Summary:The present invention provides a method for preparing a foam that includes a polyurethaneurea dispersion. These foams have enhanced flexibility and resistance to compressibility compared to convention polyurethane foam. These foams may also be made by a reaction injection molding process. The method includes preparing a shaped polyurethane foam article by: (a) providing a first composition comprising at least one polyol, a chain extender composition and a blowing agent; (b) providing a second composition comprising at least one of a diisocyanate, a capped glycol, and combinations thereof; (c) mixing the first composition and the second composition to form a reaction mixture into a heated mold; and (d) allowing the reaction mixture to form a polyurethane foam; wherein the first composition includes one of: (i) the chain extender composition includes at least one amine compound; (ii) the blowing agent includes a polyurethaneurea aqueous dispersion; and (iii) combinations of (i) and (ii).
