ingevity will participate in a presentation by urethanes on thursday, february 23, 2023 at 11am et a webinar hosted by technology to introduce its new line of polycaprolactones designed to push the low temperature limits of polyurethane (pu) performance. scott, technical market development manager dr. phillips will present ingevity's capa® lt technology and its potential end applications.
advancing the low temperature extreme performance of polyurethane materials has a wide range of commercial opportunities in the transportation, aerospace, footwear, manufacturing, construction and medical markets. the ability to operate at low and high temperatures is important in many end applications ranging from industrial wheels and rollers, automotive bushings, mechanical seals, to snow sports and other outdoor footwear.
joel neale, commercial director of ingevity's engineered polymers business, said: "the introduction of capa® lt fills a gap in the market and provides solutions to customer challenges. in addition, capa® lt's reduced reliance on polytetramethylene glycol (ptmeg) technology, which has recently faced supply challenges, has polyurethane producers looking for alternatives.
