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

A two-component spray gun is illustrated that utilizes a third stream for dispensing at least some, and in some instances all, of the requisite foam precursor reactants and/or blowing agents in combination with the 'A' and 'B' reactant streams.

Foam dispensing gun with third stream

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.

Process for extending the shelf life of gaseous olefinic propellants in polyurethane foams

The invention described herein generally pertains to the use of low boiling point, low vapor pressure blowing agents with froth polyurethane or polyisocyanurate foams to fill hollow cavities (particularly window lineals) and which have lowered exotherms, which prevent deformation of the hollow cavity (e.g., window lineal) and additional achieve filling of longer lengths of window lineals by increasing the foaming and gel times of the reaction.

Method and composition for filling elongated channels with expanding foam insulation

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;5&#xb0; C. to &#x2dc;50&#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.

Marine foam

The invention described herein generally pertains to the use of low boiling point, low vapor pressure blowing agents with froth polyurethane or polyisocyanurate foams to achieve superior cavity filling than when using conventional higher vapor pressure or more ozone-depleting blowing agents.

Method for filling concrete block cavities with expanding foam insulation

The invention is the use of low boiling point, low vapor pressure blowing agents with froth polyurethane or polyisocyanurate foams to fill cavity voids when compared to higher vapor pressure or more ozone-depleting blowing agents.

Method for filling wall cavities with expanding foam insulation

The invention described herein relates to an essentially closed-cell two-component polyurethane foam containing an pesticide, which upon curing provides a barrier to insect infestation.

Insect resistant polyurethane foam

A process for cost-effectively and rapidly insulating a desired surface with spray foam insulation is described which includes the application of a polyurethane foam dispensed through heated conduits into a dispensing gun having a nozzle with essentially planar divergent lips having a triangular prism opening, the lips of the nozzle diverging at an angle of between about 5 and 35&#xb0; inclusive, more preferably between 8 to 15&#xb0; inclusive, most preferably 10 to 12&#xb0; inclusive, thereby achieving application rates which are in excess of 70 Ft/min, and optimally in excess of 100 Ft/min.

Method for rapid insulation of expanses

The invention relates generally to a stable flexible latex foam. The latex foam will contain at least one polymer having a plurality of hard domains and a plurality of soft domains, a micelle forming agent, a hydrocarbon propellant substantially free of dimethyl ether, and an agent which is a solvent for said micelle forming agent and an emulsifier for said hydrocarbon propellant.

Elastomeric latex foams

A disposable nozzle for an airless, polyurethane spray gun has an inlet chamber section sealingly latched to the gun nose for receiving polyurethane foam components, a mixing chamber section adjacent the inlet chamber containing a static mixer for mixing the polyurethane components and a dispensing tip section adjacent the mixing chamber for discharging the polyurethane as a spray. The dispensing tip has a longitudinally extending passage terminating at a rectangular opening in the tip defined by long side edges and short side edges. The length of the long side edges are generally maintained throughout the tip passage and approximate the diameter of the mixing chamber exit to produce a consistent rectangular fan spray pattern from the nozzle. Spray guide tabs extend from the long side edges of the rectangular tip opening to alleviate nozzle drip during dispensing.
