Polyurethane<\/h1>\n

The extrusion process<\/strong><\/a> can revolve around much different plastic materials<\/strong> such as ABS<\/a>, PVC<\/a>, polyethylene<\/a><\/strong>, and polyurethane<\/strong>. Since we have already talked about the first three, we will now talk about the last one and how Plasticol manufactures diverse products using this material.<\/span><\/p>\n

Here you can find everything there is to know about polyurethane<\/strong>; we\u2019re going to explain the characteristics of extruded polyurethane products and after that their uses in different industrial fields. <\/span><\/p>\n

But first of all, we should try to understand who is Plasticol<\/strong><\/a> and why it is so special. This company is, in fact, one of the few industry in Italy that has on its catalogue several types of products<\/strong> and that is able to create them using 12 different lines of production<\/strong> located in its headquarters. Plasticol even offers other services<\/strong> such as digital printing<\/strong> on the finished products and the chance to pick the colour<\/strong> of the plastic in use. <\/span><\/p>\n

Extruded polyurethane products: the characteristics<\/span><\/h2>\n

Polyurethane<\/strong> is a polymer made of organic components<\/strong>. Based on the percentage of its components the characteristics<\/strong> of the polymer can change. Overall, polyurethane is a very resilient<\/strong> material that is able to bear extremely high pressure<\/strong>. It is also very useful because of its vibration control<\/strong> and impact resistance<\/strong>, both present at high and low temperatures, and because it is easy to mold<\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n

The abrasion resistance is also great<\/strong> and that is the reason why this material is used in those industrial fields in which tear and wear are very common problems. Tension and compression<\/strong> don\u2019t damage goods made of polyurethane, since it can change shape and go back to its original one immediately after the force applied stops.<\/span><\/p>\n

Extruded polyurethane products: industrial fields<\/span><\/h2>\n

Where is polyurethane used? Actually, there are many industrial fields<\/strong> in which it is widely employed. First of all, the automotive<\/strong> one uses it to create suspension pads, bushings and drive belts<\/strong>. <\/span><\/p>\n

In the oil and gas exploration sector<\/strong>, extruded polyurethane products are extremely useful to manufacture fluid separation pigs<\/strong> and hydraulic seals<\/strong>, for example.<\/span><\/p>\n

Moreover, sheets<\/strong> made of this particular material can be used to build chute liners, essential components of industrial machinery<\/strong> in general or in power tools used in the construction fields in which a high abrasion resistance is needed.<\/span><\/p>\n

Extruded goods manufactured with polyurethane make our day to day life easier<\/strong> without us even knowing it: they are used to build printers<\/strong> and even ATM\u2019s parts<\/strong>!<\/span><\/p>\n
