Product description
Ultracel 3000 (U-3000) is a stable 10% SAN-solids dispersion in a high molecular weight reactive base polyol.
Applications
Ultracel 3000 (U-3000) is a stable 10% SAN-solids dispersion in a high molecular weight reactive base polyol. It is used in the production of high support (HS) and high resilience (HR) flexible slabstock foam having excellent comfort and durability and good physical properties. The primary applications are in premium quality furniture and mattresses. Ultracel 3000 produces very stable, yet shrink resistant, HS-HR foam that is easy to crush. It can be processed over a wide range of water levels and isocyanate indexes and in combination with varying amounts of high solids polymer polyols such as Arcol® HS-200 or Hyperlite® E-855. This provides unsurpassed flexibility for producing a wide range of foam grades of excellent quality. It can also be formulated with various foam modifiers, FRs, softening agents, and other additives to yield foams with unique performance features for specialized applications (supersoft cushion wrap, latex replacement, CMHR, etc.). As with any product, use of Ultracel 3000 in a given application must be tested (including but not limited to field testing) in advance by the user to determine suitability.

Storage
Ultracel 3000 is slightly hygroscopic and may absorb water. Containers should be kept tightly closed and protected from contamination with moisture and foreign materials, which can adversely affect product quality. This polyol can become quite viscous at low temperatures. For ease of handling, storage temperatures between 20°C (68°F) and 60°C (140°F) are recommended. The shelf life is twelve months after receipt of material by customer, when stored in sealed original containers under conditions stated above.
