Addocat® PP: Plastic Additives / PUR Additives

Technical Data Sheet
Addocat® PP
Plastic Additives / PUR Additives
Description
®
Addocat PP is a catalyst for the production of PUR foams, e. g. flexible ester slabstock foam, hot molded foam,
filling foam, rigid foam as well as other PUR applications, e. g. paints and coatings.
Chemical composition
Blend of tertiary amines.
Typical properties
Active ingredient content: min. 98.0 %

Appearance: colorless to slightly yellowish, clear liquid
Basic nitrogen content: min. 24 %
Density at 20 °C: approx. 0.87 g/cm³
Flash point: approx. 83 °C
Initial boiling point: approx. 210 °C
Pour point: approx. - 60 °C
Solubility: miscible with water, hygroscopic; soluble in aromatic hydrocarbons,
esters, ketones and ethers; partly soluble in aliphatic hydrocarbons
Viscosity at 25 °C: approx. 3 mPa·s
Water content: max. 0.5 %
Application notes
Flexible ester slabstock foam:

® ®
Addocat PP activates the blowing and the crosslinking reaction of flexible PUR ester foam systems. Addocat PP
®
(0.1 - 0.4 parts by weight on 100 parts by weight polyol) is generally used together with Addocat 101 (1.0 - 1.6
parts by weight) in systems foamed mainly with TDI 80/20.
Ether filling foam:

Edition: 14. Feb 2017
®
In this case Addocat PP is particularly suitable for filling foams (density < 60 kg/m³) based on an active
®
trifunctional longchain polyether polyols and MDI. The Addocat PP (approx. 0.5 parts by weight) should always
be supplemented by an alkanolamine (e. g. triethanolamine at approx. 5.0 parts by weight).
Rigid foam:
®
Addocat PP activates the blowing and the crosslinking reaction of rigid foam systems. Dosage: 1.0 - 3.0 parts by
® ®
weight Addocat PP on 100 parts by weight polyether polyol. For cavity filling a co-catalyst, such as Addocat PV
® ®
or Addocat 108 (approx. 0.1 - 0.3 parts by weight) is often used in addition to Addocat PP. For panels, however,
® ®
it is better to use a co-catalyst like Addocat 102 (0.5 - 1.0 parts by weight) in addition to Addocat PP.
Applications:
- Cold/heat insulation of refrigerators and piping.
- Production of building boards (sandwich panels).
Cellular Vulkollan, cellular elastomers:

®
When processing cellular Vulkollan, Addocat PP is added to the crosslinker mixture. This crosslinker mixture
® ® ®
mainly comprises of Vulkollan 2001 KS (10.0 parts by weight), Addovate SM (2.15 parts by weight), Addovate
®
DD 1092 (0.215 parts by weight) and Addocat PP (0.0215 parts by weight).
Coatings:
®
Addocat PP accelerates the drying and curing of 2K PUR coatings based on aliphatic diisocyanates such as e. g.
® ® ® ®
Desmodur N-types or Desmodur Z 4470 and polyols of the Desmophen series. The addition of Addocat PP
®
reduces the potlife of the finish. To give greater convenience and accuracy of dosage, Addocat PP should be
used as a 10 % solution in solvents such as butyl acetate, ethyl acetate, methylisobutylketone, methylethylketone
®
or xylene. The added quantity of Addocat PP is approx. 0.02 to 0.50 % per total amount of Polyisocyanate /
Polyol. The optimum dosage should be determined by trials.
Storage stability
® ®
Addocat PP is to be stored in a cool and dry place. When Addocat PP is stored in firmly closed original
containers at dry conditions at approx. 15 to 25 °C, a shelf-life of 24 months from manufacturing date can be
expected. When storing the product for long periods, especially at temperatures above 30 °C, discoloration may
occur even in closed original containers. This does not have a negative impact on catalytic activity. The contents
have to be thoroughly homogenized before use. The containers should be resealed tightly after use to prevent
contamination by impurities and exposure to moisture.
