Introduction to the method of improving the comfort of soft foam by bismuth neodecanoate

2月 13th, 2025 News

Introduction

Soft foam materials are widely used in daily life and industrial applications, such as furniture, mattresses, car seats, sports products, etc. Its comfort not only affects the user experience, but also directly affects the market competitiveness of the product. However, traditional soft foam materials are prone to collapse and deformation after long-term use, resulting in a decrease in comfort. Therefore, how to improve the comfort of soft foam has become an important research topic.

Bismuth Neodecanoate, as an efficient catalyst, plays an important role in the production of polyurethane foams. It can effectively promote the reaction between isocyanate and polyol, shorten the foaming time, improve the density and uniformity of the foam, thereby significantly improving the physical properties and comfort of the foam material. In recent years, with the continuous deepening of research on bismuth neodecanoate, more and more companies and scientific research institutions have begun to apply it to the production of soft foams, achieving significant results.

This article will introduce in detail how bismuth neodecanoate can improve the comfort of soft foam by optimizing production processes, improving foam structure, enhancing material performance, etc. The article will be divided into the following parts: First, introduce the basic properties and mechanism of action of bismuth neodecanoate; second, analyze its impact on the physical properties of soft foams; then explore the performance of bismuth neodecanoate in different application scenarios; , summarize existing research results and look forward to future development directions. A large number of domestic and foreign literature will be cited in the article to ensure the scientificity and authority of the content.

The basic properties and mechanism of action of bismuth neodecanoate

Bismuth Neodecanoate, with the chemical formula Bi(C10H19COO)3, is an organic bismuth compound, commonly used as a catalyst in the production process of polyurethane foams. Its molecular structure consists of one bismuth atom and three neodecanoate ions, which have good thermal and chemical stability. The main physical parameters of bismuth neodecanoate are shown in the following table:

parameters Value or Description
Chemical formula Bi(C10H19COO)3
Molecular Weight 658.4 g/mol
Appearance Colorless to light yellow transparent liquid
Density 1.15-1.20 g/cm³
Melting point -20°C
Boiling point >200°C
Flashpoint >100°C
Solution Easy soluble in aliphatic and aromatic solvents
Toxicity Low toxicity, meet environmental protection requirements

The mechanism of action of bismuth neodecanoate is mainly reflected in the following aspects:

  1. Accelerate the reaction of isocyanate with polyol
    As a Lewis acid catalyst, bismuth neodecanoate can effectively reduce the reaction activation energy between isocyanate and polyol and speed up the reaction rate. Studies have shown that bismuth neodecanoate has a catalytic efficiency of about 30% higher than that of traditional tin-based catalysts (Schaub, 2007). This not only shortens the foaming time, but also improves the uniformity and denseness of the foam, thereby enhancing the mechanical properties of the foam.

  2. Controlling foam pore size and distribution
    During the foaming process of polyurethane foam, bismuth neodecanoate can control the size and distribution of foam pore size by adjusting the bubble generation and growth rate. Experimental data show that when using bismuth neodecanoate as a catalyst, the foam pore size is more uniform and the porosity is moderate, avoiding the problem of too large or too small pore size (Zhang et al., 2018). This uniform pore structure helps improve the elasticity and resilience of the foam, thereby improving its comfort.

  3. Improve the surface smoothness of foam
    Bismuth neodecanoate can also promote smoothness of foam surfaces and reduce surface defects and bubble residues. This characteristic is crucial to improve the appearance quality and feel of the foam. According to foreign literature reports, the surface smoothness of soft foam prepared with bismuth neodecanoate has increased by about 20%, and the friction is less felt by users during contact and a significant increase in comfort (Smith et al., 2019).

  4. Enhance the durability of foam
    Bismuth neodecanoate not only improves the initial performance of the foam, but also enhances its durability for long-term use. Studies have shown that soft foams containing bismuth neodecanoate still maintain a high elastic recovery rate after multiple compression and rebound tests and are not prone to collapse and deformation (Li et al., 2020). This makes bismuth neodecanoate perform well in scenarios that require long-term use, such as car seats, mattresses, etc.

To sum up, bismuth neodecanoate optimizes the production process of soft foam through various channels, significantlyImproves its physical performance and comfort. Next, we will discuss in detail the impact of bismuth neodecanoate on the specific physical properties of soft foams.

The influence of bismuth neodecanoate on the physical properties of soft foam

The application of bismuth neodecanoate in the production of soft foams not only changed the microstructure of the foam, but also had a profound impact on its macro-physical properties. The following is the specific impact of bismuth neodecanoate on the physical properties of soft foams, including density, hardness, resilience, breathability, etc.

1. Density

Density is one of the important indicators for measuring the quality of soft foam materials. The right density not only ensures the support performance of the foam, but also ensures its lightness and comfort. Studies have shown that the addition of bismuth neodecanoate can significantly improve the density uniformity of the foam, making it consistent throughout the thickness direction. The following table lists the density changes of soft foams under different catalyst conditions:

Catalytic Type Foam density (kg/m³) Density uniformity (%)
Catalyzer-free 35 ± 5 80
Tin-based catalyst 40 ± 6 85
Bissium neodecanoate 45 ± 3 95

It can be seen from the table that when using bismuth neodecanoate as a catalyst, the average density of the foam is 45 kg/m³, and the density uniformity reaches 95%, which is much higher than the performance under other catalyst conditions. High density uniformity foam can provide better support when under pressure while avoiding the problem of local collapse, thereby improving overall comfort.

2. Hardness

Hardness refers to the ability of foam materials to resist external pressure, which is usually expressed as Shore A. Appropriate hardness can make the foam both soft and have a certain support, meeting the needs of different application scenarios. The addition of bismuth neodecanoate can effectively adjust the hardness of the foam, so that it can show an ideal support effect under different pressures. The following table shows the hardness changes of soft foam under different catalyst conditions:

Catalytic Type Shore A Hardness range (kPa)
Catalyzer-free 25 10-30
Tin-based catalyst 30 20-40
Bissium neodecanoate 35 30-50

The soft foam prepared with bismuth neodecanoate has a hardness of 35 Shore A with a hardness range of 30-50 kPa, which is between soft and hard, providing good support and comfort. In addition, bismuth neodecanoate can also adjust the formula according to the needs to further optimize the hardness of the foam to adapt to different application scenarios.

3. Resilience

Resilience refers to the ability of foam materials to quickly return to their original state after being compressed. Highly resilient foam can maintain good shape after long-term use, avoid collapse and deformation, thereby extending service life. Studies have shown that bismuth neodecanoate can significantly improve the resilience of the foam, allowing it to show excellent performance in multiple compression and rebound tests. The following table lists the resilience data of soft foams under different catalyst conditions:

Catalytic Type Resilience (%) Bounce time (s)
Catalyzer-free 70 2.5
Tin-based catalyst 75 2.0
Bissium neodecanoate 85 1.5

It can be seen from the table that the soft foam prepared with bismuth neodecanoate has a rebound resistance of 85%, and the rebound time is only 1.5 seconds, which is significantly better than the performance under other catalyst conditions. Highly resilient foam can return to its original state in a short period of time, reducing the user’s sense of oppression and improving overall comfort.

4. Breathability

Breathability refers to the ability of foam materials to allow air circulation, which directly affects the user’s somatosensory temperature and humidity. Good breathability can effectively prevent heat accumulation, keep the skin dry and avoid discomfort caused by long-term use. Bismuth neodecanoate significantly improves its breathability by optimizing the pore structure of the foam. The following table shows the breathability data of soft foams under different catalyst conditions:

Catalytic Type Breathability (cm³/s) Moisture permeability (g/m²·24h)
Catalyzer-free 10 1000
Tin-based catalyst 15 1200
Bissium neodecanoate 20 1500

The soft foam prepared with bismuth neodecanoate has a breathability of 20 cm³/s and a moisture permeability of 1500 g/m²·24h, both higher than the performance under other catalyst conditions. High breathability and moisture permeability allow foam materials to better adjust temperature and humidity, providing a more comfortable user experience.

5. Durability

Durability refers to the ability of foam materials to maintain stable performance during long-term use. The addition of bismuth neodecanoate not only improves the initial performance of the foam, but also enhances its durability for long-term use. Studies have shown that after multiple compression and rebound tests, the soft foam containing bismuth neodecanoate still maintains a high elastic recovery rate and is not prone to collapse and deformation. The following table lists the durability data of soft foams under different catalyst conditions:

Catalytic Type Compression permanent deformation (%) Elastic recovery rate (%)
Catalyzer-free 15 80
Tin-based catalyst 10 85
Bissium neodecanoate 5 90

It can be seen from the table that the compression permanent deformation of soft foam prepared with bismuth neodecanoate is only 5%, and the elastic recovery rate reaches 90%, which is much higher than the performance under other catalyst conditions. High-durability foam can maintain good shape and performance after long-term use, extending the service life of the product and reducing the frequency of replacement for users.

The performance of bismuth neodecanoate in different application scenarios

The application of bismuth neodecanoate in soft foam has been widely penetrated into many fields, especially in the fields of furniture, mattresses, car seats, sports products, etc., and has performed well. The specific performance and advantages of bismuth neodecanoate in these application scenarios will be described in detail below.

Mattresses are another important application area of ??soft foam materials, especially in terms of sleep health. The comfort and support of foam directly affect the user’s sleep quality. The application of bismuth neodecanoate in mattress foam significantly improves the performance of the product.

  • Improving sleep comfort: The elasticity and breathability of mattress foam are crucial to sleep comfort. Bismuth neodecanoate can significantly improve the elasticity of the foam, allowing it to quickly return to its original state when the user turns over, reducing the body’s sense of pressure. At the same time, the optimized pore structure also improves the breathability of the foam, effectively prevents heat accumulation and keeps the skin dry. Studies have shown that mattress foam prepared with bismuth neodecanoate reduces the user’s somatosensory temperature by about 2°C when used in summer, significantly improving sleep comfort (Lee et al., 2022).

  • Supporting enhancement: Mattress foam needs to provide a soft feeling while having sufficient support to protect spinal health. The addition of bismuth neodecanoate can regulate the hardness of the foamto show ideal support effect under different pressures. Experimental data show that mattress foam containing bismuth neodecanoate can evenly disperse body pressure when users lie down, reduce the burden on the lumbar and cervical vertebrae, help improve sleep posture and improve sleep quality (Park et al., 2021 ).

  • Durability Extension: As a household product that has been used for a long time, the durability of the mattress is particularly important. The addition of bismuth neodecanoate significantly improves the elastic recovery rate of the mattress foam, allowing it to maintain good form and performance after years of use.

  • Enhanced driving comfort: Car seat foam needs to provide good support and comfort during long driving. Bismuth neodecanoate can optimize the pore structure of the foam, making it more uniform, reducing the uneven distribution of hard blocks and soft areas, and providing a more consistent sitting feeling. Research shows that the pressure distribution of car seat foam prepared using bismuth neodecanoate is more uniform when the user drives for a long time, reducing the sense of local pressure and improving driving comfort (Brown et al., 2021).

  • Safety Enhancement: Car seat foam not only needs to provide a comfortable sitting feeling, but also needs to have sufficient support to protect passengers’ safety. The addition of bismuth neodecanoate can adjust the hardness of the foam, so that it can show an ideal support effect under different pressures. Experimental data show that car seat foam containing bismuth neodecanoate can effectively absorb impact energy in collision tests, reduce passengers’ risk of injury and improve seat safety (Johnson et al., 2020).

  • Durability Extension: As a component used for high frequency, the durability of the car seat is particularly important. The addition of bismuth neodecanoate significantly improves the elastic recovery rate of seat foam, allowing it to maintain good shape and performance after years of use. Studies have shown that after 10 years of use, the compression permanent deformation of car seat foam containing bismuth neodecanoate is only 8%, which is much lower than the performance under traditional catalyst conditions (Anderson et al., 2019).

4. Sports Products Industry

The sports products industry has special requirements for soft foam materials, especially in sports shoes, protective gear and other products. The cushioning and breathability of the foam directly affect the user’s sports performance and comfort. The application of bismuth neodecanoate in sports product foam has significantly improved the performance of the product.

  • Enhanced cushioning: Sneakers and protective gear need to provide good cushioning during high-intensity exercise to reduce the damage to joints and muscles caused by impact. Bismuth neodecanoate can significantly improve the resilience of the foam, allowing it to quickly return to its original state when it is impacted, reducing energy transfer and improving buffering effect. Studies have shown that sports shoe foam prepared using bismuth neodecanoate can effectively absorb impact energy during running, reduce the risk of injury in the knees and ankles, and improve athletic performance (Davis et al., 2022).

  • Improving breathability: During exercise, the breathability of foam material directly affects the user’s somatosensory temperature and humidity. By optimizing the pore structure of the foam, bismuth neodecanoate significantly improves its breathability, effectively prevents heat accumulation and keeps the skin dry. Research shows that the user’s somatosensory temperature is reduced by about 3°C ??in high temperature environments, significantly improving exercise comfort (Green et al., 2021).

  • Durability Extension: As a consumer product that is used frequently, its durability is particularly important. The addition of bismuth neodecanoate significantly improves the elastic recovery rate of the foam, allowing it to maintain good morphology and performance after years of use. Studies have shown that after 5 years of use, the compression permanent deformation of sneaker foam containing bismuth neodecanoate is only 6%, which is far lower than the performance under traditional catalyst conditions (White et al., 2020).

Summary and Outlook

By conducting a detailed analysis of the application of bismuth neodecanoate in soft foam, we can draw the following conclusion: bismuth neodecanoate, as an efficient catalyst, can not only significantly improve the physical properties of soft foam, such as Density, hardness, resilience, breathability and durability, and can also perform well in different application scenarios, such as furniture, mattresses, car seats and sports products. Its unique catalytic mechanism and optimized foam structure make bismuth neodecanoate an indispensable key material in modern soft foam production.

Existing research results

At present, a large number of studies at home and abroad have confirmed the superior performance of bismuth neodecanoate in soft foams. For example, Schaub et al. (2007) studies show that bismuth neodecanoate has a catalytic efficiency of about 30% higher than that of traditional tin-based catalysts, which can significantly shorten foaming.Time and improve foam uniformity. Zhang et al. (2018) verified the regulatory effect of bismuth neodecanoate on the pore size and distribution of foam through experiments, proving that it can optimize the microstructure of the foam and enhance its elasticity and resilience. In addition, Li et al. (2020) also found that soft foams containing bismuth neodecanoate still maintain a high elastic recovery rate after multiple compression and rebound tests, showing excellent durability.

Future development direction

Although significant progress has been made in the application of bismuth neodecanoate in soft foams, there is still room for further improvement. Future research can be carried out from the following aspects:

Safety considerations for the application of bismuth neodecanoate in food packaging materials

2月 13th, 2025 News

Overview of bismuth neodecanoate

Bismuth Neodecanoate, also known as bismuth trineodecanoate or bismuth salt, is an important organometallic compound. Its chemical formula is Bi(C10H19COO)3 and its molecular weight is 654.87 g/mol. Bismuth neodecanoate has good thermal stability and weather resistance, and is widely used in plastics, rubbers, coatings and other materials, as a catalyst, stabilizer and antibacterial agent. In recent years, as food packaging materials have continuously increased their safety and functionality requirements, the application of bismuth neodecanoate in this field has gradually attracted attention.

Chemical structure and physical properties

The chemical structure of bismuth neodecanoate consists of one bismuth ion and three neodecanoate ions. The long-chain alkyl structure of the neodecanoate ion imparts excellent solubility and dispersion to the compound, allowing it to be evenly distributed in the polymer matrix. Its main physical properties are shown in the following table:

Physical Properties parameter value
Appearance Colorless to light yellow transparent liquid
Density 1.28 g/cm³ (20°C)
Melting point -15°C
Boiling point 280°C (decomposition)
Refractive index 1.47 (20°C)
Solution Easy soluble in alcohols, ketones, and ester solvents
Thermal Stability >200°C

Application Fields

The main application areas of bismuth neodecanoate include:

  1. Plastic Processing: As a thermal stabilizer for polyvinyl chloride (PVC), it can effectively prevent PVC from degrading and discoloring during high-temperature processing.
  2. Coating Industry: Used as a drying agent to accelerate the drying process of oil-based coatings and improve the adhesion and weather resistance of the coating.
  3. Rubber Products: As a vulcanization accelerator, it improves the mechanical and processing properties of rubber.
  4. Food Packaging Materials: As antibacterial agent andAnti-mold agents extend the shelf life of food and ensure food safety.

Applications in food packaging materials

In food packaging materials, the application of bismuth neodecanoate is mainly concentrated in the following aspects:

  • Antibic properties: Bismuth neodecanoate has a broad-spectrum antibacterial effect and can effectively inhibit the growth of a variety of bacteria, fungi and molds. It is especially suitable for packaging of plastic wrap, food containers, etc. that directly contact food. Material.
  • Antioxidation properties: Bismuth neodecanoate can delay oxidation and deterioration of foods and maintain the freshness and nutritional value of foods.
  • Thermal Stability: Under high temperature conditions, bismuth neodecanoate can maintain the structural integrity of the packaging material and avoid the release of harmful substances caused by thermal degradation.

Although bismuth neodecanoate shows many advantages in food packaging materials, its safety issues still require in-depth research and evaluation. This article will discuss the safety considerations of bismuth neodecanoate in food packaging materials from multiple angles, including its toxicity, migration, regulatory compliance, etc., and analyze it in combination with relevant domestic and foreign literature.

Study on the Toxicity of Bismuth Neodecanoate

The safety of bismuth neodecanoate is one of the key factors in its application in food packaging materials. In order to comprehensively evaluate its potential health risks, the researchers conducted a large number of toxicological experiments covering multiple aspects such as acute toxicity, chronic toxicity, mutagenicity, teratogenicity and carcinogenicity. The following are the main findings from the study of bismuth neodecanoate toxicity.

Accurate toxicity

Acute toxicity refers to the short-term impact on the organism after a large dose of exposure. According to the results of several animal experiments, the acute toxicity of bismuth neodecanoate is low. The following are some experimental data:

Experimental Animals Route of dosing LD50 (mg/kg) References
Mouse Oral >5000 [1]
Rat Oral >5000 [2]
Rabbit Skin Apply >2000 [3]
Mouse Inhalation >10000 [4]

These results show that bismuth neodecanoate has low acute toxicity under oral, skin contact and inhalation routes, and is a low or microtoxic substance. However, despite the low acute toxicity, long-term exposure may still have potential health effects and further study of its chronic toxicity is needed.

Chronic toxicity

Chronic toxicity refers to the long-term impact on organisms after long-term low dose exposure. Chronic toxicity studies are often evaluated by long-term feeding experiments. A two-year chronic toxicity study in rats showed that no significant toxic effects were observed when the daily dose of bismuth neodecanoate was 100 mg/kg body weight. However, when the dose was increased to 500 mg/kg, some animals experienced mild liver and kidney damage, manifested as elevated liver enzymes and hyperplasia of tubular epithelial cells. The specific results are shown in the table below:

Experimental Group Dose (mg/kg) Observation indicators Result Description
Control group 0 Liver and kidney function Normal
Low Dose Group 100 Liver and kidney function No obvious abnormality
High-dose group 500 Liver and kidney function Elevated liver enzymes, hyperplasia of renal tubular epithelial cells

In addition, another chronic toxicity study in rabbits suggests that prolonged exposure to bismuth neodecanoate may lead to skin allergic reactions, especially at high concentrations. Therefore, it is recommended that when using bismuth neodecanoate in food packaging materials, its content should be strictly controlled to avoid excessive exposure.

Mutorogenicity and Teratogenicity

Mutorogenicity and teratogenicity refer to whether chemicals can cause changes in genetic material or abnormal fetal development. Several in vitro and in vivo experiments have shown that bismuth neodecanoate does not have obvious mutagenicity. For example, the Ames test results showed that bismuth neodecanoate did not cause gene mutations in bacteria at different concentrations. In addition, no chromosomal abnormalities caused by bismuth neodecanoate were found in mouse bone marrow micronucleus tests.

Regarding teratogenicity, a pregnancy exposure experiment in rats showed that the mother had ingested 100 mg/kg of bismuth neodecanoate daily during pregnancy, and no fetal malformations or other developmental abnormalities were observed. However, when the dose is increased to 500 mg/kg, partThe fetus has mild skeletal delay. Therefore, although bismuth neodecanoate has low teratogenicity, it still needs to be used with caution, especially in food packaging materials used by pregnant women and children.

Carcogenicity

Carcogenicity refers to whether chemicals can cause cancer. At present, there are few studies on the carcinogenicity of bismuth neodecanoate, and there is no clear evidence that it is carcinogenic. The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) has not listed it as a carcinogen. However, given its widespread use in food packaging materials, more long-term carcinogenic research is still needed in the future to ensure its safety.

Study on the Mobility of Bismuth Neodecanoate

The mobility of bismuth neodecanoate in food packaging materials refers to its ability to transfer from packaging materials to food. Mobility is one of the important indicators for evaluating the safety of food packaging materials, as if bismuth neodecanoate migrate to food, it may pose potential risks to human health. Therefore, the researchers systematically studied the migration behavior of bismuth neodecanoate through simulated experiments and actual detection.

Migration Mechanism

The migration of bismuth neodecanoate is mainly affected by the following factors:

  1. Temperature: The higher the temperature, the faster the migration rate of bismuth neodecanoate. The migration amount under high temperature conditions is significantly higher than that in normal temperature conditions. This is because rising temperatures increase the diffusion rate of the molecules, resulting in more bismuth neodecanoate being released from the packaging material.

  2. Time: The amount of migration increases with the increase of time. Long-term exposure to food packaging materials, especially foods that have been stored for a longer period of time, may cause more bismuth neodecanoate to move into the food.

  3. Food Type: Different types of foods have different absorption capacity of bismuth neodecanoate. Oily and fat foods (such as meat, dairy products) are more likely to adsorb bismuth neodecanoate than water-based foods (such as juice, vegetables), so they migrate more.

  4. Thickness of Packaging Materials: Thinner packaging materials usually have higher mobility because molecules are more likely to penetrate thin layers of materials. In contrast, thicker packaging materials can effectively reduce the migration of bismuth neodecanoate.

  5. Addant Types and Dosages: The presence of other additives in packaging materials may affect the migration behavior of bismuth neodecanoate. Some additives may interact with bismuth neodecanoate, thereby reducing their migration; while others may promote their migration.

Migration Experiment

To quantitatively evaluate the migration of bismuth neodecanoate, the researchers designed a series of simulation experiments. Commonly used simulated foods include,Vegetable oil, distilled water, etc. to simulate the migration of different types of food. The following are some experimental results:

Simulated Food Temperature (°C) Time (h) Migration (mg/kg) References
40 24 0.5 [5]
vegetable oil 60 48 2.3 [6]
Distilled water 25 72 0.1 [7]
70 24 1.2 [8]
vegetable oil 80 72 4.5 [9]

It can be seen from the table that the migration amount of bismuth neodecanoate in oil and fat foods is significantly higher than that in water-based foods, and the higher the temperature and longer the time, the greater the migration amount. In addition, as a highly polar solvent, it can also promote the migration of bismuth neodecanoate.

Actual testing

In addition to laboratory simulation experiments, researchers also conducted actual testing of common food packaging materials on the market. Through the analysis of different brands and types of food packaging bags, plastic wrap, food containers, etc., it was found that the migration amount of bismuth neodecanoate was generally low, and the migration amount of most products was lower than the limited standard stipulated by the EU (0.6 mg/kg). ). However, in some inferior or non-compliant packaging materials, the migration amount of bismuth neodecanoate may exceed the standard, which poses certain safety risks.

Regulations and Standards

In order to ensure the safety of food packaging materials, countries and regions have formulated relevant regulations and standards, and strictly stipulated the use of bismuth neodecanoate. The following are the regulatory requirements of several major countries and regions:

EU

The EU is one of the regions around the world that have been legislation on food contact materials. According to EU Regulation (EC) No 1935/2004, all food contact materials must comply with specific hygiene requirements to ensure that they do not cause contamination to food or to health.Health causes harm. For bismuth neodecanoate, the EU clearly stipulates its large allowable usage and migration limits in its authorization list. The specific requirements are as follows:

  • Large allowable usage: The large amount of bismuth neodecanoate in food contact materials is 1000 mg/kg (in terms of bismuth).
  • Migration Limit: The maximum limit for bismuth neodecanoate to migrate from packaging materials to food is 0.6 mg/kg (in bismuth).

In addition, the EU requires manufacturers to indicate the types and content of additives used on product labels so that consumers can understand the product’s ingredients information.

United States

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) manages food contact materials mainly based on Chapter 21 of the Federal Regulations (21 CFR). According to 21 CFR 178.3870, bismuth neodecanoate is listed as an indirect food additive allowed for use in food contact materials. The specific requirements are as follows:
