Elastomers

High Performance Solutions

The CASE product line consists of coatings, adhesives, sealants and elastomers. The CASE materials are used in different industries including the construction industry, transportation, textiles, architecture. They improve the performance, operation, resistance and appearance of the products and ensure excellent durability for long-term use.

In the CASE applications, polyurethane and polyurea systems are frequently used for the production of materials with superior performance properties and special uses.

Polyurethane (PU) improves the mechanical properties of the materials as well as the surface hardness in elastomers and ensures the materials to be long-lasting and durable.

Kimpur has a wide portfolio of prepolymer and systems for various CASE applications, under the KIMcase^® Special Products Group. KIMcase^® Special Products, designed for the industries of construction, maintenance and repair, are the result of an innovative technology based on special polymers developed following several applications.

KIMcase^® Elastomers

Elastomers are rubber-like materials composed of long-chain molecules or polymers that can return to their original shape after being significantly stretched.

KIMcase^®Elastomers offer a wide range of applications with two-component cast elastomers, reaction injection molding (RIM) systems, and PU gel solutions. Thanks to their superior properties such as high impact resistance, flexibility, and abrasion resistance, they deliver excellent performance in both industrial and specialized applications.

1. Two-Component Cast Elastomer Systems

These are two-component polyurethane systems that are injected into closed molds using either low or high pressure.

Areas of Use:

Filled mats
Industrial roller coatings
Hydraulic seals
Elevator bumpers
Industrial filters
Flotation cells
Textile rollers
Wheelbarrow wheels

Advantages:

Can be applied with fillers.
Provides a smooth skin appearance.
Exhibits both plastic and elastic behavior.
Can be designed with different densities, hardness levels, and demolding times.
Offers vibration and impact damping properties.
Demonstrates high resistance to varying environmental conditions thanks to its thermoset structure.
Ensures dimensional stability due to its macromolecular structure.
