CARPOL® GP-5171-60

CARPOL® GP-5171-60 Polyol is a glycerin-initiated polyether polyol. The resulting material has a nominal functionality of three and an average molecular weight of 5000 Da. This triol is polymerized with propylene oxide and then capped with 71% ethylene oxide. The outcome is a polyol with enhanced reactivity. Main applications include flexible foam, however, CARPOL® GP-5171-60 Polyol may also be included as a component in other urethane products and applications.
