In this work the results of the research on modification of rigid polyurethane foams properties by new polyols with borate and oxamide groups have been presented. Propylene glycols — the products of hydroxyalkylation of N,N′-bis(2-hydroxypropyl)oxamide bis(dihydrogenborate) by excess of propylene carbonate (PC) was used as a polyol component. The new polyols have been foamed using polymeric 4,4′-diphenylmethane diisocyanate, water and triethylamine. The modification of the foam structure by oxamide and borate groups guarantees their low water uptake, very good heat-insulating properties, good dimension stability and decreases their flammability, and does not worsen their mechanical properties and thermal stability.

There is currently a growing demand for more effective thermal insulation materials with the best performance properties. This research paper presents the investigation results on the influence of two types of filler on the structure and properties of rigid polyurethane foam composites. Fly ash as a product of coal combustion in power plants and microspheres of 5, 10, 15, and 20 wt.%, were used as rigid polyurethane foams modifiers. The results of thermal analysis, mechanical properties testing, and cellular structure investigation performed for polyurethane composites show that the addition of fly ash, up to 10 wt.%, significantly improved the majority of the tested parameters. The use of up to 20 wt.% of microspheres improves the mechanical and thermal properties and thermal stability of rigid polyurethane foams.
