They were producing and exporting to India Instapak Chemical B which has the same HS Tariff category as Slabstock Polyol produced by domestic producers, but which is neither like nor directly competitive with FSP [flexible slabstock polyurethane foams]. Although both substances contain Polyol, Instapak Chemical B differs from FSP in the following ways :(i) Different molecular weight of Polyol.(ii) Different chemical additives.(iii) Unique reactivity with Instapak Chemical A.... Instapak Chemical B and FSP are not directly competitive articles because it has a unique end use. It is used only to produce protective foam in-house to package items such as defence electronics, avionics, computer peripherals, aircraft parts etc. and not for mattresses or flexible slabstock. 1, record 3, English, - Instapak%C2%AE%20chemical%20A

Foaming. ... Compounding of the ingredients of a foam formulation is generally carried out in either of two ways: the "one-shot" or the "partial prepolymer" method. ... In the partial prepolymer method all the isocyanate is reacted first with part of the polyol; this intermediate is referred to as the A component. The remainder of the polyol, containing the catalyst, blowing agent, and other ingredients, forms the B component. The two components are supplied in separate containers and constitute a two-part prefoam mixture system that requires good agitation for blending and foaming. 3, record 3, English, - Instapak%C2%AE%20chemical%20A
