A rigid, non-cellular, solid composition having a density of at least 1 g/cc, a percent elongation of less than 100 and which is demoldable within about 5 minutes, without the application of an external source of heat, after admixture of the components of a rapid-setting polyurethane-forming composition, free of catalytic quantities of a catalyst for urethane formation, and comprising
- A. an amine initiated polyol having an OH equivalent weight of from about 50 to less than about 250;
- B. an organic aromatic polyisocyanate;
- C. a liquid modifier compound having a boiling point above about 150.degree. C selected from the group consisting of non-ester-containing non-hydroxyl-containing polyoxyalkylene compounds and mixtures thereof; and
- wherein components (A) and (B) are present in quantities such that the NCO:OH ratio is from about 0.8:1 to about 1.5:1 and component (C) is employed in quantities of from about 5% to about 60% by weight of the combined weight of components (A), (B) and (C).
- 2. The polyurethane composition of claim 1 wherein components (A) and (B) are present in quantities such that the NCO:OH ratio is from about 0.90:1 to about 1.2:1 and component (C) is present in quantities of from about 15% to about 40% by weight of the combined weight of components (A), (B) and (C) and wherein component (A) has an OH equivalent weight of from about 50 to about 200.
- 3. The polyurethane composition of claim 2 wherein components (A) and (B) are present in quantities such that the NCO:OH ratio is from about 0.95:1 to about 1.05:1.
- 4. The composition of claim 3 wherein component (C) is an adduct of a 1-6 carbon atom alcohol and a vicinal 2 to 4 carbon atom alkylene oxide or mixtures of such oxides said adduct being capped with a 1-3 carbon atom hydrocarbon group.
- 5. The composition of claim 4 wherein said alcohol is selected from butanol and allyl alcohol.
- 6. The composition of claim 3 wherein component (A) is selected from the group consisting of triethanolamine, an adduct of diethylenetriamine with propylene oxide and an adduct of aminoethylethanolamine with propylene oxide.
- 7. The composition of claim 3 wherein component (B) is selected from the group consisting of 2,4-toluenediisocyanate, 2,6-toluenediisocyanate, diphenylmethanediisocyanate and mixtures thereof.
- 8. The composition of claim 1 cast as a decorative object.
- 9. The composition of claim 1 cast as a furniture component.
- 10. The composition of claim 1 cast as a machine component.
- 11. The composition of claim 1 wherein Component (A) additionally contains a non-amine initiated polyol having an equivalent weight of less than 200 and the weight ratio of non-amine initiated polyol to amine initiated polyol is less than 2:1.
- 12. The composition of claim 11 wherein the weight ratio of non-amine initiated polyol to amine initiated polyol is less than 1:1.
