[Prior Art] Conventionally, in the manufacturing method of flexible polyurethane foam using water as a blowing agent, if too much water is used, scorch tends to occur in the foam, and only a foaming reaction occurs, making it difficult for a curing reaction to occur, resulting in a good foam. is not obtained. For this purpose, by increasing the amount of amine catalyst and silicone oil used, and by heating at least one of the raw materials polyol composition, polyisocyanate, and water, scorch does not occur. A method of causing a curing reaction along with foaming has been proposed (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 57-676).

[Problem to be solved by the invention] In recent years, when manufacturing cushions for furniture and cushions for automatic use, manufacturing methods using molds have become more popular than manufacturing methods from slabs in terms of labor savings. It's here. However, when foaming and curing a mixture of a polyol composition and a polyisocyanate in a mold, the amount of amine catalyst and silicone oil used must be increased, or at least one of the raw materials polyol composition, polyisocyanate, and water must be used. Even if one type is heated and used,
Depending on the polyether polyol used, it may not be possible to obtain a foam with a clean surface, a soft surface feel, and good physical properties, and this method cannot necessarily be said to be sufficient. As a result of intensive studies to solve these problems, the inventors of the present invention found that using a specific polyether polyol, mixing the isocyanate groups and hydroxyl groups in an equivalent ratio within a certain range, and foaming and curing in a mold. The inventors have discovered that by doing this, a flexible polyurethane foam with a clean surface, soft surface feel, and good physical properties can be obtained, and the present invention has been completed.
