Doctor blade for screen printing

In screen printing, flexible doctor blades are used for distributing the printing inks. They must be able to withstand a wide variety of stresses and strains and must also have good swelling resistance in contact with the ink solvents used in the printing industry. This is no problem for Vulkollan®, because it is free of fillers and plasticizers – a factor that contributes to its good chemical resistance.

With long printing runs, it is essential that the quality of the prints remains consistently good from beginning to end. Since the edges of the blades are subjected to considerable wear and tear, it must have very high dimensional stability. The high shear modulus of Vulkollan® and its low permanent deformation are key factors when it comes to ensuring consistent print results. In addition, the quality of the fabrics is rising all the time, increasing the strain on the blade material. Vulkollan's® high mechanical resistance ensures a long service life and considerably minimizes the work involved in subsequent sharpening.

This superior combination of properties – namely high mechanical strength and excellent chemical resistance – guarantees an extremely long service life even when the doctor blades are subjected to extreme conditions.

Sensor elements

To track down any corrosion damage or cracks in oil and gas pipelines, the workers use UCSD "go-devils" equipped with Baytec P sensor strips. Because Baytec P has such high elasticity, the sensor elements can always stick close to the pipe wall, even when they pass over pipe bends or travel through narrow cross-sections, thus minimizing measuring errors.
Other specifications made on the elastomer are particularly high resistance to wear and tear and outstanding swelling resistance.

Protective strip for snowplough

An elastic strip made of Baytec P on the front of a snow-clearing machine has enormous advantages. It is easy to install and, because it is so hard-wearing, it lasts for several winters.
Apart from this, it remains highly flexible even at sub-zero temperatures, preventing damage to the roads. The outstanding resilience of Baytec P means that the protective strip will spring back from any obstacle it hits and thus prevent damage to the vehicle. With all these advantages, the snowplough can work fast without fear of being damaged

Device for light therapy

A light therapy device that specifically activates the self-healing forces, relieves the organism and triggers regenerative processes has been developed by Bioptron AG in Mönchaltorf, Switzerland. The Bioptron 2 model works by encouraging cell activation, known as biostimulation of the cell. The housing of this device is manufactured by emaform AG, which is based in the Swiss town of Gontenschwil. The company uses the Baydur® 60 polyurethane integral skin foam system, developed by Bayer MaterialScience AG primarily for the production of technical housings.

On the look-out for a lightweight, tough and rigid material which would reproduce the complex design of the light therapy device perfectly, the choice fell on Baydur® 60. Because with its excellent flow properties, this polyurethane system has proved its suitability even for the production of large moldings with complex geometries. Thanks to its mold reproduction accuracy, finely detailed textures can also be rendered.

Another argument for integral skin foam system from BaySystems is that it forms a solid outer layer which, together with a two-pack polyurethane coating, produces a highly-resistant, easy-care surface.

Baydur® 60 also delivers the goods as far as economics are concerned. The parts can be made with inexpensive aluminum molds because the internal pressure generated in the mold is particularly low. Apart from this, the integral skin foam can easily be combined with other materials, which means, for example, that thread inserts can be pre- positioned in the mold and molded in place, considerably simplifying subsequent fabrication.

Helios movie projector

A cabinet can be far more than a handy, light and robust case. This has been proved by the Helios video projector and its sophisticated exterior made of Baydur® polyurethanes from BaySystems®. Available in a variety of colors, it is perfectly at home in its environment, whether at conferences or presentations.

The Helios digital video projector from the Italian company Vidikron Industries S.p.A. has a special visual appeal in more than one sense. The highly sophisticated electronics packed inside the set are protected by a cabinet manufactured by 2a.effe of Lissone, Italy, using polyurethanes Baydur® 60 and Baydur® 110 from BaySystems®. In addition to offering a perfect combination of design and functionality, these two materials also provide a number of structural benefits, including an excellent surface finish that is ideal for high-grade coatings and gives the projector a distinctively elegant appearance

polyurethane that hits the right note

Whether it's a matter of achieving a pleasant sound quality in a refurbished concert hall, or adhering to noise control guidelines in an industrial plant, experts are always needed to investigate the acoustics of these premises using sensitive microphones and no less sensitive, although frequently bulky, test sound sources. The Brüel & Kjaer company of Naerum, Denmark, has developed a precision sound source for acoustic measurements that eliminates many of the problems associated with conventional sound emitters. The slim housing of the device, manufactured by Dupont plastic ApS, Hjortshoj, Denmark, is made of castable Baydur® GS from BaySystems®. This wear-resistant material offers the design freedom needed for a high-tech product, guarantees exceptional dimensional stability and can also be processed cost-effectively even in small-scale production.
