Foam Blowing Agents
Our ultra-low Global Warming Potential (GWP) foam blowing agents are used in spray foam insulation for commercial and residential buildings, insulated metal panels, appliance insulation, and many other applications worldwide.
Honeywell has invested more than one billion dollars in its Solstice® technology, having anticipated the need for lower-global-warming-potential (LGWP) solutions more than a decade ago. Solstice® liquid and gas blowing agents for foam insulation applications are based on hydrofluoro-olefin (HFO) technology, and with a global warming potential (GWP) of 1, 99.9% lower than hydrofluorocarbons (HFC) blowing agents. Solstice® blowing agents are helping customers realize their energy efficiency goals, with a 10% improvement in insulation performance vs hydrocarbons. Solstice® blowing agents are non-ozone-depleting, nonflammable (ASTM E-681 and EU A11), listed under the U.S. EPA’s Significant New Alternatives Policy (SNAP) program to replace ozone-depleting substances, listed on the TSCA inventory/registered under REACH, and is VOC-exempt (per U.S. EPA).
Featured Applications
Solstice® Liquid Blowing Agent
- Applicable for new systems, offers an optimal balance of properties, including better energy performance and stronger eco-efficiency
- Proven replacement for HCFC-141b and other hydrofluorocarbon and nonfluorocarbon blowing agents in rigid polyurethane foam.
- Ideal for extruded polystyrene (XPS) and one- and two-component PUR foams. It replaces HFC-134a and other blowing agents with a GWP < 1.
Solstice® Liquid Blowing Agent
- Applicable for new systems, offers an optimal balance of properties, including better energy performance and stronger eco-efficiency
- Standard in HFC technology for polyurethane foam applications worldwide.
