Rokopol vTec8020

Rokopol vTec8020 can be used to produce viscoelastic polyurethane foams using a continuous system (slabstock) and periodic production (batch). Using Rokopol® vTec8020 and appropriately selected additives (catalysts, silicones, foaming agents) it is possible to produce blocks of viscoelastic foam with a rectangular cross-section and a height of up to 70 cm. Thanks to its excellent parameters, the product can be widely used in the furniture industry for the production of mattresses and pillows.

• possibility of producing foams with densities from 40 to 70 kg/m3 and hardness ranges from 1-3kPa,
• the use of the product allows the production of foam with a breaking strength above 80 kPa and a relative elongation at break above 60%,
• foam recovery time 1-10 s,
• slight impact of temperature changes in the range of 5-40°C on foam hardness,
• increase in hardness at 5°C below 50% compared to hardness at 23°C,
• possibility of producing foams with an open or closed cell structure,
• excellent permanent deformation parameters enabling high foam compression during transport.

The most common applications of Rokopol® vTec8020:

• production of viscoelastic polyurethane foams,
• polyol used in the furniture industry to produce mattresses and pillows with an increased comfort factor,
• used for the production of gel, viscoelastic and elastic foams.

Products manufactured on the basis of Rokopol® vTec8020 are characterized by very high quality. Thanks to the refined production process, this polyol is characterized by very good parameters and a wide range of applications.
