Abstract
Abstract A PROCESS IS DISCLOSED FOR REDUCING ACIDITY AND HYDROLYZABLE CHLORIDE LEVELS IN POLYMETHYLENE POLYPHENYLSIOCYANATES. THE PROCESS COMPRISES TREATING THE POLYMERIC ISOCYANARE WITH FROM 0.25 TO 1.0 EPOXY EQUIVALENTS OF A MONOMERIX EPOXIDE COMPOUND FOR EACH EQUIVALENT OF ACID PRESENT IN THE ISOCYANATE. THE PROCESS IS PARTICULARLY ADVANTAGEOUS IN THE REDUCTION OF ACID AND HYDROLYZABLE CHLORIDE LEVELS IS OBTAINED WITOUT APPRECIALE INCREASES IN POLYMER VISCOSITY. POLYMETHYLENE POLYPHENYLISOCYANATES TREATED BY THE PROCESS OF THE INVENTION SHOW IMPROVED REACCTIVITY RATES IN THE PREPARATION OF POLYURETHANE AND POLYISOCYANURATE FOAMS, AND RESULT IN FORMS OF IMPROVED STRUCTURE.
