Results for tag: "Polyurethane Catalysts"

Polyurethane catalysts are a key component in the production of polyurethanes. They are used to speed up the reaction between the polyol and isocyanate components of the polyurethane, allowing for the production of polyurethane products in a shorter amount of time. Catalysts can be either organic or inorganic, and are typically used in combination with other additives such as surfactants and emulsifiers. The type of catalyst used depends on the desired properties of the final product. The polyurethane catalysts market is driven by the increasing demand for polyurethane products in various industries such as automotive, construction, and furniture. The growing demand for energy-efficient and lightweight materials is also driving the market. The increasing use of polyurethane in medical applications is also expected to drive the market. Some of the major companies in the polyurethane catalysts market include BASF, Dow Chemical, Huntsman Corporation, Covestro, and Evonik Industries. Show Less Read more
