Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 13
Claim 1
Independent Claim 54 words
A polyurethane foam composition prepared by a process which comprises reacting an organic polyisocyanate or a polyisocyanate prepolymer with a resin mixture comprising a first polyol formed by reacting an alkylene oxide with a resole, said resole being formed in the presence of an alkaline catalyst by the reaction of phenol, urea and aldehyde.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 54 words
A polyurethane foam composition prepared by a process which comprises reacting an organic polyisocyanate or a polyisocyanate prepolymer with a resin mixture comprising a first polyol formed by reacting an alkylene oxide with a resole, said resole being formed in the presence of an alkaline catalyst by the reaction of phenol, urea and aldehyde.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 39 words
The polyurethane foam composition of claim 1 wherein the only polyol in said resin mixture is a urea-modified resole-based polyol present in an amount of from about 60 to about 90 parts per 100 parts of the resin mixture.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 25 words
The polyurethane foam composition of claim 1 wherein said resin mixture comprises at least one additional polyol, at least one crosslinking agent and a catalyst.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 42 words
The polyurethane foam composition of claim 1 wherein said resin mixture comprises a second polyol wherein said first and second polyols are present in a total amount of from about 60 to about 75 parts per 100 parts of the resin mixture.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 21 words
The polyurethane foam composition of claim 3 wherein said second polyol is an aromatic amine polyol or an aromatic polyether polyol.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 40 words
The polyurethane foam composition of claim 3 wherein said resin mixture comprises a third polyol which is a fire retardant polyol present in an amount of from about 1 to about 10 parts per 100 parts of the resin mixture.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 33 words
The polyurethane foam composition of claim 1 wherein said resin mixture comprises a catalyst present in an amount of from about 0.6 to about 1.2 parts per 100 parts of the resin mixture.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 34 words
The polyurethane foam composition of claim 1 wherein said resin mixture comprises a blowing agent present in an amount of from about 10 to about 30 parts per 100 parts of the resin mixture.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 33 words
The polyurethane foam composition of claim 1 wherein said resin mixture comprises a surfactant present in an amount of from about 0.3 to about 3 parts per 100 parts of the resin mixture.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim 29 words
The polyurethane foam composition of claim 1 wherein the polyurethane foam composition has a --NCO/--OH index of from about 1.05 to about 1.2 parts --NCO per 1 part --OH.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim 31 words
The polyurethane foam composition of claim 1 in which said urea is present in an amount within a range of from about 0.1 to about 1.0 mole per mole of phenol.
Claim 13
Dependent Claim 33 words
The polyurethane foam composition of claim 1 in which said aldehyde is present in an amount of from within a range of from about 1.5 to about 8 moles per mole of phenol.
