Improved double metal cyanide (DMC) catalysts useful for making epoxide polymers are disclosed. One catalyst is a paste of a double metal cyanide (DMC) compound, an organic complexing agent, and water. The paste comprises at least about 90 wt. % of particles having a particle size within the range of about 0.1 to about 10 microns as measured by light scattering in polyether polyol dispersions of the catalyst particles. Preferred catalysts have a bimodal particle size distribution. The paste catalyst is more active and simpler to prepare than powder DMC catalysts. Polyols made from the paste catalyst have low unsaturations, low viscosities, and narrow molecular weight distributions, and are useful in making a variety of polyurethane products.
本发明公开了用于制造环氧聚合物的改进型双金属氰化物(DMC)催化剂。其中一种催化剂是由双金属氰化物(DMC)化合物、有机络合剂和水组成的浆糊。该浆糊包含至少约90重量%的粒子,其粒径在约0.1至约10微米之间,通过在催化剂粒子的聚醚多元醇分散体系中进行光散射测量得出。首选催化剂具有双峰粒径分布。与粉末DMC催化剂相比,浆糊催化剂更活性且制备更简单。使用浆糊催化剂制备的聚醇具有低不饱和度、低粘度和窄分子量分布,可用于制造各种聚氨酯产品。
