Described herein are a polyurethane gel, a process for preparing the same, and applications for the use thereof in medical padding.

This invention relates to rigid polyurethane foams which are co-blown with a mixture of a hydrocarbon blowing agent and a halogenated olefin blowing agent. This invention also relates to a process for preparing these rigid polyurethane foams, and to an isocyanate-reactive component containing a polyol blend and the mixture of blowing agents. Phase stable isocyanate-reactive blends are also described.

A two-component polyurethane compositions including (i) a polyol component A comprising a tri- or higher functional polyol P1 having an OH equivalent weight of from 60 g/mol to 250 g/mol and a di- or tri-functional polyether or polyester polyol P2 which is different from the polyol P1; and (ii) an isocyanate component B comprising at least one polyisocyanate I. Polyurethane compositions have surprisingly been found to be suitable for 3D printing processing, where they provide printed 3D objects with reduced tackiness even shortly after the printing. In addition, the invention provides processes for the production of three dimension objects form such compositions as well as three dimensional objects prepared accordingly and the use of corresponding compositions in 3D printing processes.

A solvent-based polyurethane retort adhesive system for producing laminates including: (A) at least one isocyanate compound, Component A, comprising: a blend of: (i) at least one aliphatic-based isocyanate and (ii) at least one aromatic-based isocyanate; and (B) at least one isocyanate-reactive component, Component B, comprising: (i) at least one phosphate ester compound and (ii) at least one polyether polyol having an average molecular weight of less than 1,500 g/mol; a process for producing the above adhesive; a multi-layer laminate product including the above adhesive; and a process for producing a laminate product using the above adhesive.

Polyurethane foams are made by curing a reaction mixture that contains an aromatic polyisocyanate, at least one isocyanate-reactive material having an average functionality of at least 2 and an equivalent weight of at least 200 per isocyanate-reactive group, at least one blowing agent, at least one surfactant and at least one catalyst, and a certain 3-oxopropanamide compound. Foams so produced emit low levels of aldehydes.
