Wyandotte, Michigan - BASF Polyurethanes is launching its Lupranate 280 Isocyanate for MDI-based foam at the 2009 CPI Polyurethane Technical Conference at the Gaylord National Hotel and Convention Center at National Harbour, Maryland, on 5-8 Oct 2009, the company said 30 Sept.
"Lupranate 280 Isocyanate is unique because it provides the manufacturer a high-quality foam that passes California Technical Bulletin117 without the addition of separate flame retardants," said John Maloney, business manager at BASF Polyurethanes. He added that Lupranate 280 is "significantly slower" to discolour than foams with added fire retardants. (RD)
