AUTAN^®

Foamed polyurethane elastomer whose internal composition of open and closed cells gives rise to a highly resistant cellular structure.

It is manufactured in different densities, which allows it to be used in various fields of application.

The load/strain curve has a linear behavior up to a deformation of approximately 40%. From this point on, it follows an asymptotic path, first slightly and progressively increasing until it reaches 80% deformation with respect to the initial height.

If it is used as a damping element and until 40% deformation is reached, depending on the type in question, a specific pressure value of between 0.2 and 1.1 Mpa (1 Mpa = 10.197 Kg/cm²) can be considered.

When used as a stop or end-of-stroke element to absorb impacts, it can withstand point loads of up to 15 Mpa without damaging the material.

AUTAN is formulated for applications requiring:

• High cushioning power
• Extraordinary volumetric compression set capability
• High resistance to tearing
• Exceptional resistance to hydrolysis.

Main applications:

• Elevation shock absorbers (buffers)
• Buffers
• Cushioning plates
