Abstract

Abstract Urethane-modified carbodiimide-isocyanurate foams are prepared by catalytically condensing (a) an organic polyisocyanate with a polyol or (b) a quasi-prepolymer in the presence of a blowing agent and from 20 parts to 100 parts by weight of alumina trihydrate. The resulting foams are characterized by improved flame retardancy without loss in strength properties.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim 67 words
A urethane-modified carbodiimide-isocyanurate foam prepared by condensing (a) an organic polyisocyanate with a polyol or (b) an isocyanate-terminated quasi-prepolymer in the presence of ( 1) a catalytically sufficient amount of a catalyst system which promotes the carbodimide and isocyanurate reactions, (2) a blowing agent and (3) from 20 parts to 100 parts by weight based on 100 parts by weight of (a) or (b) of alumina trihydrate.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 67 words
A urethane-modified carbodiimide-isocyanurate foam prepared by condensing (a) an organic polyisocyanate with a polyol or (b) an isocyanate-terminated quasi-prepolymer in the presence of ( 1) a catalytically sufficient amount of a catalyst system which promotes the carbodimide and isocyanurate reactions, (2) a blowing agent and (3) from 20 parts to 100 parts by weight based on 100 parts by weight of (a) or (b) of alumina trihydrate.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 11 words
The foam of claim 1 wherein (a) is crude diphenylmethane diisocyanate.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 17 words
The foam of claim 1 wherein the polyol is an ethylene oxide adduct of a polyhydric alcohol.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 14 words
The foam of claim 3 wherein the polyhydric alcohol is ethylene glycol or trimethylolpropane.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 16 words

Claim 7
Dependent Claim 15 words
The foam of claim 1 wherein the compound which promotes the isocyanurate reaction is 1,3,5-tris-(N,N-dimethylaminopropyl)hexahydrotriazine.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 17 words
The foam of claim 1 prepared in the presence of a catalyst which promotes the urethane reaction.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 11 words
The foam of claim 1 wherein the catalyst is dibutyltin diacetate.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 14 words
The foam of claim 1 prepared in the presence of a halocarbon blowing agent.
