Pluracol® Polyols
Pluracel™ foam made from Pluracol® materials, is slab formulation technology that produces variable recovery rate urethane flexible foam. This material is designed to reduce pressure and cradle the body to provide superior comfort qualities. Pluracel™ foam can be easily varied to provide property and “feel” characteristics to meet a wide range of applications. Foam buns cure quickly and do not need crushing. Pluracel™ foam helps make more comfortable, more luxurious cushioning.™
BASF utilizes Dynamic Mechanical Analysis to target the properties and features of Pluracel™ foam. With this tool, Pluracel™ foam formulations can be adjusted to move the glass transition temperature, and target a specific temperature range for visco-elasticity. Also, we analyze the height and breadth of the curve as a
means of targeting recovery rates and pressure relief qualities. Pluracel™ foam represents state-of-the-art slow recovery foam technology targeted at the luxury bedding and specialty cushioning segments. BASF helps make the processing easier and helps correctly target properties in the manufacture of visco-elastic foams. BASF makes slow recovery foams better.
