SynopsisPlastics offer many advantages over other common bearing materials. Plastics are extremely corrosive resistant and most are chemically resistant. Plastic bearings do not transfer heat to other areas of the mechanical assembly. Many plastics are even self.....
Synopsis Polymer concretes are a type of concrete that use polymers to replace lime-type cements as a binder. In some cases the polymer is used in addition to portland cement to form Polymer Cement Concrete (PCC) or Polymer Modified Concrete (PMC)......
SynopsisA polymer foam is a foam, in liquid or solidified form, formed from polymers. Examples include: Ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA) foam, the copolymers of ethylene and vinyl acetate; also referred to as polyethylene-vinyl acetate (PEVA) Low-density polyethylene (LDP.....
Synopsis Polyol Sweetener are organic compounds, typically derived from sugars. They are white, water-soluble solids that can occur naturally or be produced industrially from sugars. They are used widely in the food industry as thickeners and sweetener.....
SynopsisPolyolefins are the biggest class of commodity thermoplastics. These polymers are made of simple alkenes, which include ethylene, propylene, butenes, and pentenes, and their copolymers. Polyethylene (PE) and polypropylene (PP) are the two most widely used poly.....
SynopsisPolypropylene is a thermoplastic polymer which can be readily formed by catalytic polymerization of propylene. In foam form it is used for various applications such as packaging, automobile, construction, electrical and electronics, and medical industries.
SynopsisPolyurethane consists of organic components connected by urethane links. The majority of polyurethanes available are thermosetting polymers that do not melt at high temperatures. Polyurethane is conventionally utilized and is produced with the help of a polyol.....
SynopsisAdhesives are substances applied on one or both the surfaces to bind them together. They have replaced rivets, welded parts, and other mechanical parts in various equipment. Polyurethane adhesives reduce the overall costs of the entire manufacturing process. T.....
SynopsisA polyurethane coating is a layer of polyurethane (a type of polymer) that is applied to a material's surface in order to protect it. A polyurethane coating can protect the base material from corrosion, weathering, abrasion and other processes that would degra.....
Synopsis Polyurethane dispersion, or PUD, is understood to be a polyurethane polymer resin dispersed in water, rather than a solvent. Its manufacture involves the synthesis of polyurethanes having carboxylic acid functionality or nonionic hydrophiles l.....
