Why is minimizing amine emissions important?
Amine catalysts used in the manufacture of polyurethane foams are among the volatile organic compounds released after the foam is subjected to heat. New VORANOL VORACTIV polyols from Dow will help reduce odors associated with these amine emissions. Amine emissions are also believed to contribute to windshield-fogging, discoloration of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and degradation of polycarbonate components, which can lead to customer dissatisfaction and product returns.
