Abstract

Abstract In a process for producing polyurethane foam, which process comprises reacting in one step a polyether polyol and a crosslinking agent with a polyisocyanate in the presence of a catalyst and a blowing agent, the improvement of employing as at least a major proportion of the crosslinking agent a soluble amine salt obtained by reacting a cycloaliphatic polyamine having at least two primary amine groups with approximately the stoichiometric amount of a carboxylic acid.
