VORASURF™ DC 5951 Additive
VORASURF™ DC 5951 is a silicone surfactant designed for use in flexible polyurethane foam systems, particularly those utilizing high ethylene oxide, rich polyol (cell opener) systems, and alternate blowing agent foams. It is well-suited for low- to medium-density foams, offering high-efficiency surfactant performance across a variety of formulations. This additive is particularly effective in MDI viscoelastic foam and high ethylene oxide rich polyol-based MDI/TDI systems, also known as supersoft systems.
