Durethane® C- Conductive Solid or Foam

Polyurethane and metal rollers

Durethane® polyurethanes can be custom-formulated for conductivity ranging from E7 ohm-cm to E9 ohm-cm. Conductivity levels as high as E5 ohm-cm are available in certain formulations.

Durethane® C formulations use low percentages of our proprietary additives to control conductivity uniformly throughout the product. This preserves the strength, resilience, thermal stability, and service life of the polyurethane.

 

Characteristics MPC worker inspecting polyurethane rollers

  • Extremely uniform electrical conductivity
  • Low conductant loading, low migration

 

Applications

Durethane® C is widely used in office and paper handling machines including copiers, thermal printers, and laser printers. It is ideally suited for laser printer charge and developer rollers for toner dispensing and tribocharge management. Durethane® C is also used in paper transport assemblies in copiers, fax machines, collators, postage meters, and other transport applications where static build-up is a problem. It can provide ESD protection in agricultural, mining, and materials-handling applications such as drive and conveyor belting, tank and bin liners, and hose and tubing. Other applications include antistatic drive belts for silicon wafer transport and clean rooms, and wheels and rollers for ride and show vehicles.
