  • the blowing agent comprises from 50 to 100 weight percent iso-pentane.
  • a designed study of blowing agent was carried out on APP containing 26% BV, similar to the polyol in Example 2. The simplex design from the study is represented in Figure 8, and the comparative data of laboratory generated foams made with different blowing agents using Polyol A are summarized in Table III and Figures 9-11.
  • iso-pentane enriched formulation with and without water provides optimum conditions when using APP with renewable material in boardstock applications. Measured improvements when using high iso- pentane include: blowing agent efficiency (represented in Figure 9); better compressives (represented in Figure 10); and better dimensional stability (represented in Figure 11).
  • Dimethyl ester manufactured from the byproducts of 1,4-benzenedicarboxylic acid - an aromatic feedstock used to make TERATE® polyols from INVISTA S. a r.l.

  • the polyols were characterized for acidity, hydroxyl values, and viscosities at 25 0 C.
  • the total acid number (AN) and hydroxyl values (OH) were determined by using the standard titration methods. Dynamic viscosity measurements were done at 25 0 C on a Brookfield viscometer.
  • Foams presented in this application were generated via handmix preparations. Various foams were also generated from test laminations. Foam performance was monitored using procedures set forth in:
