The low VOC emission characteristics of ZR-70 make it an ideal choice for environmentally friendly polyurethane foam production. Compared with traditional amine catalysts, ZR-70 produces almost no harmful gases during production and complies with strict environmental protection regulations.
The efficient catalytic properties of ZR-70 significantly shorten the curing time of polyurethane foam and improve production efficiency. By optimizing the amount of catalyst and reaction conditions, the production cycle can be further shortened and the production cost can be reduced.
The application of ZR-70 in polyurethane foam can significantly improve the physical properties of the product, such as the density, elasticity, compressive strength of the foam, etc. In addition, the low odor characteristics of ZR-70 also improve the user experience of the product.
The low toxicity and low volatility of ZR-70 make it safer during use. Compared with traditional amine catalysts, ZR-70 has a smaller impact on operators’ health and reduces occupational health risks.
The amount of ZR-70 should be adjusted according to the specific polyurethane foam formula and production process. Generally, the recommended amount of ZR-70 is 0.1-0.5% based on the total weight of polyurethane foam.
| Foam Type | Recommended dosage (%) |
|---|---|
| Soft foam | 0.1-0.3 |
| Rough Foam | 0.2-0.5 |
| Semi-rigid foam | 0.15-0.4 |
ZR-70 should be well mixed with other raw materials to ensure its uniform dispersion in the polyurethane foam. It is recommended to add ZR-70 slowly under stirring conditions and continue to stir until completely mixed.
The catalytic effect of ZR-70 is affected by factors such as reaction temperature, humidity and pressure. It is recommended to use ZR-70 under the following conditions:
| Reaction Conditions | Recommended Value |
|---|---|
| Reaction temperature | 20-40°C |
| Relative Humidity | 40-60% |
| Reaction pressure | Normal pressure |
ZR-70 should be stored in a cool, dry and well-ventilated place to avoid direct sunlight and high temperatures. Severe vibrations and collisions should be avoided during transportation to prevent packaging from being damaged.
