Polyurethane moldings are highly regarded for their impressive performance, which is why they enjoy widespread popularity. They have a longer lifespan than plastic and are more resistant to impact, abrasion, radiation, cold flow, and low temperatures than rubber. Additionally, they possess elastic memory, dampen noise, and exhibit resistance to heat and chemicals. They combine many desirable qualities of metal, rubber, and plastics, and are capable of forming strong adhesive bonds with most plastics and metals.
Compared to most rubber materials, polyurethane is more resistant to petrochemicals. Polyurethane is an effective material for casting, and cast polyurethane performs well with low pressure tooling and thick section molding.
Cost Effectiveness
By utilizing polyurethane Overmolding, the expenses associated with tooling are cheaper. It can be comparable in price to rubber and polymer molding.
Quality
Parts formed using polyurethane Overmolding technology do not have any drafts or undercuts. It can precisely handle various part sizes.
Efficiency
Polyurethane Overmolding boasts a rapid turnaround time, Polyurethane overmolded parts require almost no additional finish machining.
Material Superiority
Polyurethane exhibits robust resistance to radiation, ozone, oxygen, oxidatied oil, tearing, cutting, and abrasion. Moreover, it not only boasts easier colorability than rubber but also surpasses certain types of steel in wear resistance. Compared to metal, polyurethane is more elastic and better at reducing noise.
Polyurethane possesses excellent tensile strength, pliability, resistance to tangling, and breathability.
Yes, the color of the polyurethane overmolded part can be customized. Pigments can be added to the polyurethane material during the manufacturing process to achieve the desired color.
Polyurethane materials typically have limited recyclability due to their complex chemical composition. However, there are recycling methods available for specific types of polyurethane, such as mechanical recycling or chemical recycling processes.
Yes, different durometers of polyurethane can be used in the overmolding process. This allows for the creation of multi-durometer components with varying levels of hardness or softness in different areas of the final product.
