Abstract

For the synthesis of polyurethane memory foam stabilizer with fine cells, hydrosilylation reaction with various polyalkyleneoxides and hydrogen functional group of polymethylhydrogensiloxane (D = 75, D' = 15) was conducted. Polyalkyleneoxides (PAO) used in this research were ethylene oxides or ethylene-co-propylene oxides with terminal groups of hydroxides or methyl groups. To analyze the molecular structures and molecular weights as well as the reaction yields (98%), NMR and GPC analysis were executed. Synthesized siloxane surfactants modified with polyalkylene (EO = 12 units) were applied to producing flexible polyurethane fine memory foams from 0.6 pphp to 2.0 pphp. By controlling the amount of the surfactant, physical characteristics, the polyurethane memory foam with cell size (minimum $0.868{\mu}m$), air flows (-78 KPa), and recovery times (8 sec) were achieved.
