Abstract
Abstract Products which are phosphorus containing oligomers having ¦¦ -O-C-C-O- ¦¦ linkages between phosphorus atoms and which are obtained by the self-condensation of beta -haloalkyl esters of pentavalent phosphorus acids or by condensation of these esters with an alkyl ester of a pentavalent phosphorus acid are treated after residual acidity has been neutralized with an alkylene oxide for a period of time which is sufficient to enable the alkylene oxide to act upon labile groups contained in the condensed product, i.e., cyclic, pyro and bridged groups, and to neutralize any further acidity generated by the opening of such groups. The stabilized products formed by this process when incorporated in a polyurethane foam formulation produce a foam having superior green strength to a foam containing such products which have not been treated in accordance with this invention.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim
109 words
A process for forming a stabilized condensation product, which is adapted to be incorporated in a polyurethane foam, derived from condensing a β-haloalkyl ester of a pentavalent phosphorus acid with itself or with an alkyl ester of a pentavalent phosphorus acid to form a condensation product which comprises treating said condensation product with from about 1% to about 10%, by weight based on the weight of the condensation product of an alkylene oxide for from about 2 to about 12 hours at a temperature of about 90°C. to about 140°C. after residual acidity has been neutralized to open labile groups contained in the product and to neutralize those groups.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
109 words
A process for forming a stabilized condensation product, which is adapted to be incorporated in a polyurethane foam, derived from condensing a β-haloalkyl ester of a pentavalent phosphorus acid with itself or with an alkyl ester of a pentavalent phosphorus acid to form a condensation product which comprises treating said condensation product with from about 1% to about 10%, by weight based on the weight of the condensation product of an alkylene oxide for from about 2 to about 12 hours at a temperature of about 90°C. to about 140°C. after residual acidity has been neutralized to open labile groups contained in the product and to neutralize those groups.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
27 words
A process as claimed in claim 1 wherein the alkylene oxide is added for a period of about 6-11 hours after the residual acidity has been neutralized.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
19 words
A process as claimed in claim 1 wherein the alkylene oxide is added at a temperature of about 90°-110°C.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
17 words
A process as claimed in claim 1 wherein the alkylene oxide which is added is ethylene oxide.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
61 words
A process as claimed in claim 1 wherein the condensation product which is treated is selected from the group consisting of the homocondensation product of tris(2-chloroethyl) phosphate, the copolycondensation product of bis(2-chloroethyl) vinylphosphonate and dimethyl methylphosphonate, the copolycondensation product of bis(2-chloroethyl) vinylphosphonate and trimethyl phosphate, the homocondensation product of bis(2-chloroethyl) vinylphosphonate, and the copolycondensation product of tris(2-chloroethyl) phosphate and dimethyl methylphosphonate.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
10 words
The stabilized products formed by the process of claim 1.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
10 words
A stabilized product formed by the process of claim 5.
