Features Of SilGuard YK-2102 Polyurethane Surfactant

  1. High-efficiency silicone-polyether copolymer structure for superior foam stabilization in flexible polyurethane slabstock systems.

  2. Excellent compatibility with common polyols, isocyanates, and water-based blowing systems without phase separation.

  3. Low-volatility formulation ensures minimal odor and reduced VOC emissions during processing.

  4. Enables fine, uniform cell structure and improved dimensional stability in cured foam products.

  5. Stable performance across a broad processing temperature range (15–35 °C).

Typical Applications Of SilGuard YK-2102 Polyurethane Surfactant

  1. Flexible slabstock polyurethane foam for bedding and mattress cores.

  2. High-resilience (HR) foam used in automotive seating and premium furniture.

  3. Viscoelastic (memory) foam formulations requiring precise cell openness control.

  4. Water-blown or low-water-content flexible PU foam systems seeking reduced emissions.

  5. Continuous-belt foam production lines requiring consistent surfactant dispersion and metering stability.
