The low water content of 0.03% max ensures that the polyol maintains stability during processing, reducing the risk of unwanted reactions that could affect the quality of the final polyurethane product. The acid number of 0.05 mg KOH/g max indicates a high level of purity, which is crucial for ensuring compatibility with other components in polyurethane formulations. With an APHA color of 35 max, the polyol has a clear appearance, which is desirable in many applications where visual quality is a consideration. The viscosity of 108 cSt at 25°C and specific gravity of 1.03 at 25°C are important physical properties that influence handling and mixing processes in production.
This polyol is primarily used in the production of binders, where it contributes to the formation of strong and durable bonds. Additionally, it finds application in prepolymer applications, various packaging foams, and thermal breaks. In packaging foams, it helps in providing the necessary cushioning and protective properties. For thermal breaks, it aids in enhancing the insulation performance, making the end products more energy-efficient. Its role as an effective viscosity reducing agent for rigid foam formulations further expands its usability in different production scenarios, allowing for easier processing and improved flow characteristics of the formulations.
Most FH series polyols, including FH-60230238 polyol, present no significant hazard in use when simple precautions are followed. However, some FH series polyols may be hazardous, so it is essential to understand the hazards involved in handling all components and establish and follow safe work procedures. Material Safety Data Sheets, product literature, and safe handling and storage information are available for the polyurethane components supplied by Hug Chem. For any ingredient not furnished by Hug Chem, recommendations for handling, storage, and disposal should be acquired from the respective supplier.
FH-60230238 polyol is slightly hygroscopic and may absorb water, so containers should be kept tightly closed to protect against contamination with moisture and foreign materials, which can adversely affect processing. At low temperatures, this product can become quite viscous. Therefore, storage temperatures between 15°C (59°F) and 60°C (140°F) are recommended to ensure ease of handling. When stored in sealed original containers under the stated conditions, the shelf life is twelve months after receipt of the material by the customer. The product is available in 200kg nonreturnable steel drums and 1000kg IBC tanks made from HWHDPE, providing options to suit different production scales and storage requirements.
Appropriate literature has been assembled to provide information on the health and safety precautions that must be observed when handling this product. Before working with FH-60230238 polyol, it is mandatory to read and become familiar with the available information on its risks, proper use, and handling. This information is available in several forms, such as safety data sheets and product labels. For further details, contact the Service department of Hug Chem.
