These novel polyether polyol blends are suitable for preparing viscoelastic flexible polyurethane foams, and in a process for preparing viscoelastic foams.

This invention generally provides composition for making a polyurethane foam with reduced aldehyde emission and more specially to composition useful in means of transport such as interior part of cars, wherein composition is comprising: (a) a polyfunctional isocyanate; (b) an isocyanate reactive composition; and (c) a compound of the formula (I) or (II), wherein the compound (c) is present by weight percentage in the composition in an amount ranging from about 0.001 to about 10, preferably from about 0.01 to about 5, and more preferably from about 0.05 to about 2 based on the total weight of the composition. The compositions can reduce aldehyde emission, especially acetaldehyde emission in the PU foam and has no obvious influence on the mechanic properties of the foam.

A polyurethane foam is produced by reacting a polyol-containing composition and an isocyanate composition. The polyol-containing composition includes a petrol-based polyol at greater than or equal to about 50 parts by weight percent and cellulose reinforcements. Additionally, a soy-based polyol is also included in various polyol-containing compositions.

A method of producing a polyurethane or polyisocyanurate foam is provided which involves the use of a specific combination of hydrofluoroolefin blowing agents and cell nucleators. The resulting foams have excellent long term thermal insulating performance and have reduced thickness in comparison to conventional thermal insulating boards. The rigid polyurethane and polyisocyanurate boards may be used to insulate refrigeration bodies, such as those employed in vehicles comprising refrigeration units, and cold storage containers.

Disclosed herein, inter alia, are fatty acid and polymer compositions and methods of making the same.
