UBE’s ETERNATHANE, a polycarbonate-based urethane prepolymer, offers significant advantages for the design of durable, high-performance polyurethane elastomers. Ideal for preparing technical parts, seals, gaskets, rollers, and much more applications for oil, mining, industrial machinery and other industries, ETERNATHANE® excels in difficult working conditions.
One of the main advantages is the resistance to abrasion that they offer to the resulting elastomers, which ensures that they maintain their shape and functionality under constant use and intense friction. In addition, they provide notable chemical and thermal stability, which prevents the degradation of components exposed to extreme temperatures or aggressive chemicals and solvents.
The mechanical properties given by ETERNATHANE® are exceptional, offering a wide & customizable range of mechanical properties. This ensures superior performance in various industrial applications. It also highlights its ability to withstand heavy loads, crucial in industrial machinery where components must operate reliably under intense forces.
Another advantage offered by ETERNATHANE® to final PU elastomers is the great resistance to hydrolysis, solvents and chemicals, allowing its use in humid environments or in contact with aggressive fluids without losing its fundamental properties.
ETERNATHANE® polycarbonate-based urethane prepolymers provide an effective solution to today’s polyurethane elastomers design challenges. Choosing ETERNATHANE® ensures products that meet the highest standards of quality and reliability, improving operational efficiency and reducing maintenance and replacement costs.
