ISOLOSS

HD series damping and isolation materials

ISOLOSSHD Series materials, from E-A-R Specialty Composites, are
tough, highly damped polyurethane thermosets. As sheets and molded
parts, the materials provide high performance damping, isolation, and
shock and motion control in more demanding electronic environments.
ISOLOSS HD materials achieve loss factors in excess of 1.0, ensuring
unparalleled performance in highest-need applications. A fire-resistant
formulationHDFalso is available, to meet the needs of projects with
UL94 flame requirements.
