Abstract: A polyurethane foam which is obtained by reacting an addition-polymerizable active hydrogen component comprising a compound having a group containing active hydrogen and an addition-polymerizable functional group or comprising both this compound and a compound containing at least 2.5 groups (on the average) containing active hydrogen and not containing addition-polymerizable functional groups with an organic polyisocyanate in the presence or absence of at least one auxiliary selected from the group consisting of foaming agents and additives to polymerize the addition-polymerizable functional group and simultaneously form a polyurethane, and which has a structure in which the chains formed by the addition polymerization have been cross-linked to the polyurethane chains. The polyurethane foam is useful as a rigid polyurethane foam excellent in hardness, dimensional stability, etc. and usable as a heat insulator, shock-absorbing material, synthetic wood, etc.

Abstract: A rigid foamed polyurethane molding which reduce dust-scattering in cutting and is useful to a modeling stock. Said molding is produced by curing a composition by a mechanical frothing method, said composition comprising: a polyol with a filler (c); and a slight amount of dehydrating agent (d); wherein said composition further contains 3 to 30 percent, based on the total weight of the composition, of a (poly) oxyalkylene compound (e) expressed by the general formula Z[(AO)mX]n in which “A” represents an alkylene group with two to four carbon atoms; “X” is a hydrocarbyl group or an acyl group; “m” is a value of one to one hundred; “n” is an integer of one to six; and “Z” is a residue produced by removing the active hydrogen atoms from a compound containing n active hydrogen atoms, in which at least one of Z and n X's has 5 to 20 carbon atoms.
