Abstract

Abstract The subject invention relates to alkylene oxide adducts of aniline prepared by reacting an alkylene oxide with an aniline in the presence of preferably at least 0.1 part of alkali metal hydroxide per 100 parts by weight of aniline. The resulting compositions may be used in the preparation of polyurethane products, such as rigid polyurethane foams, and may also be used as nonionic surfactants.
