Continuous production polyol plant

Article Abstract:

Bayer Corp has inaugurated the world's first facility that produces polyether polyols, a polyurethane raw materials, in a continuous process. The plant is equipped with the company's proprietary IMPACT catalyst technology, a production process for manufacturing long-chain polyether polyols. The key to the technology is a double-metal catalyst that is approximately 1,000 times more active in accelerating the polyol reaction than the industry's current standard.
