  • Patent number: 8877825
    Abstract: To provide a catalyst composition which is a catalyst composition not impairing the physical properties of a polyurethane resin and the storage stability of the starting material blend liquid and which is capable of producing a polyurethane resin excellent in curability and also excellent in moldability by suppressing the initial reactivity, with good productivity.

  • Publication number: 20100222444
    Abstract: A catalyst for polyurethane production is provided which is non-corrosive and exhibits effective delay of catalyst action. The catalyst comprises a mixture of a tertiary amine, and a saturated dicarboxylic acid represented by General Formula: HOOC—(CH2)n—COOH where n is an integer of from 2 to 14.

  • Publication number: 20100130629
    Abstract: Disclosed is a catalyst composition for polyurethane resin production which contains (A) triethylenediamine, (B) a specific polyisocyanurating catalyst and/or (C) a specific highly temperature-sensitive catalyst. By using this catalyst composition, a polyurethane resin can be molded with good curability, while suppressing initial reactivity. Consequently, a polyurethane resin having excellent moldability and fluidity can be produced with high productivity by using the catalyst composition. The thus-obtained polyurethane resin is suitably applicable to shoe soles. The component (B) is selected from the group consisting of alkali metal salts of carboxylic acids, quaternary ammonium compounds expressed as R1R2R3R4N+,X?, N,N,N?-trimethylaminoethylethanolamine, and 2,4,6-tris(dimethylaminomethyl)phenol, while the component (C) is selected from the group consisting of triazole salts and benzotriazole salts of 1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undecene-7 or 1,5-diazabicyclo[4.3.0]nonene-5.

  • Patent number: 7572837
    Abstract: Flexible polyurethane foams are produced by reacting a polyol and a polyisocyanate in the presence of a catalysts and other auxiliary agents, the process characterized in that a tin-based catalyst is not used. One process includes reacting a polyether polyol containing at least 5% by weight of an oxyethylene group in the chain and having a terminal secondary OH group, a toluene diisocyanate and/or a derivative, and one or more specified imidazole compounds, the process conducted in the absence of a tin-based catalyst.
