Abstract
Abstract An impregnant which is suitable for being applied to a once produced open-cellular, soft resin foam to change its physical properties to a desired extent depending on the purpose in end use, the impregnant comprising an isocyanate selected from 4.4'-diphenylmethanediisocyanate, tolylenediisocyanate or a mixture thereof admixed with a polyurethane prepolymer obtained by reacting an isocyanate selected from tolylenediisocyanate, 4.4'-diphenylmethanediisocyanate or a mixture thereof with a polyol, and optionally a solvent for the mixture in suitable amounts.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 22
Claim 1
Independent Claim
158 words
An impregnant for converting a soft resin foam of open cells to a semi-rigid or rigid resin foam consisting essentially of an isocyanate selected from the group consisting of 4.4'-diphenyl-methanediisocyanate, tolylenediisocyanate and a mixture thereof, and a polyurethane prepolymer obtained by reacting an isocyanate selected from the group consisting of tolylenediisocyanate, 4.4'-diphenylmethanediisocyanate and a mixture thereof with a polyol having a molecular weight of about 1500-4000 and 2-4 functional groups in such proportions that the content of NCO groups in the prepolymer is in the range of below 15%, and wherein the mixing ratio of the first-mentioned isocyanate to the prepolymer is in the range of 1:9 to 9:1 and an organic inert solvent mixed therewith, said solvent selected from the group consisting of aromatic hydrocarbons, aliphatic hydrocarbons, chlorinated hydrocarbons, esters of hydrocarbons and ketones of hydrocarbons, said organic inert solvent being mixed in such a manner that the viscosity of the thus-diluted impregnant is below 500 cps.
