Product Description
Product Details
Introduction
KT HER-L is a mixture of meta-substituted phenyl ether diols with 3-hydroxyethyloxyethyl-1-hydroxyethyl phenyl diether as the main component, and is a homologue of HER. Due to the components with asymmetric molecular structure, the chain extender is normally a viscous liquid, commonly known as liquid HER (HER-L).
KT HER-L has slightly poor fluidity in low temperature environment in winter, and its viscosity decreases after warming to 25°C, making it easy to operate. This product is suitable for elastic polyurethane products with medium hardness. Compared with HER, which is solid at room temperature, KT HER-L is easy to use, and the prepared polyurethane elastomer has the characteristics of higher elongation and excellent flexural properties. Compared with aliphatic diol chain extenders such as 1,4-butanediol, the elastomer prepared by KT HER-L as a chain extender has good heat resistance.
