Huntsman supplies a range of fully water-blown polyurethane systems based on both polyester and polyether technology. Polyester systems are characterized by superior strength and abrasion resistance whereas those based on polyether have an inherent resistance to hydrolysis and microbial attack – making them ideal for many midsole applications as well as unit soles and sockliners.
