Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim
46 words
A process for the preparation of foams characterized by carbodiimide and isocyanurate linkages comprising catalytically condensing an organic polyisocyanate in the presence of a catalytically sufficient amount of (a) a compound which promotes the carbodiimide reaction and (b) a C 1 -C 8 alkali metal carboxylate.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
46 words
A process for the preparation of foams characterized by carbodiimide and isocyanurate linkages comprising catalytically condensing an organic polyisocyanate in the presence of a catalytically sufficient amount of (a) a compound which promotes the carbodiimide reaction and (b) a C 1 -C 8 alkali metal carboxylate.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
10 words
The process of claim 1 wherein (b) is potassium acetate.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
10 words
The process of claim 1 wherein (b) is potassium formate.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
10 words
The process of claim 1 wherein (b) is potassium 2-ethylhexanoate.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
27 words
The process of claim 1 wherein the organic polyisocyanate is selected from the group consisting of toluene diisocyanate, methylene diphenyl diisocyanate, polyphenyl polymethylene polyisocyanate and mixtures thereof.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
14 words
