Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 12
Claim 1
Independent Claim
79 words
In a polyurethane foam prepared from a polyisocyanate, a polyol, and a foaming agent, the improvement which comprises incorporating therein prior to foaming an amount sufficient to improve the resultant foam of a melamine polyol of the formula ##STR2## wherein each R is NH 2 , an alkyl (C 2 -C 12 ) amine, or a hydroxyalkyl (C 2 -C 4 ) substituted amine and there is an average at least about one hydroxy group per melamine polyol molecule.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
79 words
In a polyurethane foam prepared from a polyisocyanate, a polyol, and a foaming agent, the improvement which comprises incorporating therein prior to foaming an amount sufficient to improve the resultant foam of a melamine polyol of the formula ##STR2## wherein each R is NH 2 , an alkyl (C 2 -C 12 ) amine, or a hydroxyalkyl (C 2 -C 4 ) substituted amine and there is an average at least about one hydroxy group per melamine polyol molecule.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
29 words
The polyurethane foam of claim 1 wherein the amount of melamine polyol present is about 1 to 40%, by weight, based on the total weight of the reaction mixture.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
29 words
The polyurethane foam of claim 1 wherein the amount of melamine polyol present is about 1.5 to 15%, by weight, based on the total weight of the reaction mixture.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
47 words
The polyurethane foam of claim 1 further containing a catalyst selected from the group consisting of N-methyl morpholine, 4,4'-dithiomorpholine, antimony caprylate, antimony naphenate, antimonious chloride, dibutyltin dilaurate, tri-n-octyltin oxide, hexabutyltin, tributyltin phosphate, stannic chloride, tetramethylethylenediamine, triethylenediamine, dimethylaminoethanol, bis(dimethylaminoethyl)ether, triethylamine, trimethylamine, diethylene triamine, tetramethyl butane diamine and dimethylcyclohexylamine.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
33 words
The polyurethane foam of claims 1 or 2 wherein on average at least about 1.8 of the R groups per molecule are NHCH 2 CH(OH)CH 3 and the remainder are NH 2 .
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
33 words
The polyurethane foam of claims 1 or 2 wherein on average about 2.4 to 2.8 of the R groups per molecule are NHCH 2 CH(OH)CH 3 and the remainder are NH 2 .
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
25 words
The polyurethane foam of claims 1 or 2 wherein at least one R is NHCH 2 CH 2 OH or NHCH 2 CH(OH)CH 3 .
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
13 words
The polyurethane foam of claim 1 wherein the polyol is a polyether polyol.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
17 words
The polyurethane foam of claim 1 wherein the polyisocyanate is one or more isomers of toluene diisocyanate.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim
13 words
The polyurethane foam of claim 1 wherein the polyisocyanate is polymethylene polyphenyl isocyanate.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim
34 words
The polyurethane foam of claim 1 wherein the polyisocyanate and at least a portion of the polyol or melamine polyol are reacted to form a prepolymer prior to the addition of the foaming agent.
