Overview
Solstice® Liquid Blowing Agent (LBA) is our latest advancement in foam blowing agent technology. Based on hydrofluoro-olefin (HFO) technology, Solstice LBA has a global warming potential (GWP) of 1, 99.9% lower than HFC blowing agents. It is a cost-effective replacement for other liquid foam blowing agents. Solstice Solstice LBA is:
- 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
- VOC-exempt (per U.S. EPA)
