Abstract

Abstract Novel solid polyisocyanurate polymers are disclosed which comprise the reaction product of an organic polyisocyanate, a trimerization catalyst and a polyol combination comprising from about 0.025 to about 0.15 equivalent and about 0.05 to about 0.25 equivalent, per equivalent of polyisocyanate, respectively of a polypropyleneoxy triol having an equivalent weight of from about 750 to about 1500 and ethylene glycol.
