Meet the powerful Urethane girls Ether & Ester.
Ether is the swimmer & is the best choice for wet applications. She can handle extremely cold Canadian temperatures. Ester is the choice for oily situations & solvent resistance…but water or steam can cause Ester to degrade. Both are extremely tough and are by far the strongest synthetic rubbers made.
Ether:
- excellent hydrolytic stability
- excellent mechanical properties
- low temperature flexibility
- resistance to dynamic heat
- superior rebound properties
Ester:
- abrasion resistance
- excellent mechanical properties
- excellent tear strength
- oil resistance
- resists heat aging
- solvent resistance
- vibration dampening
