VORASURF™ DC 5986 Additive
VORASURF™ DC 5986 is a medium-efficiency silicone surfactant designed for flexible polyurethane slabstock foam formulations. It is compatible with a wide range of foam systems, including those using alternate blowing agents like liquid carbon dioxide and acetone. This surfactant is particularly effective in providing high cell opening and efficient utilization of flame-retardant additives in FR-grade foams, making it suitable for conventional box foam and viscoelastic foams.
