Silicone Surfactant



  L-3002 lifts your molded foam operations to now levels of efficiency for applications
requiring additional stabilization. A new silicone designed especially for MDI and TDI/MDI HR molded foam applications, L-3002 takes L-3001 one step further to provide you with greater processing latitude. L-3002 accomplishes this through excellent foam stabilization while it simultaneously maintains desirable open celled foam. You also can rely on this highly efficient silicone to stabilize higher-water MDI formulations.

  With low force to crush and minimal shrinkage, L-3002 is the preferred silicone for
automotive and upholstered application.

  L-3002 will enhance and differentiate the performance of your molded foam product
with outstanding features that include:
¡Ý Superior efficiency for TDI/MDI and high-water MDI formulations
¡Ý Wide utility in formulations where additional stabilization is needed compared to L-3001
¡Ý Excellent foam openness, yielding low force-to-crush and low shrinkage

¢ºApplications
¡Ý Suggested use levels in this application range from 0.8 to 1.0 parts per hundred
polyol(php)
¡Ý In all MDI foams, L-3002 also is an effective stabilizer, particularly when higher
water levels are used to produce low-density parts
¡Ý Although use levels in this case will be between 0.4 and 1.0 php, the product
concentration that yields the best results will depend on the specific formulation
