FAQ


Q1: What is the recommended dosage of PC 41 catalyst?

A1: The optimal dosage varies by formulation, typically 0.1-1.0% of the total resin weight. For formulations with high isocyanate index (>105-110), we recommend starting with 0.3-0.5% and adjusting based on foaming performance.


Q2: Is PC 41 compatible with water-based polyurethane systems?

A2: Yes, it is compatible with water-based and solvent-based polyurethane systems. However, we advise conducting compatibility tests with specific formulations to ensure optimal results, as water content may affect catalyst activity.


Q3: What safety precautions should be taken when handling PC 41?

A3: Wear protective gloves, goggles, and clothing to avoid direct contact with skin and eyes. Store away from oxidizing agents and heat sources. In case of contact, rinse thoroughly with water and seek medical attention if irritation persists.
