For manufacturers in the polyurethane industry, a deep understanding of the technical specifications of raw materials is crucial for achieving optimal product performance. Polymeric MDI (PMDI) is a complex mixture of isocyanates, and its specific properties directly influence the characteristics of the final polyurethane product. NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD. offers insights into these critical technical parameters, emphasizing how they guide the successful production of foams and other materials.

A key parameter for any isocyanate is its Isocyanate content, often expressed as NCO content. For Polymeric MDI, this typically ranges from 30.5% to 32.0%. The NCO content indicates the proportion of reactive isocyanate groups available for reaction with polyols. A consistent and precise NCO content is vital for controlling the stoichiometry of the polyurethane reaction, which directly impacts the crosslinking density, cell structure, and overall physical properties of the resulting foam. Achieving accurate high resilience foam production with MDI often depends on precise NCO measurement and control.

Viscosity is another critical specification for Polymeric MDI, often measured at 25ºC. For PMDI, a typical range is between 150-250 mPas. Viscosity affects how easily the material can be processed, pumped, and mixed with polyols. Lower viscosity grades might be preferred for spray foam applications where good flowability is essential, while slightly higher viscosities could be beneficial for specific molding processes. The suitability of polyurethane raw material PM200 for various foam types is often dictated by its viscosity profile.

Density, typically measured at 25ºC, is also an important property, usually falling between 1.220-1.250 g/cm³. This value is important for calculating material usage, ensuring accurate mixing ratios, and predicting the final density of the polyurethane product. For applications requiring precise weight control, such as in lightweight automotive components or insulating panels, understanding the density of the isocyanate MDI for construction panels is fundamental.

The quality of Polymeric MDI is further defined by parameters like acidity and hydrolyzable chlorine content, which should be kept to a minimum (e.g., ≤0.030% and ≤0.20%, respectively) to prevent unwanted side reactions and ensure product stability. NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD. adheres to strict quality control measures to ensure these specifications are met, providing manufacturers with reliable materials for their demanding applications. Understanding these technical details is key to optimizing processes and achieving the desired outcomes when using polymeric MDI chemical auxiliary for polyurethane synthesis.
