MXC-10 Chemical Characteristics

Molecular Architecture & Zero-Emission Design

Chemical structure of MXC-10 (C9H22N2O2, CAS 1704-62-7), a low-emission reactive blowing catalyst for polyurethane
Molecular structure of Ming Xu Chem’s MXC-10, an industry-leading reactive blowing catalyst for low-VOC foams.

The unique molecular structure of MXC-10 is specifically designed to eliminate the odor and emission problems associated with conventional blowing catalysts:

  • Polymer-Bound Reactive Hydroxyl: Unlike traditional catalysts that migrate out of the foam over time, its reactive hydroxyl group chemically bonds directly into the polyurethane polymer matrix, ensuring permanent retention.

  • Strict Odor & VOC Control: This permanent bonding mechanism prevents the emission of volatile organic compounds, making it an essential additive for automotive interiors (VIAQ compliance), premium bedding, and furniture.

 

Powerful Blowing Catalysis & Foam Expansion

MXC-10 is a versatile liquid amine catalyst designed to provide balanced reactivity in various PU systems.

For formulation engineers, MXC-10 offers exceptionally strong and highly controlled expansion capabilities:

  • Targeted Water-Isocyanate Reaction: It acts as a powerful blowing catalyst, specifically accelerating the reaction between water and isocyanate to generate $CO_2$ gas with high efficiency.

  • Optimized Density Reduction: Even at very low dosage levels, it promotes rapid, uniform foam expansion, allowing factories to effectively lower the foam density and reduce overall material costs.

  • Versatile Foam Applications: While ideal for polyether flexible slabstock and molded foams, it is also highly effective in semi-flexible and rigid packaging foams that require rapid rise profiles.

 

Process Efficiency & Operational Safety

We prioritize liquid parameters that seamlessly integrate into automated production lines while protecting factory personnel:

  • Complete Water Solubility: As a low-viscosity, water-soluble liquid, it blends effortlessly into the B-side (polyol premix) without phase separation, ensuring highly accurate machine metering.

  • High-Thermal Safety: Featuring a high flash point of 118°C and a boiling point of 263°C, it dramatically reduces the risk of factory fires compared to highly volatile, low-boiling alternative amines.

  • Formulation Synergy: It offers a broad processing latitude and blends flawlessly with other gelling catalysts, allowing technicians to perfectly fine-tune the balance between blowing and gelation reactions.
