A process for the preparation of a dimensionally stable one-component polyurethane foam from a storage-stable mixture, under pressure, of a prepolymer based on polyols and containing isocyanate groups and an organic blowing agent, with or without additives, by releasing the pressure and allowing the mixture to react with the atmosphere and cure, wherein the foamable mixture, which contains from 0.1 to 15% by weight, based on the weight of the prepolymer containing isocyanate groups, of a blowing agent is introduced into the inner container of a two-compartment pressure pack, which pack contains a pressure medium in the outer container, and is discharged, when required, through a dispensing device.

Preparation of dimensionally stable one-component polyurethane foams

A process for the manufacture of dimensionally stable polyurethane foams by releasing, and curing by interaction with the atmosphere, a mixture, which is under pressure, of prepolymers, containing isocyanate groups, and blowing agents, with or without assistants and additives, wherein the prepolymers, containing isocyanate groups, are obtained by reaction of organic polyisocyanates with difunctional to octafunctional polyester-polyols and/or polyether-polyols, containing chemically bonded tertiary amino groups in the polymer chain, or, preferably, with mixtures of such polyester-polyols and/or polyether-polyols and nitrogen-free polyester-polyols and/or polyether-polyols.
