- Application Information
- PUR ester flexible slabstock foam:
- In the production of PUR ester flexible slabstock foam Addovate® TX is used as an emulsifier. Addovate® TX is usually used in combination with Addovate® EM. With a combination of Addovate® TX / Addovate® EM good foaming control resulting in fine cell structure can be achieved.
- The recommended amount is between 1.0 and 3.0 parts by weight Addovate® TX to 100 parts by weight polyester polyol. The following sequence of adding the individual components has proven effective when manufacturing the activator batch: water, catalyst(s), Addovate® EM, Addovate® TX. A clear, homogeneous mixture is produced.
- Warning
- When mixing with other emulsifiers or additives, it is advisable to carry out laboratory tests for compatibility, as incompatibilities may cause defects in the cellular structure.

Storage & Handling
- Storage and Shelf Life Information
- Addovate® TX is to be stored in a cool and dry place.
- When Addovate® TX is stored in firmly closed original containers at 10 to 25°C, a shelf-life of 12 months from manufacturing date can be expected.
- Exposure to higher temperatures should be avoided, particularly over long periods of time.
- In the colder season of the year it may occur that Addovate® TX becomes fully or partly crystalline during transport.
- In this case Addovate® TX should be stored at a temperature between 20 - 25°C where it will become liquid within 1 - 2 weeks.
- The contents have to be thoroughly homogenized before use.
- Addovate® TX is mildly hygroscopic.
- To prevent it from adsorbing water from the atmosphere, the container should always be resealed tightly after use.
