CHEMICALS FOR POLYURETHANE AND FOAMS

Intercroma works with the leading raw materials for the Polyurethanes (PU), foam and derivatives market, including TDI (Toluene Diisocyanate), Polyol, Methylene Chloride and Polyol Copolymer. These products supply various industries such as mattresses, pillows, upholstery, car seats, flexible and rigid foams, among others. They are imported from the world’s leading manufacturers and tested before shipment to the destination, thus guaranteeing the quality and consistency of the lots.

TDI

The most popular and used Isocyanate in the flexible foams industry is Toluene Diisocyanate (TDI), typically at a concentration of 80/20. TDI can also be used in the production of Isocyanates Catalysts used in the paint and varnish industry.

Polyol

The term Polyol encompasses a wide variety of compounds containing hydroxyl groups capable of reacting with the Isocyanates to form Polyurethanes (PU) groups. We work with Polyol of 3000 Molecular weight and are researching other types to also include in our portfolio.

Polyol Copolymer

It is used in the manufacturing of flexible foams and may be used alone or in combination with Polyol. The chemical allows the manufacture of foams that support heavy loads.

Methylene Chloride

Methylene Chloride (Dichloromethane) is used as an expansion agent for Polyurethane foams. Moreover, it can also be used as a paint remover, degreaser and aerosol propellant in the plastics industry. It can be found in two versions: technical grade or urethane grade. Our line carries the Technical Grade of Methylene Chloride.

Amine

Amines have the important function of catalyzing the expansion reaction of water with isocyanate. Intercroma offers the main countertypes available in the market for PU flexible foams.

Stannous Octoate

Stannous Octoate has the important function of acting in the reaction of Isocyanate polymerization with polyol. Intercroma's portfolio has the main stannous octoate countertypes in the market.

Silicon

Silicon plays an important role in the formulation of foams. They are classified as surfactants, with the function of altering the surface and interfacial properties of a liquid. We have the main flexible foam countertypes in the market.
