    FAQ

    I want a delayed-action catalyst for large polyurethane casting parts. Is MOFAN 12 suitable?

    Yes, MOFAN 12 (N-methylcyclohexylamine) provides a long cream time (2–4 minutes) while still achieving full cure.

    My rigid foam insulation has a short flow time before gelling, causing voids. How to fix?

    Replace your fast gel catalyst with MOFAN 12 (0.2–0.4 phr) to extend the flow window.

    Can MOFAN 12 be used in epoxy terrazzo flooring to extend working time?

    Yes, at 0.5–1.5 phr it gives a pot life of 30–45 minutes at 25°C.

    What is the advantage of MOFAN 12 over DMCHA in slow-cure systems?

    MOFAN 12 is less active, giving a longer delay and lower exotherm.

    My polyurethane elastomer roller cures with internal cracks due to high exotherm. How to avoid?

    Use MOFAN 12 (0.1–0.2 phr) combined with a tin catalyst to spread the cure over a longer period.

    Does MOFAN 12 affect the hardness of the final product?

    It has a mild effect; final hardness is mainly determined by the isocyanate index and polyol.

    Can MOFAN 12 be used in spray foam applications?

    Not recommended for fast spray systems, but can be used in pour-in-place insulation.

    My polyurethane adhesive for bonding glass has poor initial tack. Can MOFAN 12 help?

    No, it delays cure; use a stronger catalyst like MOFAN 5 for faster green strength.

    How should I store MOFAN 12 to maintain its delayed action?

    Keep it sealed and dry; moisture can increase its activity prematurely.

    Is MOFAN 12 compatible with polyester polyols?

    Yes, but check for acidity; if the polyol has an acid number >2, the catalyst may be neutralized.
