Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The present invention is directed towards a method of stabilizing thermosetting foam blends such as polyurethane poly blends containing a blowing agent with negligible (low or zero) ozone-depletion and low GWP based upon unsaturated halogenated hydroolefins in which one or more ester is added to the thermosetting foam blends. The thermosetting foam blends typically in clued: polyol(s); surfactant(s); catalyst(s); flame retardent(s); organic acid inhibitor(s)/stabilizer(s); carbon dioxide generating agent(s). The addition of the one or more esters to the thermosetting foam blends was unexpectedly found to result in blends which were stable over time and the resulted foams have a uniform cell structure with little or no foam collapse.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A method of stabilizing a thermosetting foam blend premix containing a foam forming agent and a blowing agent comprising 1-chloro-3,3,3-trifluoropropene, comprising adding thereto methyl formate. 2. The method of claim 1 wherein said thermosetting foam blend further contains a surfactant, a catalyst, a flame retardent, a stabilizer/inhibitor and a carbon dioxide generating agent. 3. The method of claim 1 wherein said thermosetting foam blend premix is selected from the group consisting of polyurethane foam premixes, polyisocyanurate foam premixes, and phenolic foam premixes.
