1. General Description
The LC-5000 rigid PU foam is designed for making wood imitation furniture and decorations. Apart from isocyanate, this two component polyurethane foam system also consists of system polyol. Formula of system polyol covers polyether polyol, blowing agent, silicone surfactant, catalyst, and additives. Upon request, flame retardant can be added.
2. Product Performance
This polyurethane foam system has good flowabiltiy and short demoulding time. The PU foam product comes with the features such as uniform fine cells, high surface hardness, and smooth surface. Its density is adjustable among 120-1000kg/m³. In a word, the PU foam product performance reaches the international advanced level.
Especially, wood imitation product made of LC-5000 rigid PU foam holds the advantages such as high strength, good toughness, simple forming technology, etc. Its strength is higher than that of natural wood, while its density is lower than the natural wood’s. The density range is from 300~1000kg/m3. Consequently, it is an ideal substitute for wood.

4. Packing
New steel drums, IBC drums, in bulk or Isotank.
5. Handling
Avoid any contact with skin or eyes. When working with these chemicals, you must wear safety goggles, protective gloves, and overalls.
6. Storage
The materials are sensitive to humidity. Therefore, partially used drums should be tightly sealed to prevent moisture from getting inside.
a. Polyol Blend
When stored at the room temperature of 20-30℃, the Polyol blend has a shelf life of three to six months since the production date. It is recommended thoroughly mixed prior to use.
b. Isocyanate
When stored at the room temperature ranging from 20 to 30℃, the Isocyanate has one-year shelf life since the production date. Do not store it at the temperature of below 0℃, as some crystallization may occur. The storage temperature should not be above 50℃, for avoiding the possible formation of insoluble solids.
