MXC-C15 Chemical Characteristics

Molecular Architecture & Zero-Emission Design

Chemical structure of MXC-C15 (CAS 6711-48-4), a low-odor reactive amine catalyst for polyurethane systems
Molecular structure of Ming Xu Chem’s MXC-C15 (CAS 6711-48-4), an efficient reactive amine catalyst for low-emission foams.

The fundamental structure of MXC-C15 is engineered to eliminate catalyst migration and meet modern environmental regulations:

  • Polymer-Bound Active Hydrogen: Unlike traditional fugitive amines, it features a highly reactive secondary amine group that chemically bonds directly into the polyurethane polymer matrix, ensuring permanent retention.

  • Strict Odor & VOC Control: By locking the catalyst strictly inside the final foam network, it eliminates amine outgassing, helping your automotive and furniture products comply with stringent indoor air quality (VIAQ) and low-emission standards.

 

Flexible Molding & Advanced Surface Cure

MXC-C15 is a highly effective potassium-based trimerization catalyst for rigid PU and PIR foams.

For formulation engineers, MXC-C15 resolves critical processing defects in both flexible and rigid production lines:

  • Superior Skin Curing: It specifically accelerates the curing process at the foam surface, drastically reducing skinning defects and improving the final aesthetic finish of flexible molded parts.

  • Balanced Catalytic Selectivity: It exhibits a slight but precise selectivity toward the urea (isocyanate-water) blowing reaction, synchronizing foam expansion without compromising the overall gelling process.

  • Smooth Rigid Foam Profile: When utilized in PUR and PIR rigid foam systems, it provides a highly controlled and smooth reaction profile, preventing sudden exotherms and ensuring structural uniformity.

 

Process Efficiency & Operational Safety

We prioritize technical parameters that ensure seamless integration into your factory equipment and maintain batch-to-batch consistency:

  • High-Grade 98% Purity: A strict minimum purity of 98% guarantees predictable reaction kinetics, eliminating the risk of formulation instability caused by unwanted impurities.

  • Optimal Liquid Dynamics: As a clear, water-soluble liquid with an ultra-low viscosity of 3-5 mPa·s, it blends effortlessly into polyol premixes without phase separation, ensuring highly accurate machine dosing.

  • Enhanced Thermal Security: Featuring a flash point of 88°C and strictly controlled water content (max. 0.5%), it offers safe handling and excellent storage stability during intense industrial operations.
