Abstract
Abstract There is provided a method of producing an open-cell polyurethane foam comprising heating a mixture of an aqueous emulsion of a polyurethane-forming composition and a fluorocarbon compound of 1 to 3 carbon atoms having a boiling point of 5 DEG to 100 DEG C. The above emulsion may further contain an ionic surfactant.
