ABSTRACT:
A molded polyurethane foam system utilizing hydrofluorocarbons and alkane hydrocarbons as the blowing agent. The molded polyurethane foam products of the invention have a high-density integral skin and a low-density core. The blowing agent can be the HFC, tetrafluoroethane (HFC-134a) chemical alone or a mixture of tetrafluoroethane (HFC-134a) with one or more of the following: alkanes (such as 2-methylbutane, pentane and heptane) and other inert volatile organic compounds with boiling points in the 15.degree.-100.degree. C. range (such as pentene and acetone).
