ADDOVATE® SM OPTIMIZED

Product Description

Addovate® SM optimized is a powerful ionic emulsifier and foam stabilizer for polyurethane systems. It is used in the production of PUR ester flexible slabstock foam, PUR rigid foam, and as a crosslinking agent in cellular hot-cast elastomers. By precisely controlling both the crosslinking and blowing reactions, Addovate® SM optimized ensures uniform cell structures, stable foam formation, and consistent processing results. The product offers excellent storage stability, easy handling, and outstanding compatibility with other Addovate® and Addocat® additives.
