Description
Verfahren zur Herstellung von Schaumstoffen unter Verwendung von Polyurethanschaumstoffabfällen Es ist bekannt, zur Herstellung von Schaumstoffen unter Verwendung von Polyurethanschaumabfällen, die bei der Herstellung von Polyurethanschaum aus Polyestern und Diisocyanaten in Gegenwart von Aktivatoren und geringen Wassermengen anfallen, die Abfälle zusammen mit einem für die Polyurethanschaumstoffherstellung gebräuchlichen Polyester oder Diisocyanat zu erhitzen und die erhaltene homogene Lösung der Abfälle im Polyester bzw. Diisocyanat zusammen mit üblichen Aktivatorgemischen nach Zugabe der zur Umsetzung des in der Lösung überschüssigen Polyesters bzw. Diisocyanats erforderlichen Komponente, also Diisocyanat bzw. Polyester, zu verschäumen. Hierdurch wird es ermöglicht, Abfallstücke fester Schaumstoffe, die auf der Grundlage von üblichen zur Herstellung von Schaumstoffen verwendeten Polyestern und Polyisocyanaten hergestellt worden sind, in befriedigender Weise wieder zu verwerten. Process for the production of foams using Polyurethane foam waste It is known for the production of foams using polyurethane foam waste that is used in the production of polyurethane foam from polyesters and diisocyanates in the presence of activators and small amounts of water incurred, the waste together with one for the polyurethane foam production conventional polyester or diisocyanate to heat and the obtained homogeneous Dissolution of the waste in the polyester or diisocyanate together with the usual activator mixtures after the addition of the polyester or diisocyanate that is used to convert the excess polyester or diisocyanate required component, i.e. diisocyanate or polyester, to be foamed. Through this will make it possible to scrap pieces of solid foam that are based on polyesters and polyisocyanates commonly used for the production of foams have been produced to be recycled in a satisfactory manner.
Es ist weiterhin der ganz allgemein gefaßte Vorschlag gemacht worden, Polyurethanschaumstoffabfälle in aktive Wasserstoffatome aufweisenden Verbindungen aufzuarbeiten, ohne daß hieraus eine Lehre für die erfindungsgemäße Aufgabenstellung entnommen werden könnte. The very general proposal has also been made, Waste polyurethane foam into compounds containing active hydrogen atoms to work up without a lesson for the task according to the invention could be taken.
Für die Herstellung von Polyurethanschaumstoffen ist es weiterhin vorgeschlagen worden, als hydroxylgruppenhaltige Komponenten nicht Polyester zu verwenden, sondern hierfür Polyäther, z. B. Polypropylenglykole, einzusetzen. Die so gewonnenen Polyurethanschaumstoffe unterscheiden sich von denjenigen, die auf der Grundlage von Polyestern hergestellt werden, sehr wesentlich in ihren Eigenschaften. Sie besitzen z. B. eine völlig veränderte Rückprallelastizität, und zwar liegt diese außerordentlich gänstig und kommt derjenigen von Schaumgummi sehr nahe, während gleichzeitig die Alterungsbeständigkeit wesentlich größer ist. Es leuchtet ein, daß gerade in der verbesserten Rückprallelastizität eine wesentliche Verbesserung für viele Zwecke des synthetischen Schaumstoffes liegt. It continues to be used for the production of polyurethane foams it has been proposed not to use polyesters as components containing hydroxyl groups use, but this polyether, z. B. polypropylene glycols to use. the Polyurethane foams obtained in this way differ from those that are based on are made on the basis of polyesters, very important in their properties. You have z. B. a completely changed rebound resilience, namely this one extremely convenient and comes very close to that of foam rubber, while at the same time the aging resistance is much greater. It makes sense that it is precisely in the improved rebound resilience that there is a substantial improvement for many purposes of synthetic foam lies.
Nun fallen auch bei der Herstellung und Verarbeitung solcher Polyurethanschaumstoffe auf Polyätherbasis mehr oder weniger große Abfallstücke an, für die man bisher noch keine befriedigende Verwendungsmöglichkeit gefunden hat. Zwar ist es möglich, solche Abfallstücke zu Flocken zu verkleinern und diese als Füllmaterial für Kissen u. dgl. zu verwenden. Diese Verwendungsmöglichkeit ist jedoch außerordentlich beschränkt und in keiner Hinsicht ideal. Das für die Polyurethanschaumstoffe auf Polyesterbasis mehrfach vorgeschlagene Zerpulvern der Abfallstücke und Zusetzen des Pulvers zu den Ausgangsstoffen kann hier infolge der Elastizität des Materials nur schwer durchgeführt werden. Now also fall in the production and processing of such polyurethane foams more or less large pieces of waste on a polyether base, for which one has hitherto has not found a satisfactory use. While it is possible such To reduce waste pieces to flakes and use them as filling material for pillows and the like. Like. To use. However, this use is extremely limited and in no way ideal. The one for the polyester-based polyurethane foams repeatedly proposed powdering the waste pieces and adding the powder The starting materials can only be carried out with difficulty due to the elasticity of the material will.
Es wurde nun überraschenderweise gefunden, daß sich auch die Polyurethanschaumstoffabfälle, die aus Schaumstoffen auf der Grundlage von Polyäthern bestehen, in ähnlicher Weise wieder verarbeiten lassen, wie dieses für die Schaumstoffabfälle auf Polyesterbasis beschrieben wurde. Völlig überraschenderweise hat es sich gezeigt, daß z. B. die erwähnte wichtige Rückprallelastizität der Schaumstoffe auf Polyätherbasis durch die erfindungsgemäße Behandlung nicht beeinträchtigt wird. It has now been found, surprisingly, that the polyurethane foam waste, which consist of foams based on polyethers, in similar way Can be reprocessed, like this one for the polyester-based foam waste has been described. Completely surprisingly, it has been shown that, for. B. the mentioned important rebound resilience of polyether-based foams the treatment according to the invention is not impaired.
Gegenstand der Erfindung ist ein Verfahren zur Herstellung von Schaumstoffen unter Verwendung von in Urethanschaumstoffe bildenden Komponenten gelösten Polyurethanschaumstoffabfällen, daß dadurch gekennzeichnet ist, daß Schaumstoffabfälle auf der Grundlage von Polyäther, gegebenenfalls in Mischung mit Schaumstoffabfällen auf Grundlage von Polyester, zusammen mit einem für die Polyurethanschaumstoffherstellung gebräuchlichen Polyäther oder Polyisocyanat erhitzt werden und die erhaltene homogene Lösung der Abfälle zusammen mit der zur Umsetzung des in der Lösung überschüssigen Polyäthers bzw. Polyisocyanats erforderlichen Komponente in an sich bekannter Weise verschäumt wird. The invention relates to a process for the production of foams using polyurethane foam waste dissolved in urethane foam forming components, that is characterized in that foam waste based on polyether, possibly mixed with foam waste based on polyester, together with a polyether commonly used in the manufacture of polyurethane foam or polyisocyanate are heated and the resulting homogeneous solution of the waste together with the reaction of the excess polyether in the solution or Polyisocyanate required component is foamed in a known manner.
Erfindungsgemäß können also sowohl Schaumstoffabfälle auf der Basis von Polyäther allein oder auch Mischungen von Schaumstoffabfällen auf der Basis von Polyäther einerseits und Polyester andererseits aufgearbeitet werden. According to the invention, both foam waste on the basis of polyether alone or mixtures of foam waste on the basis of polyether on the one hand and polyester on the other hand are processed.
Es war nicht zu erwarten, daß das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren so gefahrlos und mit so guten Ergebnissen durchgeführt werden kann, wie es tatsächlich der Fall ist. It was not to be expected that the process according to the invention would be so safe and can be done with as good results as it actually does is.
Die Verschäumung von Polyäther und Polyisocyanat muß bekanntlich besonders sorgfältig kontrolliert und insbesondere bei verhältnismäßigen tiefen Temperaturen durchgeführt werden.The foaming of polyether and polyisocyanate is known to be special carefully controlled and especially at relatively low temperatures be performed.
Es ist bekannt, daß beim Verschäumen leicht Überhitzungen eintreten und das Material dann anfängt zu brennen. Es ist demgegenüber überraschend, daß erfindungsgemäß die Schaumstoffabfälle bei den erforderlichen hohen Temperaturen ohne Schwierigkeiten gelöst und die Verschäumung in an sich bekannter Weise durchgeführt werden kann. Das Auflösen der Schaumstoffabfälle wird erfindungsgemäß nämlich insbesondere im Temperaturbereich von 150 bis 350"C durchgeführt, d. h. bei einer Temperatur, die weit über der üblichen Verschäumungstemperatur für Polyurethanschaumstoffe auf Polyätherbasis liegt. It is known that overheating easily occurs when foaming and the material then starts to burn. In contrast, it is surprising that according to the invention the foam waste at the required high Temperatures solved without difficulty and the foaming in itself known Way can be done. The dissolving of the foam waste is according to the invention namely carried out in particular in the temperature range from 150 to 350 "C, i. at a temperature well above the usual foaming temperature for polyurethane foams based on polyether.
Das Verschäumen selbst erfolgt in bekannter Weise, d. h. in Gegenwart bekannter Aktivatoren oder Aktivatorgemische. Als Polyisocyanat sind erfindungsgemäß insbesondere die Diisocyanate mit einem aromatischen Ring, z. B. Toluylendiisocyanat, geeignet. The foaming itself takes place in a known manner, i. H. in present known activators or activator mixtures. As a polyisocyanate are according to the invention especially the diisocyanates with an aromatic ring, e.g. B. tolylene diisocyanate, suitable.
Es ist weiter überraschend, daß die typischen Eigen schaften der Polyurethanschaumstoffe auf der Basis von Polyäther und insbesondere deren Rückprallelastizität durch den Einbau der Schaumstoffabfälle nicht nachteilig beeinflußt wird. Es hat sich vielmehr gezeigt, daß nach dem erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren Polyätherurethanschäume von ausgezeichneter Qualität erhalten werden können. It is further surprising that the typical properties of the Polyurethane foams based on polyether and in particular their rebound resilience is not adversely affected by the incorporation of the foam waste. It has rather, it has been shown that, according to the process according to the invention, polyether urethane foams of excellent quality can be obtained.
