Abstract

Abstract The oxidation promoting harmful effects of the presence of an alkaline catalyst in a polyoxyalkylene can be eliminated and the product made more resistant to oxidation especially at elevated temperatures by the incorporation therein of soluble salts of certain benzoic acid derivatives. The soluble salts can be formed by reaction with the alkali or alkaline earth metal ion derived from the alkaline catalyst utilized in the polymerization of the polyoxyalkylene.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim 131 words
A polyurethane comprising the reaction product of at least one organic polyisocyanate with an organic compound containing at least two active hydrogen atoms as determined by the Zerewitinoff Method wherein said organic compound comprises at least one polyoxyalkylene containing an effective oxidation inhibiting amount of an alkali or alkaline earth metal salt of at least one acid having the formulas: ##STR2## wherein R 1 is selected from the group consisting of alkyl or alkenyl of up to 6 carbon atoms; R 2 is individually selected from alkyl or alkenyl groups having up to 18 carbon atoms, nitro, benzoyl, halogen, carboxy groups or OR 3 wherein R 3 is hydroxyalkyl having up to 4 carbon atoms, an alkyl or alkenyl ester group having up to 18 carbon atoms, and X is carbon.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 131 words
A polyurethane comprising the reaction product of at least one organic polyisocyanate with an organic compound containing at least two active hydrogen atoms as determined by the Zerewitinoff Method wherein said organic compound comprises at least one polyoxyalkylene containing an effective oxidation inhibiting amount of an alkali or alkaline earth metal salt of at least one acid having the formulas: ##STR2## wherein R 1 is selected from the group consisting of alkyl or alkenyl of up to 6 carbon atoms; R 2 is individually selected from alkyl or alkenyl groups having up to 18 carbon atoms, nitro, benzoyl, halogen, carboxy groups or OR 3 wherein R 3 is hydroxyalkyl having up to 4 carbon atoms, an alkyl or alkenyl ester group having up to 18 carbon atoms, and X is carbon.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 75 words
The composition of claim 1 wherein said polyoxyalkylene comprises the reaction product derived from at least one alkylene oxide having up to 4 carbon atoms selected from the group consisting of ethylene oxide, 1,2-propylene oxide, butylene oxide and tetrahydrofuran prepared by polymerizing at least one of said oxides in the presence of an alkaline catalyst selected from the group consisting of at least one of an alkali metal hydroxide and an alkaline earth metal hydroxide.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 55 words
The composition of claim 2 wherein said polyoxyalkylene is derived from the reaction of 1,2-propylene oxide with an initiator selected from the group consisting of at least one of trimethylolpropane, pentaerythritol, ethylene glycol, propylene glycol and wherein said polyoxyalkylene has a molecular weight of about 400 to about 12,500 and said acid is 3,4,5-trimethoxybenzoic acid.
