Description: TITLE OF THE INVENTION Internal Mold Release Compositions TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to internal mold release agents and surfactants, and to polyurethane reaction mixtures which employ internal mold release agents and surfactants. BACKGROUND ART Developments in the chemistry of the polymer systems used in SRIM processes have resulted in urethane and urethane-urea polymers which cure to be demolded within about 50-90 seconds after injection into a mold. The urethane polymers, however, bond tenaciously to the metal surfaces of the mold. This makes it necessary to utilize a release agent so that a urethane polymer products can be removed quickly and easily from the metal mold without damaging those products. To facilitate removal of the cured urethane polymer products, external mold release agents have been applied directly to the metal surfaces of the mold. Application of the external mold release agent requires a minimum of 30-60 seconds and must be repeated at least after manufacture of every one to five parts. This increases the part to part cycle time by as much as 50%. Additionally, this repeated application of mold release agent often causes excessive build up on areas surrounding the mold surface or on the mold surface itself. The mold therefore must be periodically cleaned. This is both time consuming and costly for the part manufacturer. Mold release agents which are contained in the reaction systems, i.e., internal mold release agents are advantageous in eliminating such difficulties. Various internal mold release agents have been proposed. For example, polysiloxane release agents such as those in U.S. Pat. 4,546,154 have been employed. However, such polysiloxane agents do not produce sufficient number of releases to be commercially acceptable. Fatty acids and their esters are also known for use as mold release agents. For example, U.S. Pat. No. 4,098,731 discloses the use of salts of saturated or unsaturated aliphatic or cycloaliphatic carboxylic acids having at least eight carbon atoms with tertiary amines which do not contain amide or ester groups as release agents for polyurethane foam production. Esterification reaction products of polysiloxanes and monocarboxylic or polycarboxylic acids, as shown in U.S. 4,024,090, also have been used as mold release agents. In addition, carboxylic acids and their derivatives have been employed as mold release agents. See U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,128,807, 4,058,492, 3,993,606 and 3,726,952. Esters of a fatty acid such as glycerol trioleate, olive oil and peanut oil as a processing aid, as shown in U.S. 4,130,698 also have been used. Such systems, however, produce only a minor improvement in release performance in SRIM systems . 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. Lubricant compositions also have been used to produce a release effect. For example, U.S. Pat. No. 3,875,069 discloses lubricant compositions for use in shaping thermoplastic materials. These lubricant compositions include: (A) mixed esters of (a) aliphatic, cycloaliphatic and/or aromatic dicarboxylic acids, (b) aliphatic polyols and (c) 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. However, as with other internal release agents, the release materials disclosed in this patent has not demonstrated the ability to achieve consistently good results.

Typically, the poly (dimethylsiloxane) surfactant is blended with the internal mold release agent. The resulting blend then is added to the polyol component employed in the B-side. Alternatively, the internal mold release agent may be added to the polyol of the B-side followed by addition of the poly (dimethylsiloxane) surfactant. The poly (dimethylsiloxane) surfactant is about 1% to about 75 % by weight of the internal mold release agent. Preparation of Reaction System Reaction systems which employ the A-side and the B-side may be prepared by any conventional method known in the art.

In this aspect, the A-side and the B-side can be mixed at weight ratios such that the ratio of the number of isocyanate groups to isocyanate-reactive groups (commonly known as the index) is about 75 to about 150%, with the proviso that 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 combined weights of the internal mold release agent and poly (dimethylsiloxane) surfactant is about 0.55 % to about 20 % by weight, preferably about 2.0 % to about 6 % by weight based upon the total weight of the reaction system. Manufacture of Molded Products Reaction systems of the above-described A-side and B-side are especially suitable for use in SRIM processes which utilize both closed molds and open molds. Preferably, products prepared by SRIM processes are made with a reinforcement mat pre-placed in a closed mold. Reinforcement mats may include, for example, glass mats, graphite mats, polyester mats, polyaramide mats such as KEVLAR mats, and mats made from fibrous materials. Suitable mats include random continuous strand mats made of glass fiber bundles, woven mats and oriented mats such as uniaxial or triaxial mats. During manufacture, the reaction system is injected into the mold with the mat. The resulting product is a mat-reinforced composite which is demolded after the reaction system cures. SRIM composite products also may be produced by including reinforcing fibers in the A-side or B-side, preferably the B- side, of the reaction system. Suitable reinforcement materials 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 composite product may contain about 0.5 to about 95 wt %, preferably about 10 to about 70 wt % of reinforcing material. The diameter of the fibers may vary from about 0.001 mm to about 1.0 mm. The fibers may be optionally pretreated with sizing agents, coatings, adhesion promoters and other kinds of surface treatments known in the art. The invention will now be illustrated by reference to the following non-limiting examples. Examples 1-10 In examples 1-10, as well as comparative examples 1 and 2, the B-side is prepared by blending all components listed for each example in a standard mixing vessel at room temperature. The B-side and the A-side are supplied to a Krauss-Maffei 'RIM-Star 16' RIM machine equipped with an impingement mix head to prepare a reaction mixture. The mix head pressure employed to prepare the reaction mixture is 2200 psi. The resulting reaction mixture leaves the mixhead at ambient pressure. In order to evaluate the release properties due to use of the internal mold release agents in combination with poly (dimethyl siloxane) surfactants, the top and bottom metal mold surfaces are prepared by removing solid contaminates with m-pyrol. The m-pyrol then is removed with mineral spirits. A coating of LH-1 paste wax then is applied to the metal mold surface. A continuous strand of E-glass fiber mat from CertainTeed Corp. that has an areal density of 1.0 ounce/ft 2 then is deposited onto the bottom metal mold surface. The composite products are made by the open pour process wherein the reaction system at 30 °C is poured into a mold heated to 82 °C having the glass fiber mat. The mold then is closed for 90 sec to cure the foam. Immediately thereafter, the mold is opened and the resulting composite part is released from the mold. Without cleaning or re-coating the mold surfaces, additional composite parts are made until a composite part fails to release from the mold surfaces . n. number of releases obtained on consecutive molded parts, i.e., without further application of wax, is measured. The reaction systems evaluated and the number of releases obtained are shown in Table 1. All amounts in Table 1 are parts by weight. In Table 1, comparative example 1 shows the use of an EO, PO-containing, non-capped surfactant. Comparative example 2 illustrates the effect of addition of EO to the B-Side in the form of a high EO polyol such as Carbowax PEG 600. In comparative example 2, Carbowax PEG 600 contributes an additional 0.0037 mols EO per 100 gm total polymer and surfactant A contributes 0.0048 ols EO per 100 gm total polymer. Examples 1-4, and 6 show the use of high EO,non-PO poly (dimethylsiloxane) surfactant . Example 5 shows the use of a low EO, non-PO poly (dimethylsiloxane) surfactant . Example 7 shows use of very high EO, non-PO poly (dimethylsiloxane) surfactant . Example 8 shows use of a high EO, PO-containing, methyl capped poly (dimethylsiloxane) surfactant . Example 9 shows use of large amount of high EO, PO-containing, non-capped poly (dimethylsiloxane) surfactant . Example 10 shows the effect of blending an internal mold release agent enhancing surfactant with a conventional non-enhancing surfactant. 00 ■C f- © © © </_ υ On P4! -f. o o O 00 f- β o </_ υ e C 1.
