed prior to use
  • Due to the exothermic nature of the system larger mixes will have a shorter pot life

Alternatives

  • Dynamic/Resilience – PTMEG systems should be considered: Neuthane™ 600 [MDI prepolymer] or Neuthane™ 801 [MDI quasi]
  • Solvents/Abrasion - ester based systems should be considered: Neuthane™ 700 [MDI prepolymer], Neuthane™ 802 [MDI quasi] or Neuthane™ 200 [TDI prepolymer]
  • Humid/Wet - Aliphatic Isocyanate based systems should be considered: Neuthane™ 500 series
