Application and Classification of Polyether Polyol

 Polyether polyol is mostly used to manufacture soft, hard and semi-rigid polyurethane foams. Polyether polyol  is not only easy to obtain raw materials with low cost, but also hold good properties of synthetic polyurethane foam.It is the polyol  raw material  with the largest dosage for polyurethane foam industry.

1. Polyether polyol for soft foam

Polyether polyol used for soft foam is generally long-chain polyether with low functionality. The functionality of polyether polyol in soft foam formula is generally 2 ~ 3, and the average molecular weight is between 2000 ~ 6500. Polyether triol is the most commonly used in soft foam. Generally, glycerin (glycerol) is used as RXH, which is obtained by ring-opening polymerization of 1, 2-propylene oxide or copolymerization of propylene oxide with a small amount of ethylene oxide. The molecular weight is generally in the range of 3000 ~ 7000. Glycerin are mainly used  soft foam with high resilience, and can also be used in foam products such as semi-hard foam. This kind of polyether has good miscibility with water and isocyanate, the reaction activity is suitable, and the foam process stability is greatly improved. In addition, the foam curing time is shortened, which also reduces the production cost.

2. Polyether polyol for hard form

Polyether polyol with high functionality and high hydroxyl value is commonly used in hard foam formulations,only in this way can a sufficient degree of cross-linking and rigidity be produced. The hydroxyl value of hard foam polyether polyol is generally 350 ~ 650mg KOH/g, and the average functionality is above 3.

3. Elastic non-foam polyurethane material

As for ordinary polyether polyol used in elastic non-foam, polyurethane polyether glycol and polyether triol with molecular weights ranging from 1000 to 3000 are most commonly used. In addition, sealant also uses the high molecular weight polyether triols and coatings also use polyether polyol with a molecular weight of several hundred.

Difference Between Sodium Laureth Sulfate And Sodium Lauryl Sulfate

Sodium laureth ether sulfate  (SLS) and sodium lauryl ether sulfate (SLES) are surfactants that play a role in foaming products. It is widely believed that the foam produced by a product is its performance. The composition of SLS and SLES reduces the surface tension of water. They can also be used as dispersants to properly mix spices and body spray. SLS and SLES can also be used in a variety of personal care products such as soap, shampoo, shower gel, toothpaste and other foaming products. SLS and SLES are also added to moisturizing lotions and sunscreens because of these properties. The difference between SLS and SLES is in the manufacturing process. SLS undergo a process called ethoxylation. And then you get SLES. Why do we have this ethoxylation process? Because SLS has some mild irritation on the skin, such as dry. The manufactured SLES are more gentle and do not irritate the skin. Many manufacturers do not use SLS because it is irritating. SLES should be softer o...

Difference Between Sulfate And Sulfonate In Shampoo

  Sulfates and sulfonates have two things in common. First, they're all anionic surfactants. Second, they are often used for personal care applications. But there are many differences. They have different molecular mechanisms. They have different functions and they have different raw materials.   Sulfates Sulfate is a compound. It has carbon bonds and oxygen and sulfur bonds. They include substances such as sodium lauryl sulfate and sodium lauryl ether sulfate.   At low pH, these substances plus the c-o-s bond hydrolyze to produce alcohol and inorganic sulfate. At a high pH, sulfate is stable in the base and, if ethoxylated to a relatively high level, produces a low-foaming alkali-soluble surfactant. Sulphates can be prepared by reaction of fatty alcohol or fatty alcohol ethoxylates with reagents such as SO3 or chlorosulfonic acid (CSA).   The reason shampoo becomes thick foam in the shower is that it contains sulfate. Most shampoos and household cleansers contain su...
