The present invention provides a liquid methylene bis(phenylisocyanate) composition including a high concentration of methylene bis(phenylisocyanate) which has an improved storage stability. The invention further provides a method of making the liquid methylene bis(phenylisocyanate) compositions of the present invention.

Storage stable methylene bis(phenylisocyanate) compositions

A method for the preparation of a storage stable organic polyisocyanate having allophanate linkages prepared by reacting a urethane containing organic polyisocyanate with a reactive hydroxyl compound in the presence of a liquid organic titanium oxide, or zirconium oxide, or hafnium oxide catalyst that is fully miscible in the reactive hydroxyl compound is disclosed. After completion of the allophanate reaction, the catalyst is deactivated by the use of a strong inorganic acid, organic acid, organic chloroformate or acid chloride.

Process for the production of allophanate modified isocyanates

The invention provides a liquid polyisocyanate prepolymer composition which is a result of combining about 50.0 to 90.0 percent by weight of an isocyanate blend (a.) having 55.0 to 75.0 weight percent 4,4&prime;-MDI, 17.0 to 27.0 weight percent 2,4&prime;-MDI, 1.0 to 10.0 weight percent 3-ring MDI oligomer, and 1.0 to 15.0 weight percent n-ring MDI oligomer (n greater than 3); about 5.0 to 30.0 weight percent of a polyhydroxy containing polyol (b.) having a molecular weight of from 700 to about 6,000; and about 15.0 to 75.0 weight percent of a toluene diisocyanate (c.). The resulting isocyanate prepolymer composition has a free NCO content of from about 30.0 to 45.0 weight percent and particularly desirable flow characteristics. The invention further provides a method of making an isocyanate prepolymer composition, a process of making a polyurethane foam utilizing the isocyanate prepolymer composition of the invention, and polyurethane foams produced by the disclosed process.

Polyisocyanate compositions for the preparation of flexible polyurethane foams
