Abstract: This disclosure provides for new low density, open cell polyurethane (PUR) foams, which can be prepared using a combination of precursors and conditions, for example, an off-ratio A-side:B-side volume ratio (v:v) which includes a higher volume of A-side than the volume of B-side, an aromatic polyisocyanate component having an isocyanate functionality of from about 2.5 to about 3.0, and an Isocyanate Index of from about 20 percent to about 40 percent. Using the processes and precursors disclosed herein, polyurethane foams having a density of from about 0.25 lb/ft3 to about 0.45 lb/ft3 can be obtained.

Abstract: This disclosure provides for new polyisocyanurate (PIR) foams that exhibit improved flame retardant properties and thermal barrier properties, and which can pass certain thermal barrier tests in the absence of a protective covering such as specified in the thermal barriers codes. In an aspect, it has been unexpectedly discovered that when a relatively high viscosity and high functionality polyisocyanate is used with a high aromatic content polyester polyol and an HFO and/or HCFO blowing agent, and a flame retardant compound, unexpectedly good flame retardant polyisocyanurate foams can be generated, for example, when a high A-side:B-side volume ratio (v:v) and a relatively high Isocyanate Index (ISO Index) are used in the process.

Abstract: Polyurethane foams are described, as well as the production of such polyurethane foams by the reaction between a natural polyol, such as sucrose or a blend of mono- or disaccharides in place of the standard hydrocarbon-based polyol component, an ionic liquid or a deep eutectic solvent, a polyisocyanate and water in the presence of a suitable polyurethane forming catalyst and optionally a flame retardant, and optionally one or more components such as surfactants and/or emulsifiers. The resultant polyurethane foam can exhibit a bio-based solid content ranging from about 17% to 30%, may be formulated in a variety of foam densities for a variety of applications, and in the instance where a flame retardant has been added in an appropriate amount, exhibits a high degree of fire and burn resistance, as exhibited by the flame spread index and/or the smoke spread values.

Abstract: Asphalt or bitumen compositions are effectively stabilized against the deleterious effects of heat, light and oxygen, via the incorporation therein of an effective stabilizing amount of one or more sterically hindered amine compounds. The sterically hindered amines are macrocyclic, thermally stable, insoluble in water and have very low vapor pressure. The sterically hindered amines are for instance the cyclic condenstates of N,N?-bis(2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-piperidyl)-hexamethylenediamine and 4-tert-octylamino-2,6-dichloro-1,3,5-triazine, of N,N?-bis(2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-piperidyl)-hexamethylenediamine and 4-cyclohexylamino-2,6-dichloro-1 ,3, 5-triazine, or of N,N?-bis-(2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-piperidyl)hexamethylenediamine and 4-morpholino-2,6-dichloro-1,3,5-triazine. Synthetic rubber modified asphalt or bitumen may also be stabilized via incorporation of these hindered amines.
