Vulkollan®
the ultimate-performance elastomer
• Highest mechanical load-bearing properties
• Optimum dynamic load-bearing capacity
• Made from Desmodur® 15
Vulkollan wheels are both a true classic and one of the most innovative plastics in the world. First developed in the 1950s from polyurethane (PU), invented by Otto Bayer in 1937, Vulkollan® quickly won over the industry. Users today can benefit from a wealth of experience with the hot-cast elastomer and take full advantage of its unique properties. Most worthy of mention in this connection are its extremely high mechanical strength and dynamic load-bearing capacity.
The right combination of critical properties makes solid and cellular Vulkollan® the materials of choice wherever numerous other candidates fail to make the grade. Even steel and rubber
are increasingly being replaced by Vulkollan®.
Vulkollan® is produced on the processor’s premises: Certified manufacturers make molded parts from the raw materials. The formulations and manufacturing process parameters are determined
by precise specifications defined in close cooperation with Bayer MaterialScience. This is an important prerequisite for maintaining a uniformly high level of quality in the engineering
material, formulated in part on the basis of the isocyanate Desmodur® 15.
A success in many areas,
Vulkollan® is often the best
solution.
