Polyurethane foams are prepared by reacting an organic polyisocyanate with an organic compound containing two or more reactive hydrogen atoms capable of reacting with isocyanate groups, in the presence of a catalyst, blowing agent and one or more cell modifying agents, at least one of which is a high M.W. emulsifying agent which is soluble or dispersible in mineral oil but substantially insoluble in water, which produces heat-stable emulsions of the water-in-oil type and which has emulsifying properties such that upon subjecting 20 c.c. of a 0À5% solution of said emulsifying agent in a mineral oil of a viscosity of 1-5‹ Engler at 20‹ C. to a steam emulsion test (No. D157-36 in A.S.T.M. Standards 1946, Part IIIA, page 174), the time for separating 5 c.c. of one of the phases of the emulsion at 93‹ to 95‹ C. is at least 20 minutes. The emulsifying agents suitably contain ester or ether groups, residues of oleophilic components containing at least 8 carbon atoms and at least one residue of a polyhydric alcohol and/or a polybasic acid, have a M.W. of 1000 to 10,000, a hydroxyl no. of 15 to 150 and an acid no. of 0 to 50 and contain per molecule at least 2 oleophilic groups with at least 21 carbon atoms or 3 oleophilic groups with at least 17 carbon atoms or 4 oleophilic groups with at least 14 carbon atoms or 5 oleophilic groups with at least 12 carbon atoms or 8 oleophilic groups with at least 8 carbon atoms. More particularly the emulsifying agents may be (1) an esterification product of a substance capable of reacting as a polyhydric alcohol, a substance capable of reacting as a higher fatty acid and a substance capable of reacting as a polybasic acid, suitably the alcohols, fatty acids and polybasic acids themselves or wherein the polyhydric alcohol and fatty acid are present in the form of a partial or complete ester of the two or wherein the polybasic acid reacting compound is a polycarboxylic acid anhydride, organic polyisocyanate or phosphorus oxychloride, (2) an etherification product of a polyepoxide, polyhalohydrin or epihalohydrin having a M.W. not exceeding 400 and at least one oleophilic component having at least 8 carbon atoms selected from aliphatic and alicyclic alcohols or aliphatic or alicyclic epoxides or (3) polymerization products of the heating of fatty oils. Typical specific examples of the above three classes of emulsifying agent are (a) the reaction product of sorbitol, oleic acid and fumaric acid, (b) the reaction product of the polyglycidyl ether of glycerol and erucyl alcohol, and (c) polymerized soya oil. The other ingredients of the reaction mixture are those conventionally used, e.g. aromatic diisocyanate, polyether and polyester polyols, tertiary amine and organo-tin catalysts and water or volatile halogenated hydrocarbons as blowing agents.</p> |
