Urochem 171 Molding Compounds can be supplied in an almost unlimited range of colors from translucent light pastels to black. Molded parts are free from odor; UV stable with good moisture resistance. Hard, glossy and scratch resistant surface. Excellent chemical resistance. Fats, oils and common organic solvents like alcohol and acetone do not attack molded parts which are also resistant to surfactants and weak bases. They will withstand attack from weak acids for a shorter duration. Excellent electrical properties (arc quenching, tracking, flame resistance). Oxygen index of 30% is achieved without the use of external flame retardants. No halogens are present in the composition.
