Polyol 15%

Polyol 15%

Polyol 15% (typically a polymer polyol or POP) is an industrial chemical widely used as a key reactive component in the manufacturing of polyurethane products.

It is primarily added to create, harden, and enhance the load-bearing capacity of flexible and semi-rigid polyurethane foams.

Polyol 15% (often called POP 15) is a polymer polyol with 15% solid content.

It is primarily used as a raw material in the polyurethane industry to manufacture flexible slabstock foams, improving load-bearing capacity, resilience, and hardness.

Core Industrial DetailsComposition: Contains 15% solids (typically styrene-acrylonitrile, or SAN) suspended in a polyether polyol base.
Polyol 15%

Key Function:

Replaces traditional inorganic fillers to increase foam hardness by up to 30% without sacrificing flexibility.
Applications: Ideal for high-resilience (HR) foams, mattresses, furniture, and semi-rigid polyurethane formulations.
Sourcing & PackagingSuppliers: Widely manufactured by industrial chemical producers and exported globally.
Packaging Formats: Available in 25kg and for bulk purchase in 210 kg drums, 1000 kg IBC totes, and large flexibags.

Key Performance Benefits

Enhanced Load-Bearing Capacity: Blending it with conventional polyols increases the hardness and load-bearing performance of the final polyurethane foam by more than 30%.
Stable Foam Structures: It ensures excellent cell opening and stable, non-shrinking free-rise foam distribution across large block productions.
Low Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC): Manufacturers like Qichen Chemical engineer these 15% variants to emit low VOCs, creating safer consumer products.
System Compatibility: It seamlessly integrates with standard industrial isocyanate chemical lines, including TDI, MDI, and TDI/MDI blended polymer
