Said polyol providing said improved properties is a poly(oxybutyleneoxyethylene) glycol having a molecular weight range of about 2,000-6,000. The polyurethane elastomer is prepared by injecting the above three agents through a RIM head into a mold cavity of the desired configuration. Reaction injection molded elastomers are useful as molded articles of commerce including, but not limited to, vehicle body parts.Type: GrantFiled: August 25, 1980Date of Patent: November 17, 1981Assignee: Texaco Inc.Inventors: Michael Cuscurida, Richard J. G. Dominguez, Doris M. Rice

Patent number: 4260514Abstract: A polyurethane foamable composition comprising a brominated diol and three polyols is disclosed. The resulting foam formed by reacting these polyols and a diol with an isocyanate has a flame spread of 25 or less and contains a smaller quantity of halogen compounds than usually contained in polyurethane foamable compositions. This combination of polyols and flame retardant shows improved physical strengths and adhesion to primed tank substrates between temperatures of 100.degree. to 160.degree.
