Disclosed are polyurethane-foam forming compositions, rigid polyurethane foams and methods for their production, as well as to composite articles comprising such foams sandwiched between facer substrates, including use of such composite elements for side-wall and/or roof insulating elements for refrigerated tractor trailers. The rigid polyurethane foams are produced from an isocyanate-reactive composition comprising: (1) a polyol blend; (2) a hydrochlorofluoroolefin; and (3) a tertiary amine catalyst composition.

Rigid polyurethane foams suitable for use as panel insulation

Polyol premixes and thermally insulating rigid polyurethane foams, such as those that can be used as a thermal insulation medium in the construction of refrigerated storage devices, are disclosed. A polymer polyol having a OH number of greater than 260 mg KOH/g is utilized. The resulting polyurethane foams can exhibit improved thermal insulation properties without sacrificing other important physical and processing properties.

Polyol premixes, thermally insulating rigid polyurethane foams and methods for their production

Disclosed are polyurethane-foam forming compositions, rigid polyurethane foams and methods for their production, as well as to composite articles comprising such foams sandwiched between facer substrates, including use of such composite elements for floor insulating elements for refrigerated tractor trailers. The rigid polyurethane foams are produced from an isocyanate-reactive composition comprising: (1) a polyol blend; (2) a hydrochlorofluoroolefin; and (3) a tertiary amine catalyst composition.
