PORON® Microcellular Urethanes exhibit many characteristics which are beneficial to the defence industry. These include:

- Excellent compression set resistance which enables durable, long-term performance for gasketing, sealing, and cushioning.

- Low-outgassing and non-fogging, containing no plasticizers or residual chemicals to contaminate the device. The material will not become brittle and crumble and is non-corrosive to metal.

- Inherently flame retardant without the use of additives. Many of the materials meet flammability requirements of UL HBF and MVSS 302.

- Engineered urethane formulations offering a wide modulus range - 2-90 psi @ 25% deflection – for more design versatility requirements.

- Good chemical resistance

- Easy to fabricate, die-cuts cleanly and works with a broad range of adhesives.
