Abstract
According to a preferred practice of the invention, thermoset polyurethanes are molded from a mixture of solid particles of hydroquinone di-(beta-hydroxyethyl)ether (HQEE) and zinc stearate dispersed in a liquid mixture of a polyether polyol and a liquid form of diphenylmethane diisocyanate. The use of the HQEE chain extender and the zinc stearate catalyst provides a unique one-shot molding mixture that is relatively unreactive at room temperature, but polymerizes and cures rapidly upon heating. It has a pot life of at least several hours and is suitable for use in injection molding equipment generally used in processing thermoplastic material.
