A process for preparing polyurethanes comprising reacting a polyol with an organic polyisocyanate in the presence of a catalytic amount of nickel acetylacetonate, wherein the polyol and nickel acetylacetonates are held at elevated temperatures prior to being mixed with the polyisocyanate.

Method of making polyurethane utilizing nickel acetylacetonate

Method of preparing polyurethane composite mold by injecting a composite reaction mixture onto a master form in a mold cavity, curing said reaction composite and removing it from the master form in a step-wise process involving a pressure manipulation. Said composite comprises 100 parts by weight inorganic water insoluble inert granular material and about 50 to about 200 parts by weight liquid polyurethane reaction mixture substantially free of volatile solvents.
