Features Of Puranol LV 5000 Polyether polyols

  1. Low-viscosity liquid polyol enabling excellent processability and ease of handling in high-speed manufacturing environments.

  2. Highly consistent molecular weight distribution ensures reproducible foam structure and mechanical performance.

  3. Optimized for compatibility with common isocyanates (e.g., MDI and TDI), supporting stable cream time and rise profile in flexible foam systems.

  4. Low monool content minimizes chain termination, enhancing crosslink density and long-term foam resilience.

  5. Hydrolytically stable ether backbone provides superior resistance to moisture-induced degradation during storage and processing.

Typical Applications Of Puranol LV 5000 Polyether polyols

  1. Flexible molded polyurethane foams for automotive seating and interior trim.

  2. Slabstock flexible foams used in bedding and upholstered furniture.

  3. High-resiliency (HR) foams requiring balanced comfort, support, and durability.

  4. Viscoelastic foam blends where low initial viscosity improves mixing efficiency and cell uniformity.

  5. Industrial cushioning and packaging foams demanding dimensional stability and compression set resistance.
