These include heat and chemical resistance, release, hardness and modulus. An effective roll covering must possess characteristics which match the requirements of the specific application. Urethane roll coverings for corrugated applications typically must exhibit high coefficient of friction properties, abrasion, and heat and ozone resistance.
