  • the present invention relates to polyurethane foam and shoe insoles, and more specifically to polyurethane foam with high resilience and excellent flexibility, and shoe insoles using the same.
  • Polyurethane is a polymeric compound that has a urethane bond (-NH-C(O)O-).
  • Polyurethane is generally obtained by reacting the hydroxyl group (-OH) of a polyol with the isocyanate group (-NCO) of a polyisocyanate. It is known that polyurethane can exhibit a wide variety of properties by optimizing the type of polyol and/or polyisocyanate. For this reason, polyurethane is used in a variety of automobile parts, synthetic leather, paints, adhesives, and more.
  • Polyurethane foam which is made by expanding polyurethane, is also used in insulation and cushioning materials.
  • High-resilience polyurethane foam Polyurethane foam with enhanced resilience is also known as "high-resilience polyurethane foam.” High-resilience polyurethane foam has strong restoring power and does not easily become worn out, so it is used in apparel, sports equipment, toys, bedding, interior decoration, and more.

  • the document states that by such a method, (A) There is little odor problem. (B) the foam density is 26 kg/ m3 ; (C) a tensile strength of 21 N/ cm2 (0.21 MPa); (D) It is described that a polyurethane foam having an elongation of 18% can be obtained.
  • the problem that this invention aims to solve is to provide a polyurethane foam with high resilience and excellent flexibility, and a shoe insole using the same.
  • the polyurethane foam according to the present invention comprises: The impact resilience is 40% or more, The elongation is 200% or more, The compression set is 20% or less, The density is 150 kg/m3 or more and 800 kg/m3 or less.
  • the polyurethane foam according to the present invention is The foam is obtained by reacting and foaming a raw material mixture containing a polyol component, a chain extender, a foam stabilizer, a catalyst, a polyisocyanate component, and a foam-forming gas
  • the polyol component includes a polyether polyol A having a functional group number of 3 or more and 4 or less and a weight average molecular weight of 3,500 or more and 13,000 or less
  • the chain extender comprises a diol having a molecular weight of 200 or less
  • the polyisocyanate component preferably contains a difunctional isocyanate.
  • the shoe insole of the present invention is equipped with the polyurethane foam of the present invention.
  • the reason for the improvement in resilience is (a) A low molecular weight chain extender and a bifunctional isocyanate react first to form a hard segment, and then a high molecular weight polyol is added to the hard segment to form a soft segment, and (b) This is believed to be because the hard segments are bonded to each other via hydrogen bonds to form a crystalline phase, promoting phase separation between the long branched main chains (soft segments) and the short chains (hard segments). The increase in elongation is believed to be due to a moderate decrease in crosslink density caused by the use of high molecular weight polyol.
  • the polyurethane foam according to the present invention is obtained by reacting and foaming a raw material mixture containing a polyol component, a chain extender, a foam stabilizer, a catalyst, a polyisocyanate component, and a foam-forming gas.
  • the raw material mixture may further contain at least one selected from the group consisting of a nucleating agent, a moisture absorbent, and an antioxidant.
  • the polyol component is a component necessary for forming a soft segment of polyurethane.
  • the polyol component includes polyether polyol A.

  • the diol may have a linear structure or a branched structure.
  • Diols with a straight-chain structure are particularly preferred.
  • the diol has a straight-chain structure, it becomes easier to achieve a high level of resilience, elongation, and tensile strength all at the same time. This is thought to be because the urethane bond (-NH-C(O)O-) in one hard segment and the urethane bond in another adjacent hard segment are more likely to be linked via hydrogen bonds, making it easier to form crosslinks with large molecular weights.
  • the diol has a branched structure
  • the resilience, elongation, and/or tensile strength may decrease. This is thought to be because the hard segments formed from the diol with a branched structure have steric hindrance (side chains), making it difficult for hydrogen bonds to form between adjacent hard segments.
  • chain extenders examples include: (a) Diols having a linear structure, such as ethylene glycol, 1,4-butanediol, and 1,6-hexanediol; (b) Diols having a branched structure such as 2-methyl-1,3-propanediol and 3-methyl-1,5-pentanediol.

  • the raw material mixture may contain a nucleating agent.
  • the nucleating agent is an additive that functions as a starting point for foam nuclei during the foam formation process. When the nucleating agent is added to the raw material mixture, foam nuclei are more likely to be formed at the interface between the liquid raw material and the nucleating agent. As a result, fine bubbles can be uniformly formed within the foam.

  • the polyurethane foam according to the present invention exhibits viscoelasticity even at low temperatures, and is therefore suitable for use as packaging materials, cushioning materials, and heat insulating materials for cold climates, which are intended to be used below freezing.
  • the reason for the improvement in resilience is (a) A low molecular weight chain extender and a bifunctional isocyanate react first to form a hard segment, and then a high molecular weight polyol is added to the hard segment to form a soft segment, and (b) This is believed to be because the hard segments are bonded to each other via hydrogen bonds to form a crystalline phase, promoting phase separation between the long branched main chains (soft segments) and the short chains (hard segments). The increase in elongation is believed to be due to a moderate decrease in crosslink density caused by the use of high molecular weight polyol.
  • the above raw materials were mixed in a specified ratio.
  • the raw material mixture was placed in a mixing head and stirred to homogenize while mixing in an inert gas (nitrogen), obtaining a foaming raw material mixture containing fine bubbles.
  • the foaming raw material mixture was applied to a PET film, and the coating was heated and cured at 200°C.
  • the amount of inert gas mixed in was set so that the volume of the inert gas was 70 when the volume of the raw materials was 100.

  • M represents that the amount of chain extender added is equivalent to 0.046 mol
  • “H” represents that the amount of chain extender added is equivalent to 0.069 mol.
  • Comparative Example 1 has low elongation and tensile strength. This is believed to be because the degree of crosslinking was excessively high due to the use of crude MDI having a functionality of 2.4 as the polyisocyanate component.
  • the weight average molecular weight of the polyol was 3,000 (Comparative Examples 2 to 9 and 11), the elongation was less than 200% regardless of the type of chain extender. Moreover, except for Comparative Examples 4, 6 and 7, the impact resilience was less than 40%.
  • Comparative Example 10 had a rebound resilience of 51%, an elongation of 305%, and a tensile strength of 1.09 MPa. This is believed to be because the weight-average molecular weight of the polyol was 3,500 or more, and the chain extender had a linear structure. However, the compression set of Comparative Example 10 was 23.4%. This is believed to be because an excessive number of reaction intermediates between 1,6-hexanediol and diisocyanate formed in the early stages of the reaction, and because the reactivity of the main polyol with diisocyanate decreased.
