Abstract
The invention pertains to a low weight, low density rigid polyurethane-polyurea reinforced reaction injection molded (RRIM) part having wollastonite reinforcing fibers dispersed throughout a matrix made by reacting polyisocyanates with a resin containing hydroxy group tertiary amine polyether polyols, a water as a blowing agent, and optionally surfactants, chain extenders, and urethane promoting catalysts. The low density RRIM part using wollastonite and the tertiary amine polyether polyols is a low cost alternative to glass fiber reinforced low density parts, and the part exhibits good mechanical properties and quick demold times.
