Toyocat TE tertiary amine catalyst Tosoh 

Overview:

Toyocat TE is a tertiary amine-based foaming catalyst that facilitates urea (water-isocyanate) reactions in a variety of hard and soft polyurethane foam applications. It is the industry standard foaming catalyst for soft foams and is used in TDI-based soft foam systems such as mattresses, seats and automobiles. It is also used in combination with trimer catalysts in PIR laminated paperboard formulations. Toyocat TE is also available in MDI, TDI/MDI, MDI High Resilience (HR) soft molding foams as well as self-crusting and microcellular systems. It has a shelf life of 36 months.

CAS No.

The CAS number for Toyocat TE is 110-18-9. This is a unique identifier for Toyocat TE that is used to track and identify it throughout the supply chain. CAS numbers are also used to search databases and other resources for information about Toyocat TE.

Leak treatment

Stop leaks as much as possible while ensuring safety. If a minor leak is found, treat it with sand or other absorbent material and place it in a clean, dry container for subsequent treatment. If a large amount of leakage occurs, the leaked material should be collected for subsequent treatment. Avoid material entering groundwater or surface water, because it is not easily degraded by biological matter. All collected leakage materials should be disposed of in accordance with the relevant regulations of the local environmental protection department.
