Reaction Steps

The extracts from the sample piece of the thermal insulating foamed material into methanol were analyzed by liquid chromatography. The measurement showed 0.025 mole of 4-(phenoxymethyl)-1,3-dioxolan-2-on, a cyclic carbonate produced by addition reaction of carbon dioxide to phenyl glycidyl ether, per 100 g of the thermal insulating foamed material. Only one gram of water was used as the reactive blowing agent to 100 g of polyol. This resulted in a small amount of carbon dioxide evolved through the reaction of water with the polyisocyanate and there a small amount of the carbonate produced.
