Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim
112 words
A flame-retardant polyurethane foam composition formed in the presence of a blowing agent which comprises the product formed by the reaction of an organic di- or poly-isocyanate and a polyol blend comprised of a mixture of 2,3-dihalo-2-butene-1,4-diol and a polyhydroxy compound selected from the group consisting of sorbitol, mono- and di-saccharides and alkoxylated sorbitol and mono- and di-saccharides containing up to 10 oxyalkylene or oxyarylene groups per hydroxyl groups of the sorbitol and mono- and di-saccharide wherein the hydroxyl number of said blend is from about 300 to about 600 and said 2,3-dihalo-2-butene-1,4-diol is present at a concentration of from about 15% to 40% based on the weight of the polyol blend.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
112 words
A flame-retardant polyurethane foam composition formed in the presence of a blowing agent which comprises the product formed by the reaction of an organic di- or poly-isocyanate and a polyol blend comprised of a mixture of 2,3-dihalo-2-butene-1,4-diol and a polyhydroxy compound selected from the group consisting of sorbitol, mono- and di-saccharides and alkoxylated sorbitol and mono- and di-saccharides containing up to 10 oxyalkylene or oxyarylene groups per hydroxyl groups of the sorbitol and mono- and di-saccharide wherein the hydroxyl number of said blend is from about 300 to about 600 and said 2,3-dihalo-2-butene-1,4-diol is present at a concentration of from about 15% to 40% based on the weight of the polyol blend.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
33 words
A flame-retardant polyurethane foam composition of claim 1 wherein the polyol blend is comprised of 2,3-dibromo-2-butene-1,4-diol and polyoxypropylene sorbitol wherein the oxypropylene content is from 2 to 20 mols per mol of sorbitol.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
13 words
A flame-retardant polyurethane foam composition of claim 1 wherein the 2,3-dihalo-2-butene-1,4-diol is 2,3-dibromo-2-butene-1,4-diol.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
31 words
A flame-retardant polyurethane foam composition of claim 1 wherein the 2,3-dihalo-2-butene-1,4-diol is 2,3-dibromo-2-butene-1,4-diol which is present at a concentration of about 25 percent based on the weight of the polyol blend.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
33 words
A flame-retardant polyurethane foam composition of claim 1 wherein the polyol blend is comprised of dibromobutenediol and polyoxypropylene sucrose wherein the oxypropylene content is from 2 to 20 mols per mol of sucrose.
