Laripur 7560

PTMG polyether TPU at Shore 77 A with very good resistance to hydrolysis and microbial attack. Seals and technical items, with 7560EG for hose, cable, profile and film.

Home Products COIM Laripur 7560

Laripur 7560 is a PTMG polyether based TPU at Shore 77 A. COIM states that it has very good resistance to hydrolysis and microbial attack, and indicates the standard version for the production of seals and technical items.

The 7560EG version is proposed for the extrusion of hoses, cables, profiles and film.

Elongation at break is 670 percent against a tensile strength of 6000 psi, with tear strength of 65 N/mm. Specific gravity is 1.10, the lowest figure in this catalog. The VICAT softening point is 158 degrees F.

Order the EG version when the material is going into a die. COIM identifies its extrusion versions with an end code after the grade number, and that code has to be on the purchase order.

Applications

Seals

COIM's first listed use for the standard version.

Technical injection moulded parts

Named on the data sheet.

Hose and tubing

Extrusion in the 7560EG version.

Cable jacketing

Extrusion in the 7560EG version.

Profile and film

Extrusion in the 7560EG version.

Wet service parts

COIM states very good resistance to hydrolysis and microbial attack.

Handling and dispersion

Dry before processing at 175 to 195 degrees F for 3 hours, preferably in a dehumidifying drier fed by air with a dew point below minus 22 degrees F. Skipping the drying step is the most common cause of splay and bubbles in a TPU part.

COIM's suggested moulding profile runs zone 1 at 355 degrees F, zone 2 at 365, zone 3 at 375 and the nozzle at 365. The suggested extrusion profile runs zone 1 at 375, zone 2 at 380, zone 3 at 390, zone 4 at 385, adapter 375 and die 365. Machine, screw and downstream equipment all move these, so treat them as a starting point.

Packaging, storage, and regulatory status

Package sizes: 25 kg bags, or 500 kg and 1000 kg octabins.

Storage: Six months from the date of delivery, in the original sealed packaging, in a dry well ventilated place out of direct sun.

COIM does not consider the product dangerous. Read the safety data sheet before handling.

Frequently asked questions

Is Laripur 7560 a seal grade?

COIM indicates the standard version for the production of seals and technical items. It is soft at Shore 77 A, which suits a static or lightly loaded seal. For heavy duty hydraulic sealing, Laripur E 107-93A at Shore 93 A is the grade COIM builds for it, and it publishes compression set data this one does not.

Does COIM publish compression set for it?

Not on this sheet. Compression set is published for 2203-93A and E 107-93A. If compression set is the property you are specifying on, ask and we will get the figure from COIM rather than estimate one.

Will it survive hot water?

This is the chemistry for it. COIM credits the PTMG polyether grades with very good resistance to hydrolysis and microbial attack. Tell us the temperature, the fluid and the duration and we will confirm the grade.

What is the polyester equivalent?

Laripur 7025 at Shore 70 A or 8025 at Shore 84 A bracket it. Both are polyester, both have better abrasion figures, and neither carries the hydrolysis resistance.

Can I get the TDS and SDS for Laripur 7560?

Yes. We send the Technical Data Sheet (TDS) and Safety Data Sheet (SDS) on request, in the manufacturer's current revision. Use Request TDS or SDS above and tell us what your qualification review needs.
