Features Of Borchers Borchi Kat 22 Bismuth Catalyst

  1. Non-toxic, heavy-metal-free bismuth-based alternative to traditional tin and lead catalysts.

  2. Highly selective for urethane formation with minimal side reactions (e.g., trimerization or allophanate formation).

  3. Excellent storage stability under ambient conditions—no special handling or inert atmosphere required.

  4. Compatible with a broad range of polyols, isocyanates, and formulation additives including water-blown systems.

  5. Enables low-VOC and regulatory-compliant formulations meeting REACH, RoHS, and EPA Safer Choice criteria.

Typical Applications Of Borchers Borchi Kat 22 Bismuth Catalyst

  1. Flexible and rigid polyurethane foams for automotive seating, insulation, and packaging.

  2. Coatings and adhesives requiring fast demold times and low fogging performance.

  3. Cast elastomers and reaction injection molding (RIM) systems demanding precise reactivity control.

  4. One-component moisture-curing polyurethane sealants and caulks.

  5. Biobased polyol formulations where metal compatibility and hydrolytic stability are critical.
