EMEROX® Aliphatic Polyester Polyols for Rigid Foam Applications

Watch Video: Learn How EMEROX® Polyester Polyols Outperform in Geotech Applications

Our family of aliphatic EMEROX Polyols is engineered to perform similarly to sucrose glycerin polyether polyols (as a direct 1:1 substitute for SG) in typical rigid foam applications, including geotechnical, spray foam and pipe insulation.

Key benefits include:

  • Excellent compressive strength and dimensional stability properties
  • Superior hydrophobicity – when foamed under water, EMEROX Polyol-based systems foamed out of water (leaving water clear) and provided density much closer to product foamed under dry conditions
  • Positive swelling benefits (intumescence) when tested for fire performance
  • All of our aliphatic polyols are USDA Certified Biobased Products at 99%
