Pentane Based Polyester Polyol For Home Appliances & Panels

XINFA Pentane-based polyester polyol products, including XF-435, XF-390,XF-360, XF-2402N, and XF-2020, exhibit excellent compatibility with alkane blowing agents through the incorporation of oily groups in their molecular structure and the selection of appropriate functionality. This results in foaming compounds with superior flow properties. The resulting polyurethane foam exhibits lower thermal conductivity and superior dimensional stability, making it widely used in the production of polyurethane insulation materials for home appliances, panels, pipes, and other applications.

Main Applications

1. Home Appliances Insulation

Used in:

Refrigerators

Freezers

Water heaters

Display cabinets

Vending machines


Key requirements:

Low thermal conductivity (low lambda value)

Fine and uniform cell structure

Good flowability in cabinet injection

Strong adhesion to metal/plastic liners

Cyclopentane compatibility and emulsion stability


Typical polyester polyol characteristics:

  • OH value: 200–320 mgKOH/g

  • Viscosity: 2,000–8,000 mPa·s

  • Aromatic polyester backbone for better insulation and fire performance


These systems are designed for pentane or HFO blowing agents and provide:

  • Good thermal insulation

  • Excellent adhesion

  • Short demolding time

  • Good mechanical properties

2. Sandwich Panels / PIR Panels

Used in:

Cold storage panels

Wall and roof panels

Continuous sandwich panel lines

Refrigerated truck panels


Important performance requirements:

High compressive strength

Flame retardancy

Dimensional stability

Stable pentane emulsification

Smooth panel surface

Fast curing for continuous production


Aromatic polyester polyols are preferred because their aromatic structure improves:

Fire resistance

Char formation

Mechanical strength

Thermal stability

    Common Raw Materials for Polyester Polyol Production

    Acid Components

    Phthalic anhydride (PA)

    Terephthalic acid (TPA)

    Recycled PET

    Adipic acid

    Glycol Components

    DEG (Diethylene glycol)

    MEG (Monoethylene glycol)

    MPG

    Glycerol

    Aromatic polyester polyols based on PA/DEG or recycled PET are especially common for PIR panels because they combine:

    Cost efficiency

    High aromaticity

    Excellent fire behavior

    Good pentane compatibility
