Puranol LV 8000 Polyether polyols

Puranol LV 8000 is a low-viscosity polyether polyol from BASF’s Puranol LV series, engineered for flexible slabstock and molded foam applications. Featuring low odor, excellent reactivity, and consistent hydroxyl value (~56 mg KOH/g), it enables high-efficiency processing and superior foam resilience. Widely used in automotive seating and furniture foams requiring fast demolding and dimensional stability.

Features Of Puranol LV 8000 Polyether polyols

  1. Low-viscosity liquid polyol enabling excellent processability in high-speed foam and elastomer manufacturing.

  2. Highly consistent molecular weight distribution for reproducible reactivity and foam cell structure.

  3. Optimized for compatibility with aromatic isocyanates (e.g., MDI), supporting stable cream-to-gel transitions.

  4. Low monool content minimizes chain termination, enhancing crosslink density and final product resilience.

  5. Hydrolytically stable ether backbone ensures long-term storage stability and resistance to moisture-induced degradation.

Typical Applications Of Puranol LV 8000 Polyether polyols

  1. Flexible slabstock polyurethane foams for bedding and upholstered furniture.

  2. High-resilience (HR) molded foams used in automotive seating and premium cushioning.

  3. Microporous elastomers for gaskets, seals, and vibration-damping components.

  4. Reaction injection molding (RIM) systems requiring rapid demold and dimensional stability.

  5. Coating and adhesive formulations where low viscosity aids wetting and film uniformity.
