Abstract
AbstractThe polyurethane protective surface material, which were made from four different types of polyester and polyether polyol, have been studied with respect to their ultimate properties. The PTMG (polyoxytetramethylene glycol)‐ and PPG (polyoxypropylene giyco)‐based polyurethane protective surface materials exhibited the best results. Use of JIPNs (joint interpenetrating polymer networks), prepared from combinations of polyurethnes with an epoxy adduct with coupling agents and talc, could clearly improve the adhesive strength resistance to water in negative pressure cavitation erosion (by determination with a rotating dish apparatus) and the adhesive strength resistance toward boiling water. The polyurethane protective surface material, which was composed of three separated layers, showed better resistance to cavitation erosion than an epoxy system, poly(methyl methacrylate), aluminum, steel, and different alloys in tests using the venturi tube and the rotating dish apparatus for simulated cavitation erosion, as well as in some power stations in actual field trials.
