Explanation:
polyurethane

I suspect that "polyeurothene" is just a misspelling.

disagree  tom_goto: Europium, Eu, is one of elements, so this is not a misspelling.

agree  Maynard Hogg: Google found only 14 hits for polyeurothene, woefully low considering the size of the ski market.
3 hrs
  -> Actually I used google too, then found "polyurethane" is too "unusual".
agree  Timothy Takemoto: And the hits on Google all look like mistakes for polyurethane.

agree  Tanuki (X): Moreover, no patents containing the term "*polyeurothene" are present in USPTO DB.

agree  rya (X): Should be a polymerization product of urethane monomers(-NHCOO-). Kaori, just check the structure if you have one.

I could not find the material ¥"polyeurothene¥" in my dictionaries.

  -> Thank you for your comment. I want to check another dictionary.
disagree  rya (X): Unless you can covince me with the existence of "eurothene" monomer including its structure, otherwise. I did CAS and polymer search, but was not successful. Sorry.
