Abstract
The present invention is directed to the manufacture of polyols and polyurethanes using thiodialkylene glycols. More particularly, the present invention is directed to the manufacture of rigid polyurethane foam using novel polyols prepared by forming a condensation product of a polyethylene terephthalate with a low molecular weight glycol having a molecular weight of about 500 or less and a thiodialkylene glycol such as thiodiethylene glycol. The present invention is also directed to the use of thiodialkylene glycols as cross linking agents in the preparation of polyurethane foam from condensation products prepared by digesting a polyethylene terephthalate with a polyol having a molecular weight of about 500 or less such as a glycol or a triol.
