Abstract

The invention provides a polyurethane foam and associated method and article. The polyurethane foam is prepared from a reaction mixture that includes an aromatic isocyanate compound, and blowing agent, and a polyol that itself includes a poly(phenylene ether) having a number average molecular weight of 600 to 2000 atomic mass units and an average of 1.5 to 3 hydroxyl groups per molecule. Use of the poly(phenylene ether) is associated with faster formation of polyurethane, and increased compression force deflection. The polyurethane is useful for forming articles including bedding, furniture, automotive interiors, mass transportation interiors (seating, padding, instrument panels, door panels, steering wheels, armrests, and headrests), flooring underlay (foam, rebond binder), packaging, textiles, lining and gasketing applications, acoustic dampening materials, and weather stripping.

Description

Background technique [0001] Polyurethanes are prepared from compounds having at least two hydroxyl groups and compounds having at least two isocyanate groups. See, eg, D. Randall and S. Lee, "The Polyurethanes Book", New York: John Wiley & Sons, 2003; and K. Uhlig, "Discovering Polyurethanes", New York: Hanser Gardner, 1999. The isocyanate group of the isocyanate compound reacts with the hydroxyl group of the hydroxy compound to form a urethane bond. In many cases, the hydroxyl compound is a low molecular weight polyether or polyester. The isocyanate compound can be aliphatic or aromatic, and is generally difunctional (ie, it is a diisocyanate) in the preparation of linear polyurethanes. However, isocyanate compounds with greater functionality are used in the preparation of thermoset polyurethanes. The family of polyurethane resins is very complex because of the large variety of compositional characteristics of hydroxyl compounds and isocyanate compounds. This diversity re...
