Polyurethane elastomer. (Materials).


Isoloss HD polyurethane elastomer elastomer (ĭlăs`təmər), substance having to some extent the elastic properties of natural rubber. The term is sometimes used technically to distinguish synthetic rubbers and rubberlike plastics from natural rubber. , a proprietary damping damping

In physics, the restraint of vibratory motion, such as mechanical oscillations, noise, and alternating electric currents, by dissipating energy. Unless a child keeps pumping a swing, the back-and-forth motion decreases; damping by the air's friction opposes the
 and isolation material, is said to effectively control unwanted mechanical energy in applications that range from shock control in miniature computer disk drives to noise and vibration reduction in electromechanical devices. A flame-resistant formulation, Isoloss HDF (Hierarchical Data Format) A file format for scientific data that is developed and maintained by NCSA. Governments and research organizations around the world use HDF for archiving and distributing collected data.

HDF - Hierarchical Data Format
, also is available for applications with UL 94 flame requirements. It is listed V-2, in thicknesses from .56 mm to .70 mm. Isoloss HD sheet material is said to be ideal for gasketing, sealing and constrained-layer damping. For vibration isolation Vibration isolation is the process of isolating an object, such as a piece of equipment, from the source of vibrations. Despite construction distinctions the essence of all vibration isolation systems are similar. , it can be molded into isolators, including grommets, bumpers, bushings and sandwich mounts. It is said to be durable enough to use in severe environments. (E-A-R Specialty Composites, 7911 Zionsville Rd., Indianapolis, IN 46268)
