| MILLATHANE HT is a polyester millable polyurethane which has the ability to withstand elevated temperatures. Polyurethanes have been known for their excellent resistance to abrasion, impact, tear strength, oil and fuel resistance, and ozone resistance. The life expectancy of urethane is often 5 times longer than other elastomers, thus saving material costs and downtime expense. One shortcoming of polyurethanes is loss of physical properties at temperatures over 180°F (82°C). MILLATHANE HT has overcome this weakness. THANECURE ZM activator is a partial complex of zinc chloride and MBTS which develops a fast rate of cure in MILLATHANE® HT. The improvement in the rate of cure in MILLATHANE HT imparted by the addition of THANECURE ZM is shown below. The addition of the THANECURE ZM improves the compression set resistance and does not detract from the outstanding abrasion and tear resistance of its vulcanizates.
