POLYCAT® 8 is a tertiary amine catalyst used in a wide range of rigid polyurethane foam applications. It serves as a standard catalyst for a broad range of rigid foams, including continuous and discontinuous applications such as rigid slabstock, board laminate, and refrigeration formulations. POLYCAT® 8 can be batched with polyols or metered separately. Due to their low water solubility, pre-blends containing high water levels must be checked for phase stability.

POLYCAT® DBU is a powerful gel catalyst that offers excellent curing properties at high temperatures, specifically for artificial turf applications. It is a tertiary amine known as diazobicycloundecene (DBU), which greatly enhances the urethane reaction (polyol-isocyanate) in various applications such as semi-flexible microcellular foam, coatings, adhesives, sealants, and elastomers.

POLYCAT® SA 2 LE is a low-emissive, delayed-action tertiary amine based on DBU. It effectively enhances the urethane reaction when heat is applied, making it suitable for microcellular, integral skin, coating, adhesive, sealant, and elastomer applications. This product is especially recommended for use with low-activity aliphatic isocyanates.

POLYCAT® SA 8 is a tertiary amine utilized to enhance the urethane reaction either through heat activation or when combined with co-catalysts at ambient temperature. This product finds application in coatings, adhesives, sealants, elastomers, and composites. By using formulations containing POLYCAT® SA 8, it is possible to achieve an extended pot life comparable to that of mercury catalysts.

DABCO® 33 LV is the industry standard tertiary amine catalyst used to promote the gel (polyol-isocyanate) reaction in the production of flexible and rigid foam, as well as CASE applications. It provides strong gel catalysis with high efficiency and serves as a versatile amine catalyst for various foam types.
