Patent ID: 8655633

Claim:
A method of creating a recipe for a polyurethane foam comprising: (a) populating a database means with physical properties of at least two raw materials; (b) determining design criteria for a polyurethane foam; (c) selecting at least two raw materials from said database means; (d) selecting at least one blowing agent; (e) formulating by proportioning said raw materials and said blowing agent with respect to each other; (f) calculating the physical properties of said polyurethane foam by applying an algorithm means to said physical properties of said raw materials, said blowing agent and said proportions using a calculating means; wherein said calculating means further comprises a microprocessor, an input output system and software; (g) comparing said calculated physical properties to said design criteria; (h) reformulating by repeating steps (a) through (g) until said design criteria are met; (i) creating said recipe for said polyurethane foam by recording the proportions of said raw materials and said blowing agent in a tangible medium.
