Visit our tabletop exhibit.<br />
Session Organizers: Mike Krupa, BASF Corporation<br />
Jeff King, Dow, David Williams, Honeywell<br />
Moderator: Jeff King, Dow<br />
Vice Moderator: Mike Krupa, BASF Corporation<br />
The Appliance/Cold Chain session will bring together both raw material<br />
interests with new processing options for the insulating foam industry.<br />
Replacement of current HFC’s with lower GWP 4th generation blowing<br />
agents, or HFO’s are evaluated in the reach-in cooler industry. Process<br />
improvements will be shown which significantly improve cycle time,<br />
flowability, and the insulation values in the appliance area. New<br />
developments in surfactant technologies will be discussed, specifically<br />
around hydrocarbon blown foams. The session will conclude with a<br />
presentation discussing a new low GWP blowing agent evaluated in<br />
household refrigeration.<br />
