Description: TITLE OF THE INVENTION Compatabilization of Internal Mold Release Agents TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to polyol compositions and to internal mold release agents. The present invention further relates to the use of these polyol compositions in reaction injection molding applications. BACKGROUND ART In the SRIM process, a liquid stream of polyisocyanate is impingement mixed with a stream which contains active hydrogen-containing liquids and optionally, catalysts, fillers, mold release agents, etc., and transferred to a heated metal mold. A glass mat or a mat of other structural fibers is placed into the mold prior to the impingement mixing of the components so that the final product is a reinforced composite. SRIM processes are used to manufacture high strength, low weight urethane articles. For example,, SRIM processes are used to manufacture interior trim substrates such as door panels, package trays, speaker enclosures and seat pans for automobiles . Urethane polymers, being excellent adhesives, bond tenaciously to metal making it necessary to utilize a release agent so that parts can be quickly and easily removed from the mold without damage or distortion. To facilitate ease of removal of a molded urethane part, external mold release agents and internal mold release agents have been employed. External mold release agents are applied directly to the mold surfaces. The mold surfaces are completely covered with the release agent, generally by spraying a solution or an emulsion of a soap or wax onto the surface of the mold. This procedure requires a minimum of 30-60 seconds and must be repeated after every one to five parts, thus increasing the part to part cycle time by as much as 50%. Additionally, this constant spraying often causes excessive mold release agent to build up on areas surrounding the mold surface or on the mold surface itself. In this instance, the mold must be periodically wiped off and/or cleaned by solvent or detergent wash which is both time consuming and costly for the part manufacturer. Internal mold release agents are employed directly within the polyurethane formulations. Internal mold release agents eliminate the difficulties associated with external mold release agents. Various internal mold release agents have been proposed. U.S. Pat. No. 3,875,069 discloses lubricant compositions useful in shaping thermoplastic material. The lubricant compositions include (A) mixed esters of (i) aliphatic, cycloaliphatic and/or aromatic dicarboxylic acids, (ii) aliphatic polyols and (iii) aliphatic monocarboxylic acids with (B) esters of (1) dicarboxylic acids and long chained aliphatic monofunctional alcohols (2) long chained aliphatic monofunctional alcohols and long-chained monocarboxylic acids and (3) full or partial esters of aliphatic polyols and long-chained aliphatic monocarboxylic acids . U.S. Pat. No. 5,389,696 discloses a process for producing a molded foam part using an internal mold release agent which comprises (a) 1-10% of mixed esters comprising the reaction product of i) aliphatic dicarboxylic acids, ii) aliphatic polyols, and iii) monocarboxylic acids. U.S. Pat. No. 4,546,154 discloses the use of 0.5-1.5 percent by weight of polysiloxane mold release agents in reaction injection molding systems. Polysiloxane mold release agents, however, do not provide a sufficient number of releases. For example, U.S. Pat. No. 4,098,731 discloses the use of salts of saturated or unsaturated aliphatic or cycloaliphatic carboxylic acids containing at least eight carbon atoms, and tertiary amines which do not contain amide or ester groups as release agents for polyurethane foam production. U.S. Pat. No. 4,024,090 discloses the use of esterification reaction products of polysiloxanes and monocarboxylic or polycarboxylic acids as internal mold release agents. U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,128,807, 4,058,492, 3,993,606 and 3,726,952 disclose the use of carboxylic acids or their derivatives as mold release agents. Specific fatty acids and their esters also have been employed as mold release agents. U.S. Pat. No. 4,130,698 discloses the use of esters of a fatty acid, such as glycerol trioleate, olive oil and peanut oil, as a processing aid. Polyether polyol compositions which include fatty acid esters used as internal mold release agents, however, tend to undergo rapid phase separation due to immiscibility of the fatty acid ester with the polyol. This separation makes it difficult to transport bulk quantities of internal mold release agent-containing polyol compositions which contain fatty acid ester type internal mold release agents. A need therefore exists for polyol compositions having internal mold release agents such as fatty acid esters which show improved resistance to phase separation.

A preferred class of crosslinking agents includes oxypropylated derivatives of glycerol having a number average molecular weight of about 200 to about 750, glycerol and mixtures thereof. The isocyanate reactive systems of the invention also may contain water or other blowing agent (s) . Blowing agents suitable for use with the present system are those conventionally used in the art, and include physical blowing agents such as water, chlorofluorocarbons and hydrocarbons; and chemical blowing agents, such as hydroxyfunctional cyclic ureas, etc. The blowing agents are used in amounts up to about 10%, preferably about 0.1 to about 5% and more preferably about 0.25 to about 4% by weight of the total amount of the isocyanate reactive system. In the isocyanate reactive system of the present invention, the internal mold release agent is used in an amount of from about 1 to about 50 and preferably about 10 to about 20 parts by weight based upon the weight of the isocyanate reactive system. The isocyanate reactive systems of the invention may be prepared by any suitable method known to those skilled in the art as will be evident from the present specification. In general, the isocyanate reactive systems can be prepared by mixing a surfactant, and an internal mold release agent into polyol. The carboxylic acid compound and the fatty polyester, fatty acid ester or fatty amide components of the internal mold release agent are generally not reacted prior to addition of the internal mold release agent to the isocyanate reactive composition. The polyol blends can be prepared by simply blending all polyol components listed for each sample and formulation in a standard mixing vessel. Components of the present formulations which are solid materials at room temperature were first melted and then added to a heated mixture of the polyol component under high shear mixing to prepare the B side of the reaction system. The blend was maintained at a temperature high enough so that the internal mold release system would not be precipitated during its addition. The blend was then allowed to cool during mixing. After cooling, water and catalyst were added to form the final "B side" mixture. The present invention further relates to polyurethane reaction systems for use in SRIM processes comprising, in part, the present isocyanate reactive systems having an internal mold release agents and surfactant.

Moreover, polyisocyanate variants, i.e., polyisocyanates which have been modified by the introduction of urethane, allophanate, urea, biuret, carbodiimide, uretonimine, isocyanurate and/or oxazolidone residues can also be used in the present systems. Commercially available polyisocyanates useful in the present reaction systems include the RUBINATE series of polymeric isocyanates available from Huntsman Polyurethanes. The present urethane reaction systems may further include conventionally used additives, such as flame retardants and catalysts, as needed for particular applications. Useful flame retardants include phosphonates, phosphites and phosphates, such as tris- (2-chloroisopropyl) phosphate (TCPP) , dimethyl methyl phosphonate, ammonium polyphosphate and various cyclic phosphates and phosphonate esters known in the art; halogen-containing compounds known in the art, such as brominated diphenyl ether and other brominated aromatic compounds; melamine; antimony oxides, such as antimony pentoxide and antimony trioxide; zinc compounds such as zinc oxide; alumina trihydrate; and magnesium compounds, such as magnesium hydroxide. The flame retardants may be used in any suitable amount which will be evident to those skilled in the art from the present disclaimers. However, it is preferred that the flame retardant be used in an amount of 0 to 55% of the B side of the system. Useful catalysts include tertiary amines, organometallic compounds and amides of saturated or unsaturated C 12 -C 24 fatty acids and di, tri or tetra-aminoalkanes having at least one catalytic amino group and at least one reactive amino group. Fatty amido-amines having hydroxyl substituents may also be used.

For example, the polyisocyanate component (or A side) of the reaction system may be mixed with the B side in conventional low or high pressure impingement mixing machines known in the art. The polyisocyanate component and the isocyanate-reaction system are mixed at suitable weight ratios such that the ratio of the number of isocyanate groups to isocyanate-reactive groups (commonly known as the index) is from about 75 to about 150%. When catalysts for the trimerization of isocyanates are used, the index may extend up to about 500%. Preferably, the index is from about 90 to about 115, more preferably about 95 to about 105%. The present invention is still further directed to a process for producing molded polyurethane articles comprising reacting (1) an organic polyisocyanate with (2) an isocyanate reactive composition including a polyol composition having a plurality of isocyanate-reactive groups, (3) an internal mold release agent comprising (a) a carboxylic acid and (b) a fatty polyester, a fatty ester, a fatty amide or mixtures thereof, and a surfactant . The present invention is especially suitable for use with SRIM techniques which utilize a closed mold. However, the invention will find application in open mold processes which utilize spray techniques, i.e., where the resin system is first sprayed over the mat and then the system is allowed to cure either in an open or closed mold. Parts prepared with SRIM processes are usually prepared with a reinforcement mat pre-placed in the mold. The reaction system is injected into the closed mold over the mat. The resulting part is a mat-reinforced composite which is demolded after the reaction system cures. The reaction systems of the present invention may be used with any reinforcement mat conventionally used in the SRIM art. Suitable reinforcement mats include woven or non-woven structural fibers such as glass, carbon, metal, graphite, silicon carbide, alumina, titania, boron, cellulosic, lignocellulosic, aromatic polyamide, polyester, polyolefin and mixtures thereof. The final reinforced molded article may contain between 0.5 to about 95 wt % and preferably about 10 to about 70 wt % of the reinforcing material. The diameter of the fibers is not critical and may vary from about 0.001 to about 1.0 mm. The mat may be optionally pretreated with sizing agents, coatings, adhesion promoters and other kinds of surface treatments known in the art. In the process for producing molded articles according to the present invention, the surfaces of the molds must be pre-treated with known external mold release agents or mixtures thereof. For example, the mold surfaces may be treated with conventional external mold release agents such as soaps; and waxes, e.g., carnuba wax, montan wax, etc.; and mixtures thereof. It is preferred that the external release agents (s) used have a high melting point and demonstrate little or no transfer to the molded parts. The present invention will now be illustrated by reference to the following non-limiting examples with specific reference to the preferred isocyanate reactive composition shown in Table 1. Although the composition of Table 1 is preferred, it is to be understood that the components of the composition of Table 1 can vary. Accordingly, Glycerine may be present in an amount of 0-10 parts, Polycat 8 may be present in an amount of 0-4.0 parts, Dabco 8800 may be present in an amount of 0-2.0 parts, Unitol DSR may be present in an amount of 5-10 parts, Loxiol G71S may be present in an amount of 5-10 parts, Kemester 5721 may be present in an amount of 1-2 parts, OSI-L-6980 may be present in an amount of 1.0-1.5 parts, and water may be present in an amount of 1.0-2.0 parts.

The polyol compositions presented in Examples 1-18 in Table 2 are prepared by mixing the composition shown in Table 1 with the amounts of IL-2769 and Atlas G-3969 surfactants shown in Table 2. The time periods of mixing and the shear rate employed during mixing are also illustrated in Table 2. All amounts shown in Tables 1 and 2 are in parts by weight. The time period to phase separation of the isocyanate reactive composition of Table 1 is shown in Table 3. Table 1 Table 2 . Polyurethane .

These surfactant derivatives are prepared by blending of components. The resulting surfactant derivative is blended with the isocyanate reactive composition shown in Table 1 which includes the internal mold release agent having carboxylic acid and fatty ester.
