- ▸ Low-emission reactive blowing catalyst for flexible and molded polyurethane foam
- ▸ Automotive seating and interior foam where low fogging and low odor are required
- ▸ Slabstock and high-resilience polyether foam blow/gel balancing
- ▸ Semi-rigid foam systems needing built-in, non-fugitive amine catalysis
A grade-specific Safety Data Sheet (SDS) — with the complete hazard classification, handling precautions, and transport information — is supplied with every shipment and available on request. Confirm all safety and regulatory details against the SDS for your specific grade.
Request SDS →Reactive amine catalysts solve a specific problem: free tertiary amines volatilize out of cured foam, causing cabin odor, windshield fogging, and PVC staining in automotive interiors. Because this molecule carries a primary-hydroxyl group, it co-reacts with isocyanate and becomes chemically bound into the polymer, so amine emissions drop sharply versus a non-reactive equivalent. Formulators use it to tune the blow-versus-gel balance in slabstock, high-resilience, and molded polyether foams, usually alongside a dedicated gelling catalyst. The trade-off is mobility: an incorporable catalyst is less free to migrate and can shift the cure window, so loadings and co-catalyst ratios need adjustment rather than a one-for-one swap
