The present invention relates to a process for providing a homogeneous polyether polyol composition comprising the following steps: Providing a crude polyether polyol mixture comprising polyether polyol and a Group IA or Group IIA metal ion; Neutralisation of said crude polyether polyol mixture by adding a strong acid to said mixture, resulting in a neutralised polyether polyol composition, which comprises said polyether polyol along with a salt of said Group IA or Group IIA metal ion and said strong acid; Providing said homogeneous polyether polyol composition. characterised in that said strong acid is a pentavalent organic phosphorus compound, and in that said salt is a phosphorus-containing compound based organic salt, which is soluble in said polyether polyol composition.

Polyether polyol

A reaction mixture and production method for making a polyurethane comprising material having reduced aldehyde emissions.

Method for reduction of aldehyde emission in polyurethane comprising materials

Disclosed is a reaction mixture for the manufacturing of a polyurethane foam, which mixture can be obtained by reacting a polyfunctional isocyanate with an isocyanate-reactive compound, in the presence of a scavenger and at least one catalyst; and curing such reaction mixture enables providing a foam with reduced aldehyde emissions particularly useful in means of transport, such as interior part of cars.

Reaction mixture suitable for manufacturing of foam with reduced aldehyde emission

This invention generally provides composition for making a polyurethane foam with reduced aldehyde emission and more specially to composition useful in means of transport such as interior part of cars, wherein composition is comprising: (a) a polyfunctional isocyanate; (b) an isocyanate reactive composition; and (c) a compound of the formula (I) or (II), wherein the compound (c) is present by weight percentage in the composition in an amount ranging from about 0.001 to about 10, preferably from about 0.01 to about 5, and more preferably from about 0.05 to about 2 based on the total weight of the composition. The compositions can reduce aldehyde emission, especially acetaldehyde emission in the PU foam and has no obvious influence on the mechanic properties of the foam.

Composition with reduced aldehyde emission

A catalyst composition comprising at least a catalyst compound selected from multi metal cyanide compounds for the selective production of oxazolidinone compounds by reacting an isocyanate compound with an epoxide compound and oxazolidinone comprising materials obtained using said catalyst compound.
