Polyether polyol

Abstract

The present invention relates to a process for providing a homogeneous polyether polyol composition comprising the following steps: Providing a crude polyether polyol mixture comprising polyether polyol and a Group IA or Group IIA metal ion; Neutralisation of said crude polyether polyol mixture by adding a strong acid to said mixture, resulting in a neutralised polyether polyol composition, which comprises said polyether polyol along with a salt of said Group IA or Group IIA metal ion and said strong acid; Providing said homogeneous polyether polyol composition. characterised in that said strong acid is a pentavalent organic phosphorus compound, and in that said salt is a phosphorus-containing compound based organic salt, which is soluble in said polyether polyol composition.
