Frontline insights on catalysts, new materials and industry applications.
Every polyurethane foam formulation is, at its core, a race against time between the blowing reaction (water and isocyanate generating CO2 gas) and the gelling reaction (polyol and…
Waterborne polyurethane coatings use water as the dispersing medium, cutting VOC emissions sharply compared with solvent-based systems. Catalysts here mainly promote three reactions: isocyanate-hydroxyl, isocyanate-water, and epoxy-amine, strengthening…
Waterborne polyurethane (WPU) is an environmentally preferable polymer material widely adopted across construction, automotive and furniture, but conventional waterborne systems still struggle with slow cure and limited water…
