Description
Rokopol F3600 is a polyether polyol, glycerine-based block copolymer on ethylene oxide and propylene oxide. The product is in the form of a homogeneous, clear liquid. The product contains antioxidants (excluding BHT) and is characterized by high purity and low emission. It has a hydroxyl value at 25°C in the range of 45-50 mg KOH / g and has a dynamic viscosity in the range of 540-620 mPas. Rokopol F3600 can be used for the production of flexible polyurethane foams with a continuous type system (slabstock) or for periodic production (batch). With the use of Rokopol F3600 and appropriately selected additives (catalysts, silicones, foaming agents) it is possible to produce blocks of hardened flexible foam with a rectangular cross-section and a height of up to 130 cm. Thanks to its excellent parameters, the product can be widely used in the furniture industry for the production of mattresses and furniture. The main application advantages of Rokopol F3600: the possibility of producing foams with densities from 16 to 80 kg / m3 with a hardness of 1 – 5kPa and flexibility up to 50%, application of the product enables the production of foam with a tensile strength of over 60 kPa and an elongation at break up to 100%, the product can be used together with other polymeric polyols to optimize features such as foam hardness, openness and elongation at break, the polyol is characterized by high scorch resistance. The most common applications of Rokopol F3600: used for the production of flexible foams and conventional foams with various parameters, polyol used in the furniture industry for the production of mattresses and pillows, product used for the production of printing inks. Products manufactured on the basis of Rokopol F3600 are characterized by very high quality. Thanks to the refined production process, this polyol has excellent parameters and is widely used in the furniture industry.
