Applications

While DABCO® T 120 is recommended for general use as a rigid foam catalyst, it has been found to be particularly useful in high humidity and oxidizing environments or where improved master batch stability is necessary.; In high-resiliency formulations, it imparts improved load-bearing properties, breathability and low compression set. Additionally, it exhibits low humid age load loss characteristics.; It has also shown utility as a catalyst for shoe sole formulations.; DABCO® T 120 is not compatible with bismuth catalysts.

Key Performance Benefits
