In
poly-urethane foam production, organo-tin structures provide
catalytic effects, particularly to the Isocyanate –
Hydroxyl reaction. Organo-tins therefore are used next
to tertiary amines in many foam reactions. This product
is meant for use in semi-rigid foams where good cross-linking
is required. In Silicone-elastomers, organo-tins are used
to catalyse the curing of polysiloxanes.
This
product can be applied concentrated, diluted with solvents
or together with netting agents (tetra-alkoxysilanes)
to the RTV (room temperature vulcanizing) Silicones. Because
this product is extremely compatible with tetra-alkoxy-silanes,
it is possible to produce stable catalyst/netting agent
blends.
