QHA-A230

QHA-A230

QHA-A230, equal to catalyst A-230, it is a balanced gel blow catalyst for use with methylenechloride or other auxiliary blowing agents that tend to destabilize foam formulations. It can be used to produce both low and high-density foams. The superior blow characteristics of catalyst A-230, compared to triethylenediamine (TEDA), allow the manufacture of foams possessing improved “hand” or feel. Moreover, this versatile catalyst performs equally well in formulations that do not use auxiliary blowing agents

III. Application Fields and Catalytic Characteristics

Application Fields

QHA-A230 is a professional balanced gel-blow catalyst for the polyurethane foam industry, and its application covers the full range of polyurethane foam production from low to high density. It is the core catalyst for foam production formulas with special requirements such as containing methylene chloride or other auxiliary blowing agents that tend to destabilize foam formulations, and is also perfectly adapted to foam production formulas without any auxiliary blowing agents.

Core Catalytic Characteristics

  1. Balanced gel-blow reaction : Precisely regulate the reaction kinetics of gelling and blowing in polyurethane foam formation, avoid foam defects such as collapse and uneven pores caused by unbalanced reactions, and ensure the structural stability of foam products.
  2. Excellent blowing efficiency : Effectively promote the blowing reaction process, and the prepared polyurethane foam has a delicate and superior hand feel, improving the product quality of foam.
  3. Strong formulation adaptability : It can be applied to two types of core formulations with/without auxiliary blowing agents, reducing the cost of catalyst replacement and formula adjustment for manufacturers.

IV. Storage and Transportation Guidelines

To ensure the stable catalytic performance of QHA-A230 and avoid performance changes affecting the use effect, the following storage and transportation requirements must be strictly followed:

  1. Storage environment : Store in a dry, cool and well-ventilated area, with the optimum storage temperature of 10°C - 30°C; avoid storing at excessively high or low temperatures, which will damage the catalytic balance of the product.
  2. Container management : Each packaging drum must be tightly closed for storage, regularly check the integrity of the sealing, and prevent moisture intrusion and external contamination, which will lead to the decline of product performance.
  3. Transportation protection : Handle with care during loading and unloading to avoid collision and damage to the packaging drum; take corresponding sealing and protection measures during transportation to prevent the product from being polluted by moisture and impurities in the external environment.
