Hydroxyl number, mg KOH/g | 237.5 |
Water max. % | 0.03 |
Acid number, max. mg KOH/g | 0.05 |
APHA color, max. | 35 |
Viscosity, cSt, 25°C | 108 |
Specific Gravity, 25°C | 1.03 |
These properties collectively contribute to the polyol's functionality. The hydroxyl number of 237.5 mg KOH/g indicates its appropriate reactivity for polyurethane synthesis, ensuring proper cross-linking during curing. The low water content (max. 0.03%) minimizes the risk of foam defects, such as voids or uneven structure, which can arise from excessive moisture. Meanwhile, the acid number (max. 0.05 mg KOH/g) reflects high purity, reducing potential interference with catalyst performance. The APHA color (max. 35) and viscosity (108 cSt at 25°C) further support ease of handling and integration into various formulations.
Polyurethane Binders: It serves as a key component in binder formulations, contributing to the adhesion and structural integrity of the final product. Its balanced reactivity ensures that binders achieve the desired strength and flexibility.
Semi-rigid Packaging Foam: This polyol is particularly valued in the production of semi-rigid packaging foam, where it helps maintain the foam's cushioning properties and dimensional stability.
Other Foam Applications: Beyond binders and packaging foam, it is also utilized in one- or two-pack froth rigid foam systems, demonstrating its versatility across different foam types.
Notably, its ability to act as a viscosity reducer in rigid foam formulations (B-side) enhances processing efficiency, allowing for smoother mixing and application without compromising the end product's quality.
