Abstract: The present invention relates to a compound of formula (I) or a stereoisomer, enantiomer, racemic, or tautomer thereof, formula (I) wherein r, R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, R6 and L1 have the meaning defined in the claims and the description. The present invention also relates to a process for the preparation of the compound of formula (I). The present invention also relates to a composition comprising the compound of formula (I). The present invention also relates to a polyurethane or polyurethane prepolymer obtainable by contacting at least one isocyanate with at least one compound of formula (I), or with a composition comprising a compound of formula (I). The present invention relates to the use of such polyurethane or polyurethane prepolymer, or a compound of formula (I), or a composition comprising a compound of formula (I), for the preparation of foams, adhesives, coatings, or elastomers.

Abstract: The process comprises preparing a reaction mixture from a polyisocyanate component and from a polyol component which comprises one or more polyester polyols formed from at least one dimer fatty acid and/or at least one dimer fatty alcohol. In order to improve the processability of the polyurethane flexible foams so that these foams can be produced with the desired hardness and mechanical properties over a broad density range, the isocyanate reactive compounds contain, per 100 parts by weight thereof, 25 to 95 parts by weight of said polyester polyols and 5 to 75 parts by weight of one or more polyether polyols which are free of dimer fatty chains. In this way, no lipophilic filler is needed so that the fogging and emission properties of the foam can be improved. Moreover, softer foam can be produced without having to apply a too low NCO index resulting in better mechanical properties and in particular in a lower compression set.
