  • (ILD) was 40 N / 314 cm 2 or more, the workability was good, and hot press molding was also possible.
  • it was low density, air permeability, mechanical characteristics (tensile strength, elongation, tear strength, hysteresis loss rate), and durability were also good.
  • Examples 1, 2, 4 to 6, 8 to 9, 11 to 13, 17, and 20 to 21 had a 25% hardness (ILD) of 50 N / 314 cm 2 or more and excellent workability.
  • Example 20 the workability is good when the 25% hardness (ILD) is 50 N / 314 cm 2 or more.
  • Hot press molding is also possible. In Example 20, hot press molding was performed at 160 ° C., but in Example 21, hot press molding was performed at 200 ° C., so that the maximum thickness d after hot pressing approached 5 mm, and the hot press moldability was improved.
  • Example 20 and Example 21 are compared with Example 2, the difference is the average hydroxyl value of the polyol (A) in the polyol mixture (X). In Example 2, the average hydroxyl value of the polyol (A) is smaller than those in Examples 20 and 21.
  • Example 2 the polyol (A1) having a large molecular weight was used, and the hot press moldability at a low temperature (160 ° C.) was good even with an isocyanate index of 100. It is more preferable that hot press molding at a low temperature is possible because a load is not applied to the flexible foam.
  • Examples 22 to 24 are examples in which the polyol mixture (X) does not contain the monool (D).
  • hot press molding was performed at 160 ° C., but it was hard and had poor hot press moldability.
  • hot press molding was performed at 200 ° C., but the hot press moldability was also poor.
  • the isocyanate index was less than 90, and when the polyol mixture (X) did not contain the monool (D), it was confirmed that the workability and the hot press moldability were poor.

Abstract

L'invention concerne une mousse de polyuréthane flexible sur laquelle un moulage par presse à chaud peut être efficacement mis en œuvre et qui a une fermeté suffisante et une excellente aptitude au traitement pendant la découpe. La mousse de polyuréthane flexible pour moulage par presse à chaud est produite en faisant réagir un mélange de polyols (X) et un composé isocyanate en présence d'un catalyseur d'uréthanation, d'un agent de moussage, et d'un stabilisant de mousse. Le mélange de polyols (X) comprend : un polyoxyalkylène polyol (A) dans lequel le nombre moyen de groupes hydroxyle est de 2 à 3, l'indice d'hydroxyle est de 5 à 90 mg de KOH/g et la teneur en groupes oxyéthylène est de 0 à 30 % en masse; un polyoxyalkylène polyol (B) dans lequel le nombre moyen de groupes hydroxyle est de 2 à 3 et l'indice d'hydroxyle est de 100 à 250 mg de KOH/g; et un polyoxyalkylène mono-ol (D) dans lequel l'indice d'hydroxyle est de 10 à 200 mg de KOH/g. La quantité de composé polyisocyanate utilisé est de 90 ou plus sur l'indice d'isocyanate.
