(specialchem4adhesives) -- Dow Formulated Systems, a
business unit of The Dow Chemical Company, has announced plans to launch a new
line of HYPERLAST and DIPRANE non-mercury catalyzed polyurethane elastomer
products.
Dow is committed to continually create today's and tomorrow's
solutions for helping make the world safer, healthier, cleaner and more
sustainable for all of us. Within the Engineering Elastomers business this is as
important as ever.
There is public concern with mercury and
phenylmercury substances and under the REACH Regulation (Regulation (EC) No
1907/2006): there is a proposal to restrict five phenylmercury substances. Dow
has worked to remove the use of organo mercury catalysts from its polyurethane
elastomer products.
