This article reports on work which shows that as the level of monohydroxy polyether polyol was increased from 0.01 to 0.09 meq/gram, foam physical properties are not adversely affected. At levels of monohydroxy polyether polyol greater than 0.09 meq/gram, the loadbearing values show a significant downward trend.
