Applications
Polyether polyols are a major component in the production of urethane chemistry-based Coatings, Adhesives, Sealants and Elastomers.
Examples of CASE urethane systems are:
- The adhesive system that glues the glass into a car window frame. It gives the car its structural stability and forms a seamless seal between the metal and the glass.
- The adhesive that bonds rubber scrap into tiles.
- The micro-cellular moulded elastomer that covers the metal frame in a car steering wheel.
- The non-foam elastomeric sheets that dampen the sound and vibrations under rail tracks.
CASE urethanes are among the most versatile of polyurethane applications and are characterised by their light weight, great durability and unique low temperature mechanical properties.
