ABSTRACT:
Flame retardant flexible polyurethane foams having a porosity in the range between 0.5 and 10 cubic feet per minute and meeting all of the requirements of Motor Vehicle Safety Standard Docket 302 may be produced from tolylene diisocyanate (which is a mixture of the 2,4- and 2,6-isomers) and polyether polyols without downgrading the flexibility or the porosity of the foam by (a) using in the polymerization reaction a tolylene diisocyanate in which the 2,4- to 2,6-isomer ratio is such that the tolylene diisocyanate contains not more than about 76 percent by weight of the 2,4-isomer, and (b) incorporating into the reaction medium prior to polymerization from about 1 to about 8 percent by weight of dibromoneopentyl glycol in a form such that the dibromoneopentyl glycol can be polymerized with the other reactants in the foam matrix, the weight of the dibromoneopentyl glycol being based on the weight of the polyether polyol used in the polymerization reaction. Best results have been obtained when the dibromoneopentyl glycol is incorporated in the reaction medium, either in the form of a dispersion or a solution of dibromoneopentyl glycol in the polyether polyol, using a tolylene diisocyanate in which the 2,4- to 2,6-isomer ratio is such that the tolylene diisocyanate contains 72.5 .+-. 2 percent by weight of the 2,4-isomer and 27.5 .+-. 2 percent by weight of the 2,6-isomer.
