Key Benefits of Kuraray Polyols
Kuraray will introduce their variety of MPD-based polyols with various molecular weights. The portfolio includes polyester polyols (P-series) and polycarbonate polyols (C-series). Kuraray polyols offer low viscosity due to the branched structure of the MPD. They are well-suited in many applications as constituents of polyurethane resins.
The methyl branch of Kuraray polyols provides significant advantages such as luxurious feel, softness, good solubility to solvents, better miscibility with other polymers, high transparency, good adhesiveness, and improved hydrolysis resistance.
Amongst these, the most prominent ones for adhesives are:
- Improved thermal conductivity: Low viscosity Kuraray Polyol allows for high filler content
- Good adhesion to Aluminum: Possible to maintain the performance under high temperature and humidity
- Maintain rubber elasticity as PUR from low to high temperature: Possible to use in cold regions
