Abstract

Abstract Polyol-catalyst mixtures, useful in the preparation of rigid polyurethane cellular products, are prepared simultaneously by reacting a Mannich base compound, water, and an epoxide and subsequently removing the water from the reaction mixture. Also provided are new rigid polyurethane cellular products having a high content of isocyanurate linkages, superior heat distortion temperatures and improved insulating properties, which products are obtained by reacting a polyisocyanate with the aforementioned polyol-catalyst mixture.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim 60 words
A process for preparing cellular polyurethane products by reacting the polyol-catalyst mixture prepared by a process which comprises heating a Mannich base compound with water and an epoxide and subsequently removing the water from the reaction mixture, said Mannich based compound being the reaction product of a phenol, an alkanolamine and formaldehyde with a polyisocyanate and a volatile blowing agent.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 60 words
A process for preparing cellular polyurethane products by reacting the polyol-catalyst mixture prepared by a process which comprises heating a Mannich base compound with water and an epoxide and subsequently removing the water from the reaction mixture, said Mannich based compound being the reaction product of a phenol, an alkanolamine and formaldehyde with a polyisocyanate and a volatile blowing agent.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 19 words
A process as in claim 1 wherein the reaction mixture also contains a foam stabilizer, flame retardant and filler.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 20 words
A process as in claim 1 wherein the polyisocyanate is an aromatic polyisocyanate having from 2 to 6 isocyanate groups.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 18 words
A process as in claim 1 wherein the polyisocyanate equivalents to polyol equivalents vary from 1:1 to 8:1.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 14 words
A process as in claim 1 wherein the polyisocyanate is a methylene-bridged polyphenyl polyisocyanate.
