TDI/soft foam polyether/bio-based polyether Wanhua won the Gujia Home Furnishing Award for its superior products

On April 3, Wanhua Chemical won the “Strategic Cooperation Supplier Award” from Gujiaju. The award is a high recognition of Wanhua Chemical’s research and development, production and service over the years, and will further promote the subsequent in-depth cooperation between the two companies.

Today, as the demand for functionalization in the home furnishing industry continues to upgrade, downstream applications such as high-end furniture products have higher requirements for sponge products. In order to pursue sponge products with finer cell structure and softer handle, Wanhua Chemical’s high-purity TDI provides these Apps offer better options. Wanhua Chemical has independently developed TDI product refining technology to effectively remove solvents, light and heavy components and trace impurities, which has greatly improved the quality of TDI products. The product purity has been improved and stabilized at 99.98%, reaching the industry-leading level. TDI with high purity and low hydrolyzed chlorine has better reaction efficiency with molecules containing active hydrogen compounds, fine sponge cells, and user comfort are significantly improved. At the same time, the improvement of reaction efficiency will help downstream customers improve production efficiency, reduce catalyst consumption, and help the home furnishing industry to reduce costs and improve efficiency, and industrial upgrading.

In order to meet the health and environmental protection needs of the home furnishing industry, Wanhua Chemical is committed to realizing the organic combination of product performance and environmental protection performance to the greatest extent from the raw material side. Through the self-developed production process and catalytic technology, not only the performance of soft foam polyether in terms of product fluidity and oxidation resistance has been improved, but also the foam structure is more regular and more resistant to yellowing. At the same time, the product has a high reaction conversion rate, few side reactions, extremely low aldehyde content, total aldehydes are less than 10ppm, and the foam smell reaches level 3.0, which protects consumers’ home life. Based on the industrial chain and paying attention to carbon reduction in the whole life cycle, Wanhua Chemical’s soft foam polyether products have achieved a high product conversion rate through process optimization and heat energy recovery. The generation of three wastes in the production process has been reduced by 80%, and the energy consumption has been reduced by 80%. Improve the environmental protection level of downstream products.

Develop green industries and circular economy, and promote the R&D and application of energy-saving and environmental protection technologies and products. Wanhua Chemical’s bio-based polyether products are derived from castor oil, with a bio-based content of more than 50%. Compared with conventional petroleum-based products, this product can reduce carbon footprint by 30-50%. Bio-based products made of this material have passed the US USDA Certified by the Bio-Priority Program, it has become the first choice for low-carbon consumption and environmentally friendly living. At the same time, this product has the characteristics of low odor and low VOC. Compared with other plant-based polyethers, it has less odor, which can meet the needs of high-end furniture users and bring a healthier and more environmentally friendly experience to end customers. Not only is it outstanding in environmental protection, but its excellent compression resistance, cell structure and other product properties bring a better user experience. At the same time, its high processing tolerance allows more downstream users to meet the requirements without adjusting the production formula. Environmental protection requirements for high-end products in the industry.

From products to industry solutions, from business cooperation to deep integration. In the future, Wanhua Chemical will continue to join hands with Gujia Home Furnishing Co., Ltd. to deeply implement the corporate mission of “Chemistry Makes Life Better” around the direction of green and low-carbon raw materials, foam recycling technology, and high-performance differentiated products, and protect the health of the home with the power of chemistry. Living and helping the home furnishing industry usher in a “green spring”!
