Innovative Polymers Introduces IE-9000 Series Polyurethanes For Moldmaking Print E-mail

A new line of polyurethanes formulated specifically for the casting of durable, dimensionally stable tooling is now available from Innovative Polymers.

The IE-9000 series of polyurethanes features performance properties including:

  • Extended gel time for use on large master models and molds.
  • Low shrink, even for mold volumes of 20 lbs. per casting.
  • Light amber, translucent color that facilitates visual examination of material flow and evacuation of trapped air as tools are cast.
  • Long-term color and translucence stability resulting from the use of an aliphatic resin system.
  • Excellent dimensional accuracy and stability.
  • Range of hardness values that allows toolmakers to select a system that will yield molds flexible enough for easy part removal.
