Polyurethane additives are used to make high-performance products that are strong but lightweight, perform well, and are durable and versatile. The polyurethane additives market is segmented by type, application, end-user industry, and geography.Polyurethane additives determine the performance of polyurethane foams and create advantages in the final foam performance.
These include numerous silicone stabilisers and tertiary amine catalysts, as well as organic-based foam property modifiers.Polyurethane foams can be found in seats, armrests and headrests of most cars, where their cushioning properties help to reduce the fatigue and stress often associated with driving.

Dow Introduces New VORASURF Polyurethane Additives.The transition to the VORASURF™ brand name will begin in November 2017 and will be fully transitioned by the end of 2018.
All Dow Corning PUA products will still be offered, but to help ensure a smooth transition, updated product names will feature Dow Corning’s “DC” and retain the original product grade numbers (i.e. DC 193, DC 2525, DC 5950, etc.) For a full listing of all updated product names, visit the Dow Corning information centre.
Dow will officially launch the product name change and the Dow Corning surfactants portfolio at the annual Center for Polyurethanes Technical Conference (CPI) taking place October in New Orleans, LA.
Dow Corning PUA products into the polyurethanes industry, expanding our already extensive toolbox of proven silicone surfactants for high-performance polyurethane foam,” said Richard James, global segment leader for polyurethane additives.
“In addition to expanding our portfolio, we are continuing to innovate with advanced products like low volatile organic compounds, automotive surfactants and new hydrofluoroolefin compatible products.”the technologies of Dow Corning Polyurethane Additives (PUA) will be sold by Dow under the VORASURF Polyurethane Additives brand name.
VORASURFPolyurethane Additives will address consumer comfort and energy efficiency markets to help meet growing demand for high-performance materials in bedding, footwear and spray foam.
