| Variable hardness |
Vulkollan can be produced in hardness grades ranging from Shore A 65 to Shore D 78. The E-modulus ranges from approx. 10 to 630 MPa.
|
|
| Permanent elasticity |
High deformations and load changes are possible.
|
|
Damping
|
Good damping behaviour - combined with the other physical properties (e.g. E-modulus) - makes Vulkollan the idea material for anti-vibration elements.
|
|
Torsional vibration
|
Vulkollan displays a constant and even elastic behaviour in a wide temperature range.
|
|
| Rebound resilience |
Vulkollan boasts high rebound resilience in all hardness grades. Even with hardnesses of over 95 Shore A, values of over 55% are still reached.
|
|
| Permanent deformation |
The low permanent deformation of Vulkollan is a decisive factor behind its successful use for items such as damping and sealing elements.
|
|
| Intitial tearing and tear-growth resistance |
Vulkollan features excellent tear-growth resistance, which can be more than 100 kN/m for some types.
|
|
Resistance to wear
|
Vulkollan's high resistance to wear ensures a long service life for expensive capital investments even under the harshest abrasive loads.
