Rikeizai  
Manufactured polyurethane foam constitutes a major portion of today's automobiles. To achieve high aesthetic and manufacturing quality, perfect releasibility is vital. Cytech Products, Inc. offers external release agents designed to release formed polyurethane products. Aimed at the automotive sector, RIKIEZAI is used for seats, head rests, steering wheels, energy absorbing parts, structural foam, and more. Rikeizai products are offered in solvent-borne and water-borne states. We work closely with our customers to provide release agents to fit specific parameters. Release, surface quality, and build up are always the main focus. As needed; environmental concerns, bonding, gloss, and other issues are controlled by component selection.
