SILICONE SURFACTANT FOR USE IN POLYURETHANE FOAMS PREPARED USING VEGETABLE OIL BASED POLYOLS

摘要

Silicone surfactants for use in polyurethane foams prepared using natural oils based polyols comprise silicone copolymers possessing alkyl and polyalkylene oxide polyether pendants. The silicone surfactants yield foams having improved physical properties as compared to other surfactant compositions when used in vegetable oil based urethane foams.
