Polyols
Enabling polyurethane innovations
When polyether or polyester polyols combine with isocyanates and other additives, it’s easier than ever to create flexible polyurethane foams and semi-rigid plastics. Our broad portfolio of chemical treatment polyols offers high-performance formulations for the consumer and industrial markets.
Tailored solutions for flexible slabstock foams
Our comprehensive portfolio of polyether polyols for the continuous production of flexible slabstock foams, offers custom molecular weights and structures to meet desired foam properties. Whether for standard, high resilience, or viscoelastic foams, Dow’s portfolio has the polyol to match your needs. For standard and high resilience foams, it is recommended to integrate a polymer polyol to control foam firmness.

Enhanced crosslinking for diverse foamed and cast applications
Dow’s rigid polyols are characterized by higher functionalities at lower molecular weights for increased crosslinking. They have predominantly secondary hydroxyl groups. These rigid polyols can be used in foamed and cast applications or in combination with polyols with a higher molecular weight to increase hardness of the final product.

Autocatalytic polyols help reduce VOC emissions
Dow’s amine-based polyols are designed to be autocatalytic. They require less catalyst to achieve the same reactivity, helping reduce emissions from volatile catalysts and improve curing for better processing and article green strength. Typical applications include flexible and rigid foams as well as castings.
