POLYETHER POLYOL FORMULATIONS FOR HARD CFC REPLACEMENT BY WATER BLOWING IN RIGID POLYURETHANE FOAMS

摘要

Rigid closed-cell polyisocyanate-based foams are prepared by the reaction of polyisocyanate with a polyol composition having an average hydroxyl number of 100 to 500 and comprising at least one polyol component containing from 4 to 8 active hydrogen atoms per molecule and having a hydroxyl number of from 100 to 500. The blowing of the foam is essentially with carbon dioxide generated from the reaction of water with polyisocyanate so as to provide foams of the desired density containing at least 40 mole percent carbon dioxide in their cells. 37,095-F
