Solar/Electronics

Polyurethane is also gaining acceptance in the complex manufacturing process of the solar industry due to its high cut resistance and resilience

This is a field of industrial application where one would not necessarily expect the use of polyurethane elastomers. But the solar industry relies on the use of polyurethane to aid its complex production processes of silicon and semiconductor elements. The properties of excellent resistance to cutting, high resilience and the durability of elastomers are the key facts that speak for themselves.

WHAT ARE THE ADVANTAGES OF PUR COMPARED WITH RUBBER?

Polyurethanes differ from natural or synthetic rubber in a number of special features, such as:

  • outstanding wear- and abrasion resistance
  • high tensile strength
  • good damping and resilience
  • high tear resistance
  • good electrical properties
  • high resistance to mineral oil and fuel
  • high rebound elasticity over the full hardness range
