\nModifier<\/td>\n | Control the reaction rate to avoid problems that are too fast or too slow<\/td>\n | Foaming process<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n Taking the dispersant as an example, the dispersant in LE-15 can significantly improve the dispersed state of the catalyst particles in the polyol matrix, thereby ensuring uniformity of the reaction system. This is especially important for the production of high-quality polyurethane foams, as uneven dispersion can lead to inconsistent foam density and even hole defects. <\/p>\n 3. Special additives – “secret weapon” for odor control<\/h4>\nThe reason why LE-15 is called a “low odor” catalyst is closely related to its unique odor control additives. These additives effectively capture and neutralize volatile organic compounds (VOCs) that may be generated during the reaction through two mechanisms: physical adsorption and chemical passivation. For example, certain additives can immobilize free amine substances in the reaction system by forming stable complexes, thereby preventing them from escaping into the air. <\/p>\n It is worth mentioning that the odor control technology of LE-15 does not simply mask the odor, but fundamentally reduces the generation of odor sources. This design not only improves the comfort of the production environment, but also clears obstacles for the application of polyurethane products in sensitive fields (such as automotive interiors, medical equipment, etc.). <\/p>\n Comparative analysis of LE-15 catalyst and other catalysts<\/h3>\nIn the field of polyurethane production, the selection of catalysts directly affects the quality and production efficiency of the product. As an emerging environmentally friendly catalyst, LE-15 has shown many significant advantages compared with traditional amine and tin catalysts. To better understand these differences, we conducted detailed comparative analysis from multiple dimensions. <\/p>\n 1. Odor emission comparison<\/h4>\n\n\nCatalytic Type<\/th>\n | Odor intensity level (1-10)<\/th>\n | VOCs emissions (mg\/m\u00b3)<\/th>\n | Production Environment Impact<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n | \n\nTraditional amine catalysts<\/td>\n | 8-9<\/td>\n | 200-300<\/td>\n | Strongly irritating odors affect workers’ health<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | \nTraditional tin catalyst<\/td>\n | 6-7<\/td>\n | 150-250<\/td>\n | Lower odor, but protective measures are still needed<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | \nLE-15 Catalyst<\/td>\n | 1-2<\/td>\n | <50<\/td>\n | Almost odorless, environmentally friendly<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n It can be seen from the table that the odor intensity of LE-15 catalyst is much lower than that of traditional catalysts, and its VOCs emissions are significantly reduced. This low odor property not only improves the production environment, but also makes polyurethane products easier to pass strict environmental standards certification. <\/p>\n 2. Comparison of environmental performance<\/h4>\nThe environmental advantages of LE-15 catalysts are not only reflected in odor control, but also in their overall impact on the environment. Some components in traditional amine catalysts may be toxic to aquatic organisms, while tin catalysts involve heavy metal contamination. In contrast, the organometallic compounds used by LE-15 are fully compliant with the requirements of the EU REACH regulations and RoHS directives, and are a true green catalyst. <\/p>\n 3. Reaction efficiency and product performance<\/h4>\n\n\nParameter indicator<\/th>\n | Traditional amine catalysts<\/th>\n | Traditional tin catalyst<\/th>\n | LE-15 Catalyst<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n | \n\nInitial reaction rate (min\u207b\u00b9)<\/td>\n | 0.5-0.8<\/td>\n | 0.6-0.9<\/td>\n | 0.7-1.0<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | \nFinally hardness of product (Shore A)<\/td>\n | 40-50<\/td>\n | 50-60<\/td>\n | 55-70<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | \nFoot Cell Rate (%)<\/td>\n | 85-90<\/td>\n | 90-95<\/td>\n | >95<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n The data show that LE-15 catalyst not only outperforms traditional catalysts in reaction efficiency, but also significantly improves the physical performance of the product. For example, in foam products, LE-15 can achieve higher closed cell ratios, thereby enhancing the thermal insulation properties and mechanical strength of the product. <\/p>\n 4. Cost-benefit analysis<\/h4>\nAlthough the unit price of LE-15 catalysts may be slightly higher than that of traditional catalysts, its advantages are still obvious from the perspective of overall cost. Because LE-15 is usedSmaller amounts and no additional exhaust gas treatment devices are required, and long-term use can save companies a lot of money. In addition, with the increasing strictness of environmental protection regulations, the use of LE-15 can also help companies avoid potential fine risks and further enhance market competitiveness. <\/p>\n Comprehensive the above analysis, LE-15 catalyst has shown overwhelming advantages in terms of environmental performance, reaction efficiency and economics. These characteristics make it the preferred catalyst for future polyurethane production. <\/p>\n Specific application of LE-15 catalyst in polyurethane production<\/h2>\nLE-15 catalyst has been widely used in many fields of polyurethane production due to its unique chemical characteristics and excellent properties.
