RIM-Integral Technology

RIM products are high density, hard and stroke resistant. Two components polyurethane systems with special formulation that are injected into the molds by high pressure machines, are formed RIM products.

Outer parts of automotives are produced by RIM technology. They have wide usage in automotive fields. RIM are abbreviation of Reaction, Injection and Moulding.
 
Reaction: It begins with two or more components mixture
Injection: Application of transferring mixture into the moulds
Moulding: Moulding the mixtures as a result of curing to obtain the desired products.

Integral Polyurethane Systems

Polyurethane foams  depend on polyol systems and isocyanates that give hard, flexible and semi rigid or semi flexible structure.  The foams that has flexible inner structure, open cell, hard shells and semi flexible foam, is called Integral foams or just Integral PU (Polyurethane). Integral polyurethane sometimes called semi rigid PU foams. The most important features of semi-rigid foam are absorption, extinguish, sorption. Therefore, they are used in anti-vibration and anti-sound purpose.
 
Raw materials, moulds and machine are important in production of Integral Polyurethane Foams. Mold release agents and internal mold paints should be chosen carefully for the application.
 
Integral Polyurethanes are used mainly in automotive and office furniture fields.
