DMEA(dimethylethanolamine) is a tertiary amine
catalyst for the production of flexible |
polyurethane foam.
¢ŗApplications |
|
DMEA is a widely used and well-known
and proven cost cutting catalyst in
the |
|
urethane foam industry. It effects especially
the acceleration of the blowing reaction and
is therefore well suited for producing PUR-foams
in a widely spread density range. |
|
|
For achieving the safest production
conditions DMEA in some formulation
is also being |
|
applied in combination with triethylene
diamine. |
|
|
The quantity to be applied depends
on the quantity of the blowing agent
in the formulations, |
|
resp. on the density wanted. DMEA is generally
used in the range of 0.15~0.3 parts per 100
parts of polyol. We do not advise the use
of DMEA together with commercial grade methylenechloride.
However, DMEA can be used with methylenechloride,
polyurethane grade(stabilized). |
