Definitions
- the present invention relates to the use of a Poiyethercarbonatpoiyol-containing polyol component for producing color-stable polyurethane foams.
- polyurethane foams are essentially produced from a polyol component and a polyisocyanate component.
- polyether polyols are usually used as the polyol component.
- Such polyols are readily available commercially in various embodiments in terms of their hydroxyl number or their OH functionality and the molecular weight.
- polyurethane foams produced from polyether polyols it may be disadvantageous for certain applications that the foams undergo aging phenomena after their preparation, which visually manifest themselves after only a few months by a noticeable color change. It can also be seen that, with molded components made of polyurethane foam, the color change on existing edges is considerably more pronounced, so that the color change becomes even more noticeable.
- US 2005/065225 A1 discloses UV-stable polyurethane foams. For this purpose, polyisocyanates are reacted with polycarbonate polyols.
- a polyether polyol may be used as another polyol component. The polycarbonate polyols are obtained by transesterification of carbonate esters and make from this
- the object of the present invention was to provide a way in which more color-stable polyurethane foams can be produced.
- both stable-color polyurethane rigid foams and color-stable flexible polyurethane foams should be made accessible.
- This object is achieved by using a component A for producing color-stable Polyurethananschaumsto ffe containing
- A4 0 to 10 parts by weight, based on the sum of the parts by weight of components AI and A2, of at least one antioxidant,
- A5 0 to 10 parts by weight, based on the sum of the parts by weight of components A1 and A2, additives and additives,
- polyurethane foams produced therefrom also contain relatively high amounts of carbon dioxide, which is advantageous from an environmental point of view.
- a further object of the present invention is the use of a polyol component comprising> 50 to ⁇ 100 wt .-% based on the polyol component of at least one polyether carbonate polyol AI having a hydroxyl number according to DI 53240 of> 20 mg KOH / g to ⁇ 300 mg KOH / g for producing color-stable polyurethane foams.
- the polyol component for producing the polyurethane chaumsto ffe consist exclusively of the aforementioned polyether carbonate polyol AI, with the remainder other organic polyols are used than those falling under the definition of the polyether carbonate polyol AI.
- polyethercarbonate polyols having a hydroxy number according to DIN 53240 over a range of> 20 mg KOH / g to ⁇ 300 mg KOH / g makes it possible to adapt the hardness of the foams produced to the respective requirement profile.
- polyurethane rigid foams as well as flexible polyurethane foams can be produced.
- a viscoelastic polyurethane foam or flexible polyurethane foam is understood as meaning a foam which has a low ball rebound elasticity according to DIN EN ISO 8307: 2007. Thereafter, a ball of defined height is dropped onto a scraper and the height to which the ball jumps up against the direction of fall is measured. The springback height is set in percentage relation to the fall height. A low percentage means a low resiliency.
- the ball does not jump measurably high after the impact, which means that the ball rebound resilience is 0%; in an advantageous embodiment of the method according to the invention, a viscoelastic polyurethane foam or flexible polyurethane foam is obtained which has a ball rebound resilience according to DIN EN ISO 8307: 2007 from 0% to 20%, in particular from 0% to 15%, preferably 0% to 10% or even 0% to 8%. Also preferred are polyurethane foams or flexible polyurethane foams with a ball-rebound resilience according to DIN EN ISO 8307: 2007 of 2% to 20%, in particular from 2% to 15%.
- a color-stable polyurethane foam is understood in particular to mean that the color-stable polyurethane foam in the form of a rectangular or square specimen on the center of at least one of its flat sides causes a shift of at least 5 ° in the color angle in the HSI model after storage for a period of 90 days at 20 ° ° C and 40% rel.
- Humidity as a reference polyurethane foam which is prepared and stored in the same manner as the color-stable polyurethane foam, wherein the reference polyurethane foam differs from the color-stable polyurethane foam only in that for its preparation instead of the polyethercarbonate polyol AI a largely identical amount of a polyether polyol is used without carbonate units but with largely the same hydroxyl number according to DIN 53240.
- the rectangular or square specimen should not have a side edge shorter than 0.5 cm, since the aging phenomena are greatest at the edges and thus an evaluation of the color change of the main (pool) is difficult on the center of at least one of its flat sides a shift of the Desirb angle in the HSI model by at least 8 ° smaller than the specimen from the reference Poiyurethanschaum on, in particular at least 10 ° or at least 15 ° ..
- the color angle is determined by using a digital camera (Sony DSC-R I) to photograph the respective specimen lying on a white sheet of paper, perform a white balance against the white sheet of paper, and then adjust the hue as the color angle from the HSI model recorded using image analysis software (AnalySIS).
- This measurement is carried out in each case with a color-stable polyurethane foam produced according to the invention after the aforementioned aging and a reference polyurethane foam aged in the same way.
- the determined color angles of the color-stable polyurethane foam and of the reference polyurethane foam are subtracted from one another and thus provide the invention by at least 5 ° lower displacement of the color angle in the color-stable polyurethane foam.
- the color-stable polyurethane foam produced according to the invention and the reference polyurethane foam differ only in that in the reference polyurethane foam a largely identical amount of a Poiyetherpolyois without carbonate units but with the same hydroxyl number according to DIN 53240 instead of the Polyethercarbonatpolyols AI is used.

Details of processing equipment which also come into question according to the invention, in Plastics Handbook, Volume VII, published by Vieweg and Höchtlen, Carl Hanser Verlag, Kunststoff 1993, for example, on pages 139 to 265 described.
- component A with a component B is used for the preparation of the color-stable polyurethane foams
- the polyurethane foams produced by the process according to the invention can be produced as molds or as slab foams, preferably as bio-cushions.
- a further object of the present invention is the use of the inventive color-stable polyurethane foams for the production of moldings and the moldings themselves.
- a particularly preferred polyurethane foam or flexible polyurethane foam which is obtainable by the process according to the invention, is one for whose preparation a polyether carbonate polyol A 1 having a hydroxyl number according to DIN 53240 of> 250 mg KOH / g to ⁇ 300 mg KOH / g is used.
- a polyurethane foam or flexible polyurethane foam in addition to the good color stability is characterized by particularly good viscoelastic properties, ie a particularly low ball-rebound resilience according to DIN EN ISO 8307: 2007.
- the polyethercarbonate polyol Al used in particular has an average OH functionality of 2.3 to 3.5, in particular from 2.5 to 3.3. preferably from 2.7 to 3.1, more preferably from 2.8 to 3.0.
- the indefinite term “a” generally stands for “at least one” in the sense of “one or more.” The person skilled in the art understands, depending on the situation, that not the indefinite article but the specific article “a” in the sense of “1” is meant or the indefinite article “a” also includes, in one embodiment, the particular article “a” (1).
- Component AI The components used in the process according to the invention are described in more detail below.
- Component AI comprises a polyethercarbonate polyol having a hydroxyl number (OH number) according to DI 53240 of> 20 mg KOH / g to ⁇ 300 mg KOH / g, preferably from> 24 mg KOH / g to ⁇ 280 mg KOH / g, more preferably from> 40 mg KOH / g to ⁇ 280 mg KOH / g.

The specimens thus produced were then over a period of 90 days at 20 ° C and 40% rel. Humidity stored in a laboratory under daylight conditions on one of its flat sides. The flat pages are labeled page 1 (top) and page 2 (bottom). Pages 3 to 5 correspond to three side surfaces. The fourth side surface was not measured in each case since the samples were labeled on it.
- the sample V2 according to the invention was turned at regular intervals from one to the other flat side, so that the two flat sides were exposed to daylight for about the same amount of time. Samples VI, V3 and V4 were not turned.
- the blank value after storage was determined by cutting the specimens in the center after measuring the outside and determining the color value at the center of the cut surface. Since the center of the specimen was exposed neither to the light nor directly to the air, this value can be used as a comparison of how much the foams have changed color since their preparation. Subsequently, the specimens were subjected to the aforementioned color angle determination. The results are shown in Tables 2 and 3 below and in Figs. 1 and 2 summarized:
- Table 3 Determination of the shift of the color angle in comparison between the inventive and the comparative samples. For the Faxb angles lower values indicate an increasing color change of the foams, here a yellowing, that is a shift from greenish (120 °) to yellow (90 °) shades.
- the freshly produced foams have essentially the same greenish starting color, ie they are in the range of about 100 to 120 °.
