Influence of material temperature and environment temperature in polyurethane foaming

Influence of material temperature and environment temperature in polyurethane foaming

The formation of polyurethane foam is a chemical reaction process, which is controlled by the polymerization reaction and the foaming reaction, and temperature is a very important environmental factor affecting the chemical reaction rate. Therefore, only within a defined temperature range can a reasonable catalyst amount be determined, a suitable formulation and the corresponding process parameters can be determined.
