Abstract

Abstract The instant invention relates to a process for the production of flame-resistant, hard foams which contain urethane groups from polyisocyanates, active-hydrogen containing compounds, water and/or organic blowing agents, and flame-retarding agents, the improvement wherein the flame-retarding agent used is a mixture of (a) an addition compound of (1) a mono-alcohol, a polyalcohol, or mixtures thereof, and (2) a lactam, and (b) a phosphorous containing acid or acid ester.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim 126 words
In a process for the production of flame resistant, hard polyurethane foam from polyisocyanates, active-hydrogen containing compounds, water and/or blowing agents, and flame retarding agents, the improvement wherein the flame retarding agent used is a mixture of: a. an addition compound of 1. a monoalcohol, a polyalcohol or mixtures thereof, and 2. a lactam; and b. a phosphorous containing acid or acid ester, wherein component (a) is present in said mixture in an amount of from about 1 to about 99 percent by weight, and component (b) is present in said mixture in an amount of from about 99 to about 1 percent by weight, and wherein said addition compound is formed from 0.1 to 15 mols of component (1) and 1 mol of component (2).
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 126 words
In a process for the production of flame resistant, hard polyurethane foam from polyisocyanates, active-hydrogen containing compounds, water and/or blowing agents, and flame retarding agents, the improvement wherein the flame retarding agent used is a mixture of: a. an addition compound of 1. a monoalcohol, a polyalcohol or mixtures thereof, and 2. a lactam; and b. a phosphorous containing acid or acid ester, wherein component (a) is present in said mixture in an amount of from about 1 to about 99 percent by weight, and component (b) is present in said mixture in an amount of from about 99 to about 1 percent by weight, and wherein said addition compound is formed from 0.1 to 15 mols of component (1) and 1 mol of component (2).
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 35 words
The process according to claim 1, wherein said component (b) is selected from the group consisting of phosphorus containing acids, neutral phosphoric acid esters, neutral phosphonic acid esters, neutral phorphorous acid esters, and mixtures thereof.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 74 words
The process according to claim 2, wherein said lactam is of the general formula: ##STR10## wherein m is an integer of from 0 to 9 and R represents a hydrogen atom when X is a CH-group, and wherein m is 3 and R represents a C 1 -C 18 alkyl, a C 7 -C 15 aralkyl, a pyridine, or a C 1 -C 6 alkyl group substituted pyridine when X is a nitrogen atom.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 16 words
The process according to claim 3, wherein component (1) is partly or completely replaced by water.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 26 words
The process according to claim 1, wherein said addition compound is formed from 0.1 to 15 mols of component (1) and 1 mol of component (2).
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 74 words
The process according to claim 1, wherein said lactam is of the general formula: ##STR11## wherein m is an integer of from 0 to 9 and R represents a hydrogen atom when X is a CH-group, and wherein m is 3 and R represents a C 1 -C 18 alkyl, a C 7 -C 15 aralkyl, a pyridine, or a C 1 -C 6 alkyl group substituted pyridine when X is a nitrogen atom.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 8 words
The product of the process of claim 1.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 8 words
The product of the process of claim 3.
