Reaction injection molding (RIM), abbreviated as RIM, is a process technology that directly manufactures complex parts through rapid reaction from low-viscosity, highly reactive raw materials.
RIM material polyurethane is widely used in automobiles, construction, furniture, entertainment, sports and other fields due to its excellent physical and mechanical properties, with various uses.
1. Polyether polyol:
Highly active polyether polyol, amino-terminated polyether (polyetheramine)
2. Isocyanate
Carbodiimide-modified MDI, urethane-modified MDI, polymeric MDI (PAPI), mixtures of PAPI and modified MDI
3.Chain extenders and cross-linking agents
Glycol chain extender: ethylene glycol, diethylene glycol (diethylene glycol), 1,4-butanediol, etc.
Alcoholamine chain extenders: triethanolamine, diethanolamine;
