FORTIMO™

High-durability 1, 4-H6XDI polyurethane elastomer

Characteristics

• FORTIMO™ 1,4-H₆XDI has a compact and highly symmetrical structure that forms a well-organized hard segment phase in reaction with chain extender, such as 1,4-burandiol.
• Polyurethane based on FORTIMO™ 1,4-H₆XDI achieves elasticity, heat resistance and light stability that was not able to be realized with conventional diisocyanate.
• Thermosetting polyurethane (TSU) shows improved flexural fatigue properties with good stability of the prepolymer.
• Thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) shows superior resilience, compression set and shorter demold time in injection molding.
