Abstract

Abstract A stable high-resilient (HR) flexible polyurethane foam may be made from an MDI type isocyanate, a polyether polyol and an amount of diethanolamine in an amount effective for preventing splits in the finished foam. The foams disclosed herein use water as the blowing agent. The disclosed foams have excellent properties and process without splitting.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 3
Claim 1
Independent Claim 78 words
In a process of preventing splits in high-resilient, flexible polyurethane foam which is the reaction product of a polyether triol of about 5000 to 7000 molecular weight and a methylene diphenyl diisocyanate modified to assume a liquid form and in the presence of water as the only blowing agent, the improvement which comprises reacting the components in the presence of from about 0.2 to about 2.0 parts by weight of diethanolamine per 100 parts by weight of triol.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 78 words
In a process of preventing splits in high-resilient, flexible polyurethane foam which is the reaction product of a polyether triol of about 5000 to 7000 molecular weight and a methylene diphenyl diisocyanate modified to assume a liquid form and in the presence of water as the only blowing agent, the improvement which comprises reacting the components in the presence of from about 0.2 to about 2.0 parts by weight of diethanolamine per 100 parts by weight of triol.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 17 words
A process as in claim 1 wherein the polyether triol has a molecular weight of about 5500.
