Application of Polyurethane

1.Foam is the largest application form of polyurethane materials, and can be further divided into two types: rigid foam plastics and soft foam plastics. Rigid foam plastics have excellent thermal insulation and mechanical strength, and are mainly used in construction and cold chain fields. Soft foam plastics have significant advantages in softness and high resilience, and are mainly used in soft materials such as sofas.

2. Polyurethane synthetic leather is currently the best artificial leather to replace animal leather, and it is widely used in shoemaking, bags, scarves, etc.

3. C.A.S.E. products include coatings, adhesives, sealants and elastomers. The cured product (after removal of water and solvents) of most C.A.S.E. materials is a non-foaming elastic polyurethane material. In the past ten years, C.A.S.E. materials have been higher than other products in terms of absolute growth rate and proportion in polyurethane products. Excellent water resistance, abrasion resistance, high temperature resistance and adhesiveness make them have a wide range of applications .
4. Polyurethane coatings can be used as automotive repair coatings, anti-corrosion coatings, floor paints, electronic coatings, special coatings, polyurethane waterproof coatings, etc.

5. PU adhesives and sealants can be widely used in many fields such as electronic appliances, building materials, automobiles and transportation, and are the fastest growing segments of polyurethane. my country has become the consumption center of global PU adhesives and sealants, and the production of global enterprises has gradually shifted to my country, and the production and sales of products have maintained rapid growth. According to the “China Adhesive Tapes and Adhesives Market Report and the 13th Five-Year Plan” issued by the China Adhesives and Adhesive Tape Industry Association, during the “13th Five-Year Plan” period, my country’s adhesive industry is still in an important period of development opportunities. The average annual growth rate is 8.3%. By the end of 2020, my country’s adhesive production will reach 10.337 million tons, and sales will reach 132.8 billion yuan.
