HYDEX® Key Facts
HYDEX 101, 202, 301 and 302 Rod and Slab stock are a family of rigid thermoplastic polyurethane products. HYDEX products are produced from lsoplast* engineering thermoplastic resins. lsoplast resins (HYDEX) are unique in the fact that they are amorphous which will yield properties such as good impact resistance, good dimensional stability and clarity approaching that of polycarbonate, but they also exhibit properties of crystalline polymers by having excellent chemical resistance and low moisture absorption.
Four grades of this resin are available:
HYDEX 301 and 302 are transparent grades, HYDEX 101 and 202 are opaque but have higher impact properties than that of the other two grades.
