[0140] (Preparation process of polyoxyalkylene polyether polyol)

[0141] The polyoxyalkylene polyether polyols used in the present invention are prepared by well-known production processes. In the presence of a catalyst, the polyoxyalkylene polyether polyol is prepared by performing ring-opening polymerization on the above-mentioned alkylene oxide by using the above-mentioned active hydride as an initiator.

[0142] For example, the process of producing polyoxyalkylene polyether polyols includes the process of addition polymerization of alkylene oxides with active hydrides as initiators under high pressure and in the presence of polymerization catalysts. Active hydrides and alkylene oxides may be used alone or in combination.

[0143] It is desirable to obtain polyoxyalkylene polyether polyols with a total unsaturation of less than 0.06 meq / g, preferably less than 0.04 meq / g, more preferably between 0.005 and 0.030 meq / g, especially preferably between 0.005 and 0.026 betwee...

[0179]

[0180] The polyoxyalkylene polyether polyols included in polyols (a), (b) and (c) used in Example 2 were prepared as oligomers or polymers by ring-opening polymerization using active hydrides as initiators .

[0181] (active hydride used in Example 2)

[0182] The active hydride used as the initiator for the preparation of the polyoxyalkylene polyether polyol may be, for example, an active hydride containing an active hydrogen atom on an oxygen atom or an active hydride containing an active hydrogen atom on a nitrogen atom.

[0183] Examples of active hydrides containing active hydrogen atoms on oxygen atoms include the corresponding hydrides mentioned above.

[0184] Examples of active hydrides containing active hydrogen atoms on nitrogen atoms include the corresponding hydrides mentioned above.

[0185] Among these hydrides, preferably used hydrides such as polyhydric alcohols, sugars and their derivatives, more preferably the following active hydrides 1,2-ethyl...

Abstract

The present invention relates to a process for producing soft polyurethane foam, comprising in the same production equipment, contacting, at least, a polyol and a polyisocyanate with a blowing agent to produce a soft polyurethane foam having a variety of physical properties, wherein the polyisocyanate contains tolylene diisocyanate, the polyol is substantially two or three kinds of polyol wherein at least two kinds are selected from the polyols obtained from three kinds of polyoxyalkylene polyether polyol having a total unsaturation of less than 0.06 meg / q and from three kinds of polymers polyols of polyoxyalkylene polyether polyol having a total unsaturation of less than 0.06 meg / q. By varying the proportion of the two or three kinds of polyols, polyisocyanate and blowing agent, a soft polyisocyanate foam having the desired properties can be produced. Especially, by using a polyisocyanate containing 20% by weight or more of tolylene diisocyanate, the core density of the soft polyisocyanate foam can be varied with the range of from 20 kg / m<3> to 70 kg / m<3> and the hardness at 25% ILD can be varied with the range of from 50 N / 314 cm<2> to 400 N / 314 cm<2>.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a method and equipment for producing soft polyurethane foam. More specifically, the present invention relates to a method for producing soft polyurethane foams in which various soft polyurethane foams having characteristics such as hardness and density values ​​over a wide range can be combined in a simple manner by using a single production facility of two or more It is produced by suitable mixing of two different types of polyols, and the invention also relates to equipment for this process. Background technique [0002] Soft polyurethane foam has suitable cushioning properties, so it is widely used in automobiles (such as car seats, etc.), furniture (such as mattresses, etc.) and miscellaneous items, etc., so soft polyurethane foams are required to have different characteristics according to their different uses or shape. Furthermore, even if they are used in seat seats or mattresses, they are required to have diff...
