Millathane® Formulary and Grades
Millathane® millable polyurethane rubber comes in a number of Polyester and Polyether grades and subsequent formulary setups.
- Polyether grades have better water and hydrolysis resistance than polyester grades.
- Polyester grades have better heat, oil and compression set resistance than polyether grades.
- Most Millathane grades are available in a range of viscosities and can be packaged as dense bales or premilled sheets.
From the options below, choose the Millathane compound you are interested in to learn more about its Grade. You may then select the ID for the specific Hardness, Shore A to get the formulary.

Millathane® UV Curable
Millable Polyurethane
Millathane® UV is an ultra-violet curable millable polyurethane compound typically used with Millathane® 97, but other Grades can be used as well. Extrusions can be continuously cured and products molded using UV light without the use of ovens, microwaves, or salt bath units. These curable compounds can be extruded or calendered onto fabric or as an unsupported sheet and then continuously cured by passing them through a UV-curing conveyor belt chamber. Molded parts can be press-cured using special transparent molds to allow curing with UV light, or can be cured in a UV chamber. They are great for extruding hollow tubing and other continuous shapes, such as bars, rods, L-channels, U-channels, square tubing, and the like. It’s great for extruded protective covering over all types of cables, hoses, and protective conduits.

MillaMed® PU Rubber Compounds
for Medical Applications
MillaMed® are pre-mixed polyurethane rubber compounds designed specifically for medical applications. The compounds have excellent physical properties and abrasion resistance, as well as good radiation and gas permeability resistance. Possible applications include seals, gaskets, and septa.
These compounds are fully formulated and ready for molding and curing using conventional rubber processing equipment and techniques. Cured parts can be sterilized using autoclave, gamma radiation, or ethylene oxide gas (ETO). They have passed USP Class VI and cytotoxicity testing.
