1. Introduction

Sole materials are a crucial part of footwear products, and their performance directly affects the comfort, durability and safety of the shoe. With the continuous increase in consumers’ requirements for footwear products, the flexibility of sole materials has become an important research direction. As a new catalyst, the low viscosity odorless amine catalyst Z-130 has shown significant results in improving the flexibility of sole materials. This article will discuss in detail the characteristics, mechanism of action and its effects in practical applications.

2. Flexibility requirements for sole materials

The flexibility of sole material refers to the ability of the material to deform and not easily break when subjected to stress. Good flexibility can not only improve the comfort of the shoes, but also extend the service life of the shoes. The following are the main requirements for flexibility of sole materials:

Comfort: The sole with good flexibility can better adapt to foot movement and reduce fatigue.
Durability: Materials with strong flexibility are not prone to cracking or breaking after repeated stress.
Safety: Good flexible soles on slippery or uneven groundIt can provide better grip and reduce the risk of slipping.

4. Mechanism of action of Z-130 in sole materials

Principle of catalytic reaction

Z-130 reacts with the isocyanate groups in the polyurethane prepolymer to form a stable intermediate, thereby accelerating the progress of the polymerization reaction. Its low viscosity properties allow the catalyst to be evenly dispersed in the material, ensuring uniformity and consistency of the reaction.

Influence on material flexibility

The catalytic action of Z-130 not only accelerates the polymerization reaction, but also significantly improves the flexibility of the material by regulating the structure and crosslinking density of the molecular chain. Specifically, the Z-130 can:

Reduce crosslinking density: By controlling the reaction rate, Z-130 can reduce crosslinking points in the material, thereby increasing the mobility of the molecular chain and improving the flexibility of the material.
Optimize molecular chain structure:Z-130 can promote linear growth of molecular chains, reduce the formation of branched and crosslinked structures, and make the material softer and more elastic.
