Abstract
Azeotropic compositions made up of (a) from about 4 to about 50% by weight 1,3-dioxolane and (b) one compound selected from (1) about 75 to about 96% by weight cyclopentane, (2) about 60 to about 79% by weight 2-methyl pentane, (3) about 59 to about 77% by weight 3-methyl pentane, and (4) about 50 to about 69% by weight n-hexane in which the sum of the weight percent of (a) plus weight percent of (b) is approximately 100 percent are used as blowing agents in the production of polyurethane/polyurea foams.
