Polycarbonate Diols (PCD) for Durable Polyurethane Coatings

Polycarbonate Diols and Polycarbonate-based Prepolymers

ETERNACOLL® polycarbonate diols (PCD) and ETERNATHANE® polycarbonate-based polyurethane prepolymers to produce extremely durable Polyurethane (PU)

Polycarbonate Diols (PCD) and Polycarbonate-based polyurethane Prepolymers are used for a wide range of polyurethane-based coating formulations, providing extreme durability and a high performance to the final polymer.

These products offer customizable possibilities for superior & long-term retention of designed performances, with no modification of initial properties after being exposed in harsh environments.

The Polyurethane produced from Polycarbonate Diols or
Polycarbonate-based Polyurethane prepolymers is superior to the one
produced from polyether-diol or polyester-diol in terms of durability.

Why? Because it can provide outstanding performances, such as:

Excellent hydrolytic stability
Increased chemical and stain resistance
High thermal stability / lower yellowish
Improved mechanical properties
Better retention of gloss
Very good scratch & abrasion resistance, and others!
