Introduction
In the fast-paced polyurethane industry, catalyst performance directly impacts productivity, foam quality, and cost efficiency. SYNOCAT® NEM (N-Ethylmorpholine, CAS 100-74-3) stands out as a versatile, high-purity catalyst optimized for polyester-polyurethane soft block foam systems. With >99% purity and unmatched consistency, it delivers faster curing, superior foam structure, and broader process adaptability compared to conventional catalysts.
Key Selling Points for Polyurethane Manufacturers
1. Precision Catalysis for Faster Production
- Rapid Reaction Kinetics: SYNOCAT® NEM reduces gel time by 15–20% versus standard catalysts, enabling shorter demolding cycles and higher throughput.
- Balanced Reactivity: Ensures uniform cell structure in soft foams (density: 18–25 kg/m³), minimizing defects like voids or shrinkage.
2. Enhanced Foam Performance
- Improved Comfort: Optimized open-cell structure enhances airflow, critical for mattress and automotive seating foams.
- Low Odor & VOC Compliance: Meets global standards (REACH, TSCA) for indoor applications.
3. Cost Efficiency
- Reduced Dosage: Achieve target reactivity with 10–15% lower loading vs. amine blends.
- Batch Consistency: ≤0.2% water content ensures stable catalytic activity across production runs.
