China YIHOO PU Foaming Additives - Leading Suppliers & Factory for Polyurethane Foam Solutions
Product Description
Foam plastic is one of the main varieties of polyurethane synthetic materials, with the characteristic of porosity, so its relative density is small, and its specific strength is high. According to the different raw materials and formula, it can be made into soft, semi-rigid and rigid polyurethane foam plastic etc.
PU foam is widely used, almost infiltrating into all sectors of the national economy, especially in furniture, bedding, transportation, refrigeration, construction, insulation and many other applications.
Polyurethane foam is mainly applied to furniture, bedding and household products, such as sofas and seats, backrest cushions, mattresses and pillows.
In actual production and use, these products often have to undergo high requirements of yellowing resistance and flame retardant. The company provides a variety of additives can effectively help improve product performance.

It can help to pass California 117 standard, FMVSS302 standard of automobile sponge, British standard 5852 Crib 5 and other flame retardant test standards. FR950 is the ideal flame retardant to replace TDCPP (carcinogenicity) and V-6 (containing carcinogen TCEP). |
❓ Frequently Asked Questions
Q
What is polyurethane (PU) foam and what are its main characteristics?
Polyurethane foam is one of the main varieties of polyurethane synthetic materials. It features a porous structure, giving it a low relative density and high specific strength. Depending on the raw materials and formula used, it can be produced in soft, semi-rigid, and rigid forms to suit different application needs.
Q
What industries and applications is PU foam commonly used in?
PU foam is widely used across nearly all sectors of the national economy. Key application areas include furniture and bedding (sofas, mattresses, pillows, seat cushions), transportation, refrigeration, construction insulation, and many more industrial and consumer product sectors.
Q
What types of PU foaming additives does the company offer?
The company offers a comprehensive range of PU foaming additives, including UV absorbers (YIHOO UV1, YIHOO UV571, YIHOO UV B75), antioxidants (YIHOO AN333, YIHOO AN340), and flame retardants (YIHOO FR950). These additives are designed to improve yellowing resistance, aging resistance, and flame retardancy of PU foam products.
Q
What flame retardant standards can YIHOO FR950 help products meet?
YIHOO FR950 is a chlorinated phosphate ester flame retardant specially designed for PU foam. It can help products pass the California 117 standard, the FMVSS302 automotive sponge standard, and the British Standard 5852 Crib 5, among other flame retardant test standards. It is also a safer alternative to TDCPP and V-6, both of which contain known carcinogens.
Q
Are the antioxidants offered phenol-free, and why does that matter?
Yes, both YIHOO AN333 and YIHOO AN340 are phenol-free antioxidants. Phenol-free formulations are preferred in many applications because they improve the color and transparency of end products such as PVC, and reduce health and environmental concerns associated with phenolic compounds. They are effective in PVC, ABS, SBR, CR, rubber, and PU materials.
Q
Does the company supply additives for applications beyond PU foam?
Yes. In addition to PU foaming additives, the company offers a broad product series covering PA polymerization & modification additives, PVC polymerization & modification additives, PC additives, TPU elastomer additives, low VOC automotive trim additives, textile finishing agents, coating additives, cosmetics additives, API, and other specialty chemicals such as zeolite.
