Polyurethane properties of polyols

The table below shows qualitative comparison of the impact of polyols on polyurethane. Although PCD offers excellent durability, hydrolysis resistance, and chemical resistance when compared to other polyols, its flexibility is inferior to that of the polyols.
Our PCD, DURANOL™ maintains the features of PCD as described above and offers improved flexibility.

Hydrolysis resistance of DURANOL™

It can be seen that PCD polyurethanes are hard to decompose when compared to polyether urethanes and polyester urethanes.

Chemical resistance of DURANOL™

It can be seen that PCD polyurethanes have a smaller swelling rate due to organic solvent when compared to polyether urethanes and polyester urethanes and copolymerized type DURANOL™ has an excellent swelling rate in particular.
