Technogel info required
(OP)
Hello
We are currently designing a product that we feel would be perfect for the material Technogel. We have some samples,
and I have been in touch with Technogel in Italy. They have been helpful up to a point. When we ask how this material is molded they become very cagey.(they say they are the only ones able to process and mold it.)
Would anyone here be able to help us. Are there other materials that have similar properties and characteristics?

RE: Technogel info required
If so and if your supplier is withholding details about it's chemical type, I would have serious doubts about their integrity.
Ask them for an MSDS and for a CAS number.
That should identify the polymer type and give us a starting point re recommendations.
