QCTPblymeg could have helped Industrial casters and wheels e m p l o y i n g urethane elastomers resist c h u n k i n g or gouging, and those produced w i t h Q O Polymeg* possess excellent resiliency at l o w temperatures as w e l l . An unheated warehouse in the north or a frozen f o o d storage plant anywhere are typical of conditions that require l o w temperature flexibility of urethane covered wheels. Other physical properties of Polymeg-based polyurethanes are equally outstanding. Both elastomer producers and end
users benefit f r o m such additional advantages as: CHEMICAL FEATURES: No unsaturation • No ester linkage • No secondary hydroxyls PHYSICAL FEATURES: High fungus resistance • Superior tear strength • Excellent abrasion resistance • Low hysteresis loss • Remarkable resiliency • High moisture vapor transmission To begin your investigation of the high potential of Q O Polymeg, write for Bulletin 150-B.
