Innovation at SapiCi is a continuous process. among SapiCi most recent achievements, our low free-monomer range of hardening products developed for wood coating applications. SapiCi has leveraged almost eighty years of continued investments and experience to develop the technology for the production of isocyanates characterized by a content of free monomer guaranteed as lower than 0.1 per cent.the SapiCi Polurgreen range provides the company’s customers and their own customers – e.g. the final users – with significant benefits in terms of respect and protection of their health, safety and the environment. By using the SapiCi polurgreen range it is possible to produce safer varnishes, just replacing the isocyanates and without changes to either the formulations or production equipment.

in terms of labelling, SapiCi polurgreen range makes it possible to downgrade from “danger” to just “warning” symbols, immediately proving and showing the significant lowering of the potential risk of the final products allowed by SapiCi’s r&d capabilities and achievements. the company has built in 2004 its own plant for the production of the polurgreen range in San Cipriano po (pavia, it), from where – in addition to its other plants in italy and China – it serves its customers worldwide.respecting the business and requests of its customers, SapiCi has decided to keep producing its traditional products ranges for coating too. among them the Polurene and rexin ranges, respectively the isocyanate and rexin or oxidrilated rexin components for the production of multi-purpose varnishes. the ucopol moisture curing polyurethanes are available both as ready-to-use and as prepolymers for industrial formulations. the ucopol ol urethane oil and urtehane alkyd resins are obtained from renewable raw materials.the ucoflex series are solvent-based elastomers for clear and pigmented paints for aBS, pvC, pur, polystyrene and paper, showing good resistance to yellowing, abrasion and shock.among SapiCi latest innovations, the Bluepur coalescent-free waterborne polyurethane dispersion for coating applications.

advanced and high-performance products for wood, plastic and metal coating applications are the core of SAPICI offering. on these technologies the company has built its own reputation and credibility on the market worldwide, while expanding into new industries and applications.SAPICI has a large product range for coating applications on wood, metal, plastics and other surfaces. ask us about our Polurene, rexin and ucopol families of products.

FleXIBle PACKAgIng

SAPICI competence, experience and success in the development, production and commercialization of polyurethane adhesives for the flexible food packaging industry is based on its long track-record of success in the polyurethane business since the early Sixties.SapiCi specific offering of adhesives for flexible food packaging includes the Polurene FP range: two-component polyester / polyether based adhesives, nCo or oh terminated, with a wide range of characteristics including thermal and chemical resistance and the possibility to treat the completed film | film, film | metalized and film | aluminimum structures through sterilization and pasteurization processes. the polurene fp range is also available as one component, nCo terminated, for paper | aluminium and paper | film foil lamination, always with excellent bond strenght values.

Special Polyurethane Adhesives for the Flexible Food and non-Food Packaging Industries.SAPICI entered the flexible packaging business in 1995, leveraging its large experience in the polyurethane business. Since then, SapiCi specific offering to its customers has developed to include a complete range of competitive solutions branded as Polurene FP and Polurflex.

the highly innovative SapiCi Polurflex range of products has been developed to offer the flexible food packaging industry both improved performances and safer and more competitive solutions.SapiCi polurflex products, available either solvent-based or solvent free, nCo or oh terminated, are polyurethane adhesive systems that can be used with different mixing ratios to ease the achievement of the expected performances, and are suitable for a wide range of structures thanks to their good adhesion and wettability properties, also allowing for excellent final optics.SapiCi ranges of adhesives for flexible food packaging also include Primary Aromatic Amines (PAA) fast decay range products like the polurflex SB 200a, 200C, 350a and 950C. the polurflex SB 380a-lm and 380C-lm show very good adhesion with and without alu foil, along with very good chemical resistance, and do not need the r40 phrase on their label.

either solvent-based or solvent-free, SAPICI ranges of adhesives for flexible food packaging can be mdI-free and r40 free due to their very low free isocyanate content. SAPICI adhesives also allow for very low / no formation of aromatic amines.

Innovative Polyurethane Prepolymers for the most demanding Applications.

the SAPICI Polurcast series are a wide range of innovative and very low free tdi content (till less than 0.1 per cent of free monomer) polyurethane prepolymers suitable for the most demanding applications. among their characteristics the good hydrolysis and abrasion resistance, high elongation and tensile strength of the polurcast polyether-tdi based series. the Polurcast Pe series show higher compression modulus and higher tensile strength.

the Polurcast Pet series are polyester-tdi based, characterized by high solvent resistance combined with high ultimate tensile strength.

SAPICI commitment to the casting industry is strengthened by the continuous development of innovative solutions, like the new electro-conductive and nano-technology based Polurcast eC series.

the new electro-Conductive Seriesthe new, highly innovative SapiCi Polurcast eC range − nano-technology based products developed by the company’s new r&d laboratories in San Cipriano po − is characterized by electrical conductivity values that make it ideal for applications where discharge of electrostatic charges is necessary along with elevated chemical and mechanical properties. Blended with curing amines, they allow for the production of high-performance electrically conductive pu elastomers.

the SapiCi polurcast eC prepolymers have been perfected for the production of such applications as wheels (for forklifts and other equipment), tires, rolls (including rolls for printing machines), gears, conductive sheets and other applications requiring high hardness elastomers. most common applications are in the Chemical and petrochemical, paint and lacquer and automotive industries, as well as in contexts, areas and operations where the risk of fire or explosion has to be considered.

SapiCi keeps expanding its highly innovative polurcast eC range with new, high-performing products. as an example, an elastomeric material with final electrical volume resistance lower than 10.000 (104 Ω) can be obtained by using the SapiCi Polurcast Pe 95A-01eC without impacting either the equipment or the process conditions typically used in the casting industry.
