Abstract
The present invention includes a method of producing a polyol having increased functionality by reacting a vegetable oil with an alkene oxide and the polyol produced according to the method.
Claims69
A method of producing a polyol having increased functionality comprising:
- reacting a vegetable oil with an alkene oxide wherein the alkene oxide comprises about 5% by weight to about 10% by weight of the total weight of the vegetable oil and the alkene oxide.
The polyol produced by reacting a vegetable oil with an alkene oxide.
The material comprising the reaction product of an isocyanate, an oxylation compound, a modified vegetable oil and a catalyst wherein the modified vegetable oil comprises the reaction product of a first polyol and a vegetable oil and the first polyol comprises the reaction product of a multifunctional alcohol and a second multifunctional compound.
A method of producing a polyol having increased functionality comprising:
- providing a multifunctional alcohol, a vegetable oil, a second multifunctional compound having at least two hydroxyl (OH) groups, and a first oxylation compound;
- reacting the multifunctional alcohol with the second multifunctional compound to form a first esterified polyol;
- reacting the first esterified polyol with the crude vegetable oil to form a second esterified polyol;
- blowing the second esterified polyol;
- and
- reacting the second esterified polyol with the first oxylation compound.
A method of producing a polyol having increased functionality comprising:
- providing a multifunctional alcohol, a vegetable oil, a second multifunctional compound having at least two hydroxyl (OH) groups and an oxylation compound and;
- reacting the multifunctional alcohol with the second multifunctional compound to form an esterified polyol;
- reacting the esterified polyol with the vegetable oil to form a second esterified polyol;
- and
- reacting the second esterified polyol with the oxylation compound.
A method of producing a polyol having increased functionality comprising:
- reacting a vegetable oil based polyol with an oxylation compound wherein the oxylation compound comprises less than about 70% by weight of the total weight of the vegetable oil and the oxylation compound.
The method of claim 43, wherein the oxylation compound comprises a bio-based oxylation compound.
A polyol comprising the reaction product of a vegetable oil based polyol and an oxylation compound wherein the oxylation compound comprises less than about 70% by weight of the total weight of the vegetable oil and the oxylation compound.
A polyol having increased functionality comprising the reaction product of an oxylated component comprising the reaction product of an oxylation compound and an active hydrogen containing compound and a vegetable oil based polyol wherein the active hydrogen containing compound comprises at least two active hydrogens.
A method of producing a polyol having increased functionality comprising:
- reacting an oxylation compound and an active hydrogen containing compound to form an oxylated component;
- and
- reacting the oxylated component with a vegetable oil based polyol.
A method of producing a polyol having increased functionality comprising:
- reacting a first oxylation compound with a first active hydrogen containing compound comprising at least two active hydrogens to form an oxylated component;
- reacting the oxylated component with a multifunctional compound comprising at least two active hydrogens to form a precusor polyol;
- and
- reacting the precusor polyol with a vegetable oil based polyol.
A polyol having increased functionality comprising the reaction product of a precusor polyol and a vegetable oil based polyol wherein the precusor polyol comprises the reaction product of a multifunctional compound comprising at least two active hydrogens and an oxylated component wherein the oxylated component comprises the reaction product of an oxylation compound and a second active hydrogen containing compound comprising at least two active hydrogens.
