Is Urethane Rubber? Urethane is a member of the broader family of Rubber. Rubber embraces a large group of materials. Materials that have the ability, under certain conditions, to undergo large deformations. Yet they recover almost completely on the release of the deforming force. This elasticity is due to the repetition of long molecular chains […]

Is Urethane Plastic? “Is Urethane Plastic?” Good question – simple answer. “NO”. Let’s first understand the definition of durometer. Durometer is a measure of a material’s hardness – a material’s resistance to permanent indentation. With plastics, the higher the durometer, the more likely a part will crack or break under impact or shock loading. On
