to medium production runs can be easily accommodated. When compared to conventional thermoplastic films, thermoset polyurethane films offer improved tensile strength, tear strength, and abrasion resistance. Potential applications include use in abrasion-resistant coatings and transparent coverings for switches, self-adhesive tapes, gaskets, diaphragms, and more. The films can be laminated to other materials (e.g., PTFE) or coated with adhesives to create advanced composite film structures with multiple performance and manufacturing capabilities. Opaque, colored, translucent, and nearly clear films are available. The films are also offered with Mearthane's patented conductive technology to provide static dissipation in applications with resistivity ranges as low as 1 x 107 (omega)-cm.
