CAPA for spearhead performance
Polyurethane Manufacture
Elastomeric Fibres

 
Spandex fibres produced by the reaction of a prepolymer and diamine chain extender use CAPA® polyols for some specialist products and applications. They are typically used in the manufacture of swimwear and support clothing.

The benefits provided by CAPA® products are:

  • Lower power enabling higher usage levels.
  • Excellent resistance to oxidative attack and particularly aqueous chlorine.
  • Aliphatic polyester hence UV stable.
  • Very good oil resistance.
  • Narrow molecular weight distribution gives low viscosity polyol for ease of processing.
  • Consistent controlled reactivity.
