A series of High Performance polyurethanes formulated for producing durable parts with extremely high elongation (356 – 800%) and tear strengths (130 – 325 pli) was introduced today by Innovative Polymers, Inc. The Shore A hardness elastomers exhibit outstanding resistance to gouging, cutting and abrasion as well as chemical and solvent exposure. The polyester polyol-based materials are ideal for casting amusement/ theme park ride components, oil/gas and mining equipment, and parts for the paper, printing and welding industries.

For the rapid production of thermoplastic-like prototypes and initial parts, Innovative Polymers has developed an optically clear, UV stable polyurethane that gels in less than 20 minutes and a high-performance polyurethane that meets UL 94 V-O standards and has a 90-second gel time.

Innovative Polymers Inc. is now featuring new product names for its IE-5000 series. IE-5050, IE-5060, IE-5070, IE-5080, and IE-5090 are now called OC-5050, OC-5060, OC-5070, OC-5080, and OC-5090, respectively. IE-5000 has not changed and will remain IE-5000.

A new polyurethane for fast production of durable, polypropylene-like parts was introduced by Innovative Polymers at RAPID 2009. RC-255 polyurethane features a 70-second work life, attains rapid green strength, can be demolded in less than 30 minutes. The cured system exhibits a heat deflection temperature of 230ºF (110ºC) and a flexural modulus of 300,000 psi.

A new line of polyurethanes formulated specifically for the casting of durable, dimensionally stable tooling is now available from Innovative Polymers.
