Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 16
Claim 1
Independent Claim 126 words
A polyurethane composition, castings of which have high strength, characterized in that said composition is one resulting from the reaction of a polyisocyanate with a blend of polyether polyols, wherein a major portion of said blend comprises polyether polyols selected from the group consisting of those having a hydroxyl number of 400 to 1000 and a functionality of 3-4, and a portion, effective to improve substantially the strength of said polyurethane composition, of said blend comprises a graft polyol which is liquid and pourable at ambient temperature and is a product of the free-radical-catalyzed polymerization of at least one ethylenically unsaturated monomer with a polyol which contains carbon-carbon unsaturation and oxyalkylene moieties and which has an average molecular weight on the order of 300 to 10,000.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 126 words
A polyurethane composition, castings of which have high strength, characterized in that said composition is one resulting from the reaction of a polyisocyanate with a blend of polyether polyols, wherein a major portion of said blend comprises polyether polyols selected from the group consisting of those having a hydroxyl number of 400 to 1000 and a functionality of 3-4, and a portion, effective to improve substantially the strength of said polyurethane composition, of said blend comprises a graft polyol which is liquid and pourable at ambient temperature and is a product of the free-radical-catalyzed polymerization of at least one ethylenically unsaturated monomer with a polyol which contains carbon-carbon unsaturation and oxyalkylene moieties and which has an average molecular weight on the order of 300 to 10,000.
