Abstract
The present disclosure provides a method for reducing the aldehyde content in an amine catalyst by treating the amine catalyst with a treating agent selected from a non-cyclic amide substituted with an isocyanate reactive group, a guanidine substituted with an isocyanate reactive group, a polyether amine adducted with a urea compound or a guanidine compound, a free radical scavenger and a mixture thereof. The treated amine catalyst may then be used in the production of polyurethane materials which exhibit reduced aldehyde emissions.
