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.

Generally, although PCD polyurethane tends to lack flexibility, use of liquid type DURANOL™ allows improvement of flexibility.
(Tensile test of polyurethane)
It can be seen that PCD polyurethanes are hard to decompose when compared to polyether urethanes and polyester urethanes.
(Change in the molecular weight of a polyurethane film immersed in hot water at a temperature of 100°C)
PCD polyurethanes show high strength retention even after storage at a high temperature.
(Change in the property of a polyurethane film stored at 120°C)
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.
