Vulkollan® Polyurethane Elastomers

Polyurethane Elastomers Based On Naphthalene-1,5-Diisocyanate (Desmodur® 15) For Demanding Mechanical And Dynamic Applications

Vulkollan® polyurethane in its primary form is a polyurethane elastomer based on naphthalene-1,5-diisocyanate    (Desmodur® 15), polyester polyol and special chain extenders.  Vulkollan is produced by hot casting, and is the ideal choice in all application areas that call for exceptionally high resistance to wear combined with a high mechanical and dynamic load-bearing capacity.
