Neuthane™ 500 Series Aliphatic - PTMEG Ether Prepolymer (94 Shore A - 70 Shore D)
Properties
The Neuthane 500 series are high performance Aliphatic Isocyanate prepolymers designed to produce items for use in extreme application areas.
They offer:
- a very high level of physical properties
- exceptional dynamic performance
- the highest level of hydrolysis resistance
- ease of use
- low viscosity
- water clarity and UV stability*
- wide hardness range depending upon curative used
Typical Applications
- High load roll coverings (e.g. steel industry)
- Roller coverings for use in hot/wet environments (e.g. pre treatment
and squeegee rolls in the steel industry) - High temperature applicationsPaper mill rollers
Processing can be by hand or by dispensing machine
Hand Processing
- Melt prepolymer at 50-70°C for 12-24 hours (as a guide the grades with the lower NCO value will take longer to melt than those with very high level NCO values)
- Heat the prepolymer and curative to the recommended temperature
- Add pigments and Antifoam, as applicable, whilst mixing
- It is recommended that air be removed from the prepolymer under vacuum prior to addition of the curative
- Add the curative and thoroughly mix ensuring that no unmixed material is left on the container sides (if necessary the mix can be transferred to a second clean container and mixed again)
- Remove air under vacuum
- Cast into moulds, preheated to the recommended temperature
- Cure as recommended
Processing Considerations
- Avoid prolonged storage of prepolymers at elevated temperatures.
- This will result in low hardness and lower properties of the cured material
- Avoid moisture contamination of all materials
- Ensure thorough mixing of curatives prior to use
- Remove air, under vacuum, from the prepolymer components prior to use
- Part used containers should be flushed with dry nitrogen and resealed immediately after use
Alternatives
- Solvents – ester based systems should be considered Neuthane 200 [TDI] or Neuthane 700 [MDI]
- Cost – Aromatic Isocyanate / PTMEG based systems should be considered: Neuthane 100 [TDI] or Neuthane 600 [MDI]
