Desmodur® PUL 10PL01

Desmodur PUL 10PL01 is a liquid, dark brown mixture of diphenylmethan-4,4'-diisocyanat (MDI) with isomers and homologues of higher functionality. It is used in conjunction with polyetherpolyols and additives for the production of glass fiber reinforced profiles in the pultrusion process.

Moisture access must be prevented when taking product samples.

Drums should be protected against strong sunlight and always kept sealed to protect the contents from moisture or damp air.Recommended storage temperature: 10 - 30 °C (in exceptional cases up to 50 °C)Shelf life (ex works): 180 days if stored in sealed, moisture-tight containers

Desmodur PUL 10PL01 may undergo partial crystallization at temperatures below 0 °C. The product can, however, be brought back into the liquid state by heating the entire contents of the drum for a short time to a maximum of 70 °C, although this may lead to an increase in the solids content.Drums including empty ones should always be kept tightly sealed. The product should never be allowed to come into contact with water, which reacts with Desmodur 10PL01 to form polyureas and carbon dioxide. Contact with water in any form (damp drums, solvents containing water, moist air) must be prevented not only during storage, but also when removing material from drums and during processing. Failure to do so may lead to a dangerous build up of pressure in tanks and drums due to the generation of carbon dioxide. In addition, polyureas forming in Desmodur 10PL01 can cause solids to separate out, leading to blockages in the filters, pumps and pipelines of the processing equipment and resulting in production problems.
