POLYURETHANE FOAMS

摘要

Polyurethane Foams A method for the preparation of shape memory polyurethane foams by reacting a polyisocyanate component and a polyol composition in the presence of a foaming agent comprising water wherein the polyisocyanate component contains at least 70% by weight of 4,4'-diphenylmethane diisocyanate or a variant thereof and the polyol composition comprises at least one polyoxyalkylene polyol containing oxyethylene residues, said polyol composition having an average nominal hydroxyl functionality of from 2.2 to 6, an average oxyethylene content of at least 86% by weight and an average hydroxyl equivalent weight from 250 to 1500 and wherein the amount of water is 1.5-6% by weight based on the weight of the polyol composition and wherein the isocyanate index is 90-150.
