What Materials Can Be Used in Vacuum Casting?
Casting polymers are available in various hardness, surface texture combinations, and colors. You can create fully opaque, translucent, or completely transparent parts depending on your application.
Polyurethane is the most commonly used casting material in the vacuum casting process. Polyurethanes have a variety of properties, including structural rigidity, elasticity, flexibility, shock and temperature resistance, and so on. It is probably the most widely used type of casting resin applied in various fields, such as electronics, medical devices, agriculture, aerospace, automotive, etc. As a result, different polyurethanes can be used depending on the type of product being manufactured.
The following are some of the most common materials we use:
Polypropylene (PP)
Polycarbonate (PC)
Acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS)
Pe-like
Glass-filled nylon-like
Thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) like
Fire-retardant (FR) PU
