Chemtura Launches New Adiprene(R) K One-Component Urethane Systems.MIDDLEBURY, Conn. -- Chemtura Corporation (NYSE NYSE See: New York Stock Exchange : CEM CEM contagious equine metritis. CEM selective medium chocolate agar made with Eugon agar and 5% horse blood; used to cultivate Taylorella equigenitalis. ), a world leader in urethanes, is launching its much-anticipated Adiprene[R] K one-component urethane urethane (yoor´ithān´), n ethyl carbamate used as an anesthetic agent for laboratory animals, formerly used as a hypnotic in humans. systems at Rubber Expo, October 16 - 18 at the Cleveland Convention Center. Adiprene[R] K One-Component Urethanes offer a host of time/cost-saving benefits: * No weighing or mixing * Eliminate most capital equipment for mixing and metering * Less scrap from weighing and mixing errors * Reduced exposure to isocyanates and amine amine (əmēn`, ăm`ēn): see under amino group. amine Any of a class of nitrogen-containing organic compounds derived, either in principle or in practice, from ammonia (NH3). curatives * Virtually unlimited potlife, allowing very large or intricate pours * Quick demolding times, for improved productivity in small and/or thin parts The new Adiprene[R] K family of one-component urethane systems can provide processing advantages for applications ranging from abrasion-resistant elastomeric coatings to large, higher-hardness components. This versatility offers new levels of consistency and speed, opening up a whole new universe of possibilities for urethanes customers. Adiprene[R] K is made possible by a unique blocked curative composed of a methylene methylene /meth·y·lene/ (meth?i-len) the bivalent hydrocarbon radical —CH2— or CH2dbond. meth·yl·ene n. dianiline-NaCl (MDA (1) (Monochrome Display Adapter) The first IBM PC monochrome video display standard for text. Due to its lack of graphics, MDA cards were often replaced with Hercules cards, which provided both text and graphics. See PC display modes and Hercules Graphics. 3-NaCl) complex. "Historically, MDA3-NaCl has been utilized with conventional prepolymers for thin articles and remains a valuable tool for these applications," reports Chemtura Commercial Development Manager, Chris Maupin. "However, recent developments with low free monomer prepolymers and the blocked curative provide a foundation for developing new urethane product opportunities." Customers seeking data sheets on the Adiprene[R] K family should visit Chemtura Urethanes at Rubber Expo booth # 1106 or e-mail Christopher.Maupin@Chemtura.com. Please visit www.chemtura.com. |
