Kubis polyurethane elastomers, with their unique material properties, are replacing traditional metal materials in a number of industries, offering significant performance improvements and environmental benefits. Here are some of the key advantages of elastomers over metals:
Low density: Polyurethane elastomers are 1/7th the density of iron, which means they are lighter in weight for the same volume, helping to reduce the overall weight of the equipment and achieving low energy consumption.
Chemical resistance: Polyurethane elastomers are highly resistant to chemicals, hydrolysis and seawater corrosion, which allows them to excel in environments such as chemical and offshore engineering, where high corrosion resistance of materials is required.
Abrasion and impact resistance: Polyurethane elastomers are more than 8 times more resistant to abrasion than iron and more than 3 times more resistant than stainless steel, allowing them to withstand higher levels of wear and impact and extend the life of the equipment.
Cushioning and quieting capabilities: Polyurethane elastomers have good cushioning properties that reduce noise from impacts, improve operational comfort and protect impacted objects.
Environmentally friendly properties: Polyurethane elastomers do not consume mineral resources and reduce carbon emissions, in line with the environmental concept of sustainable development.
Cost-effectiveness: Although the initial cost of polyurethane elastomers may be higher than some metals, their lower long-term cost saves energy and maintenance costs, resulting in energy savings.
Safety: Polyurethane elastomers are non-static and non-conductive, which reduces the risk of safety hazards caused by static discharge or current leakage.
These advantages make Kubis polyurethane elastomers ideal for a wide range of applications, from industrial machinery to automotive manufacturing to marine engineering. If you have questions or need more information about polyurethane elastomers.
