In recent years, in order to meet the needs of the market, some companies often produce foam with a low density (10kg/m3). When producing ultra-low density soft foam, it is not enough to simply add foaming agents and assistant foaming agents. To achieve this, there must also be a combination of relatively high-stability silicon surfactants and catalysts.

Reference formula for producing low-density and ultra-low-density soft foam:

Name medium density low density Ultra low density
Continuous Box type Continuous Box type Box type
Polyether polyol 100 100 100 100 100
Water 3.0 3.0 Now we recommend a set of formulas, the characteristics of which are:

  • The basic polyether polyol remains unchanged, using conventional Mn5000 or 6000. ·
  • The isocyanate remains unchanged, and C-MDI, PAPI or modified MDI can be used.
  • Using special additive SH-140 can solve the problem. ·

Basic recipe:

  • Highly active polyether triol Mn5000 65pbw
  • SH-140* 35pbw
  • Chain extender: 1,4-butanediol 5pbw
  • Cross-linking agent: glycerol 7pbw
  • Pore ​​opening agent: K-6530 0.2~0.5pbw
  • Catalyst A-2 1.2~1.3pbw
  • Appropriate amount of color paste
  • Water 5pbw
  • MR-200 45pbw

Note: *SH-140 is our product.

Physical properties:

Overall foam density 340~350kg/m3

Product: Smooth surface, clear crust and low density.
