Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A polyurethane foam article comprises a first lift, a second lift, and a pass-line therebetween. The polyurethane foam article comprises the reaction product of an isocyanate-reactive resin composition, an isocyanate, and an indicator dye in the presence of a blowing agent. The indicator dye imparts a color in the first and second lifts and at the pass-line at a first temperature below a decomposition temperature of the indicator dye. The indicator dye chemically decomposes to impart a change in color in the first and second lifts and at the pass-line at a second temperature which is at or above the decomposition temperature of the indicator dye.
