Which other polymers does Bayer MaterialScience offer as an alternative to the thermoplastics?

Bayer MaterialScience produces polycarbonates, thermoplastic polyurethanes und polyurethanes.
This web site only covers the Bayer MaterialScience engineering thermoplastics product range in the form of granules. Other polymers, however, such as polyurethane (processed by polyaddition, combining two components) differ fundamentally in their processing method and thermal performance.
You can find a current overview of our products on following pages:
http://plastics.bayer.com

  • > Superficial fire propagation
  • > Heat evolution
  • > Dripping of flaming particles
  • > Development of smoke gas
