Catechol bis (2-hydroxyethyl) ether (CAEE) offers significant performance and processing advantages. This includes remarkably high tensile strengths, elongation values, and toughness in MDI systems. CAEE exhibits good miscibility in many polyols and compatibility with other polyurethane components. CAEE is recommended as a chain extender for cast and TPU polyurethane elastomers requiring high tensile properties, elongation and toughness in aggressive environments and high load demanding applications.
