IntegraThane
IntegraThane is a high-performance integral skin foam system that combines the durability of a rigid core with the comfort of a soft outer layer.
How IntegraThane Works
IntegraThane is a two-component, HFO-blown, polyether-based, integral skin foam system. It employs 1233zd as the primary blowing agent, which is known for its low global warming potential (GWP) and zero ozone depletion potential (ODP). Upon mixing, the foam expands and cures into a flexible core with a durable outer skin. The integral skin provides a smooth, aesthetically pleasing surface with excellent abrasion resistance and durability.
Common Uses
IntegraThane is used across multiple industries, including aerospace, spa, marine and boating, and recreation. Its unique blend of strength, flexibility, and aesthetic appeal makes it perfect for products that require a durable outer layer combined with a softer core.
- Armrests and Headrests
- Dashboards and Steering Wheels
- Exercise Equipment Grips
- Fitness Equipment Padding
- Bike Saddles
- Amusement Ride Padding
- Recoil Pads
- Helmet Layers
Benefits of IntegraThane
Durability
IntegraThane integral skin provides an abrasion-resistant outer layer that helps the foam withstand wear and tear while maintaining its structural integrity.
Flexibility
The core of IntegraThane foam provides excellent flexibility, offering both comfort and support in applications such as seat cushions and recreational gear.
High Mechanical Strength
With impressive tensile strength and tear resistance, IntegraThane provides durability and longevity in demanding applications.
Smooth Surface
IntegraThane foam creates a smooth, aesthetically pleasing surface that is ideal for products that require a polished appearance.
Rapid Demold Time
Quick demold times enhance production efficiency and can lead to cost savings and faster testing of designs.
