Abstract
In a method of producing a polyurethane modified polyisocyanurate foam, at least one alkali metal organo-salt catalyst is utilized in an aqueous solution free of aliphatic glycols. The catalyst preferably contains more chemical equivalents of at least one carboxylic acid than chemical equivalents of at least one alkali metal hydroxide dissolved in water. The use of extra or undissolved carboxylic acid, preferably 2-ethyl-hexoic acid, advantageously creates flame resistant amides, as well as creating carbon dioxide as a blowing agent. The use of extra or undissolved carboxylic acid can also reduce the water content of catalysts of the present invention which might have a water content in excess of the desired.
