Elastomers are rubbery materials that are composed of long-chain molecules or polymers and can return to their original shape after stretching.
KIMcase elastomer systems are used in different fields including two-component molding elastomers, reaction injection molding and PU gel types.
1- Two-Component Molding Elastomers
Two-component polyurethane systems that are injected with both low-pressure and high-pressure machines in closed molds.
Areas of Usage:
- Filled mats
- Industrial roller coatings
- Hydraulic seals
- Elevator chock
- Industrial filters
- Floating cells
- Textile roller
Advantages:
- Can be applied with filling.
- Ensures a smooth skin appearance.
- Acts like plastics and elastics.
- Can be designed with different density, hardness and demolding times.
- Vibration and shock absorption.
- Thanks to its thermoset structure, it shows high resistance to changing ambient conditions.
- Dimensional stability thanks to its macromolecular structure.
2- RIM (Reaction Injection Molding) System
It is a two-component polyurethane RIM system for automotive and composite industries, injected with low pressure in closed molds.
Areas of Usage:
- Automotive outer panel/bumper parts
- Industrial device cases
- Reinforced composite production
Advantages:
- Allows obtaining high-density and hard products.
- High shock resistance.
3- Polyurethane Gel
Kimpur has developed a polyurethane gel system with various hardness and elongation rates.
Areas of Usage:
- Viscoelastic (memory foam) pillow surfaces
- Shock absorbing pads
- Bicycle saddles
- Wrist pads for keyboards and mouse pads
Advantages:
- Acts like plastics and elastics
- High comfort thanks to its adjustable hardness
- High durability
