Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim 23 words
The polyurethane foam of claim 1 wherein said starch is selected from the group consisting of potato starch, corn starch and mixtures thereof.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 36 words
The polyurethane foam of claim 2 wherein the proportion of said phosphoric acid is equivalent to between about 1.5 and about 3 moles of P2O5 equivalents in said phosphoric acid per glucose unit weight of starch.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 20 words
The polyurethane foam of claim 3 wherein said phosphoric acid has a concentration of about 100% by weight of H3PO4.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 19 words
The polyurethane foam of claim 3 wherein said polyether has a hydroxyl number of between about 300 and 800.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 98 words
