Abstract
Abstract Mixtures comprising a low molecular weight polyol having a functionality of from 3 to about 8, a liquid modifier compound having a boiling point above 150*C, such as an organic phosphate, phosphite or phosphonate, a polyisocyanate and a non-aminecontaining catalyst, instantly set, after a brief induction period, to a solid, dense, non-elastomeric polymeric product which can be demolded within a period of from less than about 1 minute to about 5 minutes.
