The invention pertains generally to a process and a composition-of-matter for a shelf-stable open cell polyurethane HFO-blown two-component polyurethane foam composition having improved flame-retardant properties through the use of at least one organo-tin containing catalyst and at least one potassium containing catalyst; and at least one dimorpholino-based ether catalyst, a ratio of the at least one potassium-containing catalyst to the tin-containing catalyst being at least approximately 1.5:1.0, the at least one surfactant comprising a polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) backbone and polyethylene oxide-co-propylene oxide (PEO-PPO) random copolymer grafts; and the added water comprises at least 8 weight percent of said B-side reactants, the polyurethane foam having a Class B rating with a flame spread between 25 and 75 inclusive and a smoke developed of under 450 using ASTM E 84 testing protocol.

Open cell polyurethane flame-retardant foams

A process and composition is described for the inclusion of polyether polyols in concentrations greater than 10% loading on the B-side formulation with a catalyst package less than 1% loading on the B-side formulation. In one specific example, the use of glycerin as a fluorine ion scavenger is utilized to improve performance of the polyurethane systems through a twelve-month shelf life.

HydroFluoro olefin propellant in a polyurethane foam composition

The invention generally pertains to the use of polyurethane foam blown by at least one blowing agent having a boiling point at atmospheric pressure of between &#x2dc;&#x2212;50&#xb0; C. to less than &#x2dc;5&#xb0; C., including miscible blends thereof, which passes all United States Coast Guard Title 33, Part 183 specifications wherein the buoyant force of the froth polyurethane or polyisocyanurate foam is not reduced more than 5% after exposure to being immersed in a fully saturated gasoline vapor atmosphere, in reference fuel B, in reference oil No. 2, and in a 5% solution of NaPO.

Sprayable marine foam

The invention pertains generally to a low-pressure (100-250 psi) process of seaming adjacent seams of artificial turf using a one-component or a two-component polyurethane adhesive using an apparatus which employs a payoff spool of base material in the front of the apparatus and an activation trigger adjacent the handle to begin the application of polyurethane spray foam adhesive by connectivity between the application trigger and the foam spray gun trigger.

Process for seaming of artificial turf using low-pressure adhesives

The invention described herein generally pertains to a composition and a method for improving the shelf life of a gaseous hydrofluoroolefin propellant, the improvement comprising at least the increased aromatic polyester polyol(s) in combination with a tertiary amine catalyst comprising at least two cyclohexyl rings and an aliphatic metal salt catalyst, the amine catalyst having less than 10% nitrogen on a weight basis.
