适用于耐用船舶设备的聚氨酯解决方案

When manufacturing equipment for use in marine environments, it can be difficult to ensure that parts perform as desired for extended periods of time.由于海洋环境中存在的环境因素，必须考虑多种设计因素。与干燥的内陆气候相比，湿气引起的腐蚀会导致内部和外部部件快速降解。海洋环境中盐的存在尤其具有破坏性，并会导致机械和电气系统出现问题。多年来，聚氨酯已证明自己是海洋环境中最具弹性的材料之一。

Long used in dockside equipment such as boat fenders, dock cushions, and bumpers, the material is unmatched when it comes to environmental degradation.耐紫外线和耐腐蚀使聚氨酯成为这些码头应用中不可或缺的材料。 Marine duty electronic systems benefit greatly from polyurethane sealing assemblies, ensuring that critical marine equipment remains functional over long term duty cycles. Winch equipment, marine cranes, ocean cameras, and sonar assemblies all use polyurethane to ensure proper function even if equipment has been idle for some time. Polyurethane fenders have been adopted by offshore drilling and constriction companies to preserve anti corrosion coating on steel docks and offshore dolphin assemblies. Docks and piers made of lumber have adopted polyurethane jacketing systems to preserve the lumber, as well as guard against damage due to boat impacts or tidal debris.

对于船用电缆和绳索处理，聚氨酯用于最大限度地减少对绳索系统的损坏。聚氨酯滚轮还用于安全处理海上光纤和电缆放置的电缆。 Using polyurethane pads and rollers, companies can unspool and place cable along the seafloor while minimizing damage to sensitive cable coatings. Offshore Oil and gas companies use polyurethane in all areas of drilling platform, including rig flooring, drilling seal assemblies, and blowout preventers.

Due to the sensitivity of marine environments, it is important to consider environmental factors when selecting materials for use near the ocean.某些塑料会在海洋环境中降解，导致水酸度变化，或将微塑料释放到环境中。经过多年的研究，已经证明，正确选择的聚氨酯在降解时不会导致水或海洋土壤的酸度变化。 Due to the hydrolysis that occurs when polyurethane breaks down in marine environments, the molecules are broken down into base elemental particles of carbon, hydrogen, and nitrogen. This means the urethanes will not become microplastics in the ocean, a problem which has come to the forefront of environmental considerations.
