referring to fig1 - 3 a sponge product 10 is illustrated . the sponge product 10 includes a foraminous melamine portion or layer 12 and an abrasive portion or layer 14 , each portion in side elevation or cross - section is in the form or a parallelogram shaped body , and the portions 12 and 14 joined to form a unitary block 24 , which in side elevation or cross - section is in the form of a parallelogram shaped body having a top surface 20 , a bottom surface 16 , front and rear faces 23 and 25 , and planar parallelogram shaped sidewalls 26 and 28 . the surfaces 16 , 20 , 23 , and 25 are generally planar and rectangular shaped . the top and bottom surfaces 20 and 16 are generally parallel to one another and form exterior cleaning surfaces of the sponge product . the top surface 20 of the abrasive portion 14 is used for more aggressive scrubbing . preferably , the surfaces 16 and 20 are relatively close to one another to provide a low profile sponge body capable of reaching into hard to clean areas . the bottom surface 16 of the melamine foam portion 12 is used for less aggressive cleaning wherein the quality of the surface is a concern and also for absorbing fluids . the terms top and bottom and / or upper and lower are relative and depend on how the sponge is oriented in use . the terms are used herein as a means of describing structure in the drawing figures . the front and rear faces 23 and 25 are generally parallel to one another and at an acute angle 0 to the top and bottom faces 20 and 16 . together with the surfaces 16 and 20 , the surfaces form wedges at the opposite ends of the sponge 10 . depending on the manner that the sponge product is held and the positioning of the melamine foam and abrasive portions 12 and 14 for surface cleaning and use initiated , the front face 23 may be the rear face and the rear face 25 the front face . the sidewalls 26 and 28 are generally planar and parallel to one another and generally at a right angle to the surfaces 20 , 25 , 16 , and 23 that form the parallelogram shape of the block 24 . in some applications , the sidewalls 26 and 28 may be at an acute angle to the surfaces 20 and 16 and form in side elevation or cross - section a parallelogram shape . the melamine foam portion 12 has the lower surface 16 and an upper surface 18 , laterally spaced sidewalls 26 a and 28 a , and front and rear walls 23 a and 25 a . the abrasive portion 14 has the upper surface 20 and a bottom surface 22 , laterally spaced sidewalls 26 b and 28 b , and front and rear walls 23 b and 25 b . the surfaces 18 and 22 are joined together by any suitable means , such by sonic welding , gluing , flame laminating or the like to form a unitary product in the form of the parallelogram shaped block 24 . so joined , the sidewall 26 is formed by the sidewalls 26 a and 26 b , the sidewall 28 is formed by the sidewalls 28 a and 28 b , the inclined front wall ( or wedge ) 23 is formed by the wall portions 23 a and 23 b , and the inclined rear wall ( or wedge ) 25 is formed by the wall portions 25 a and 25 b . when the portions 12 and 14 are joined , the walls 23 a , 28 a , 25 a and 28 a of the melamine foam portion 12 and the walls 23 b , 28 b , 25 b , and 28 b of the abrasive portion 14 form generally continuous planar surfaces , as shown in the drawings . as shown in the drawings , the front and rear walls 23 and 25 of the parallelogram shape are inclined and at an acute angle 0 with respect to the bottom surface 16 and top surface 20 . the angle 0 is less than 90 ° and , depending on the application , the angle 0 is about between 35 ° and 70 °, and preferably , as shown , about 60 °. additionally , so joined into the parallelogram shaped block 24 , the sponge and abrasive portions or layers 12 and 14 of the sponge product 10 form a plurality of edges 12 a , 12 b , 12 c , and 12 d and 14 a , 14 b , 14 c , and 14 d . the sponge product 10 and the respective edges of the melamine foam and abrasive portions 12 and 14 can effectively be brought into contact with an edge or corner of a surface to either aggressively scrub the surface via the abrasive portion or less aggressively clean through the melamine foam portion . the sponge may be dimensioned to enable a user to grip the sponge by the sidewalls 26 and 28 and maneuver the body 24 as desired . in an example , the foraminous or sponge - type portion may comprise an open - celled foam , such as an open - celled hydrophilic , polyurethane foam . the actual manufacture of these foams is well known in the art . for example , in u . s . pat . nos . 6 , 841 , 586 and 6 , 855 , 741 , the disclosures of which are hereby incorporated by reference there is disclosed therein the manufacture of useful polyester polyol - based polyurethane foams . typically , these foams utilize suitable polyester polyols such as those produced by reacting a dicarboxylic and / or monocarboxylic acid with an excess of a diol and / or polyhydroxy alcohol , for example , adipic acid , glutaric acid , succinic acid , phthalic acid or anhydride , and / or fatty acids ( linolic acid , oleic acid and the like ) with diethylene glycol , ethylene glycol , propylene glycol , dipropylene glycol , 1 , 4 - butanediol , neopentyl glycol , trimethylolpropane , trimethylolethane , and / or pentaerythritol . examples of these polyols are lexorez 1102 - 50 or lexorez 1102 - 60 from inolex chemical company or fomrez 50 or fomrez 60 from crompton corporation . other suitable polyester polyols can be prepared by reacting a lactone with an excess of a diol such as caprolactone with propylene glycol . see u . s . pat . no . 4 , 331 , 555 for further discussion of suitable polyester polyols , the disclosure of which is hereby incorporated by reference . generally , however , these polyester polyurethane foams are prepared from the reaction of a hydrophilic polyester polyol and a polyisocyanate . hydrophilic ester polyols are typically reaction products of polyethylene glycol and adipic acid . examples are fomrez 45 from crompton and lexorez 1105 - hv2 from inolex chemical company . the “ hydroxyl number ” for a polyol is a measure of the amount of reactive hydroxyl groups available for reaction . the value is reported as the number of milligrams of potassium hydroxide equivalent to the hydroxyl groups found in one gram of the sample . “ functionality ” of a polyol is defined as the average number of hydroxyl group sites per molecule . preferably , the polyester polyols ordinarily used to form the foams have a hydroxyl number in the range of 20 to 150 , more preferably , in the range of 40 to 100 , and most preferably in the range of 50 to 60 . the term “ polyisocyanate ” refers particularly to isocyanates that have previously been suggested for use in preparing polyurethane foams . “ polyisocyanates ” include di - and poly - isocyanates and prepolymers of polyols and polyisocyanates having excess isocyanate groups available to react with additional polyol . the amount of polyisocyanate employed is frequently expressed by the term “ index ”, which refers to the actual amount of isocyanate required for reaction with all of the active hydrogen - containing compounds present in the reaction mixture multiplied by 100 . for most foam applications , the isocyanate index is in the range of between about 75 to 140 . the polyester polyurethane foams are prepared using any suitable organic polyisocyanates well known in the art including , for example , hexamethylene diisocyanate , phenylene diisocyanate , toluene diisocyanate ( tdi ) and 4 , 4 ′- diphenylmethane diisocyanate ( mdi ). the methylene diisocyanates suitable for use are diphenyl methane diisocyanate and polymethylene polyphenyl isocyanate blends ( sometimes referred to as “ mdi ” or “ polymeric mdi ”). the mdi blends can contain diphenylmethane 4 , 4 ′ diisocyanate , as well as 2 , 2 ′- and 2 , 4 ′- isomers and higher molecular weight oligomers and have an isocyanate functionality of from about 2 . 1 to 2 . 7 , preferably from about 2 . 1 to 2 . 5 . preferably , the isocyanate is selected from a commercial mixture of 2 , 4 - and 2 , 6 - toluene diisocyanate . a well - known commercial toluene diisocyanate is td80 , a blend of 80 % 24 - toluene diisocyanate and 20 % 26 - toluene diisocyanate . polyisocyanates are typically used at a level of between 20 and 90 parts by weight per 100 parts of polyol , depending upon the polyol oh content and water content of the formulation . one or more surfactants may also be employed in the foam - forming composition . the surfactants lower the bulk surface tension , promote nucleation of bubbles , stabilize the rising cellular structure , emulsify incompatible ingredients , and may have some effect on the hydrophilicity of the resulting foam . the surfactants typically used in polyurethane foam applications are polysiloxane - polyoxyalkylene copolymers , which are generally used at levels between about 0 . 5 and 3 parts by weight per 100 parts polyol . in the present invention , from 1 . 0 to 3 . 0 parts by weight per 100 parts polyol of surfactant is preferred . surfactants , which may for example be organic or silicone based , such as fomrez m66 - 86a ( witco ) and l532 ( osi specialties ) may be used to stabilize the cell structure , to act as emulsifiers and to assist in mixing . most preferably , the surfactant is a cell opening silicone surfactant in an amount from 1 . 5 to 2 . 5 parts by weight per 100 parts polyol . catalysts are used to control the relative rates of water - polyisocyanate ( gas - forming or blowing ) and polyol - polyisocyanate ( gelling ) reactions . the catalyst may be a single component , or in most cases a mixture of two or more compounds . preferred catalysts for polyurethane foam production are organotin salts and tertiary amines . the amine catalysts are known to have a greater effect on the water - polyisocyanate reaction , whereas the organotin catalysts are known to have a greater effect on the polyol - polyisocyanate reaction . the amount of catalyst used depends upon the formulation employed and the type of catalyst , as known to those skilled in the art . suitable urethane catalysts are all those well known to the worker skilled in the art , including tertiary amines such as triethylenediamine , n - methylimidazole , 1 , 2 - dimethylimidazole , n - methylmorpholine , n - ethylmorpholine , triethylamine , tributylamine , triethanolamine , dimethylethanolamine and bisdimethylaminodiethylether , and organotins such as stannous octoate , stannous acetate , stannous oleate , stannous laurate , dibutyltin dilaurate and dibutyltin bis ( 2 - ethylhexanoate ), and other such tin salts . other useful catalysts include tin 2 - ethylcaproate , tin naphthoate , tin octylate and the like . these catalysts may be used singly or in combination , and it may be more effective to use an amine together with an organometallic compound or an organic acid salt of a metal . catalysts should be present at about 0 . 0001 to about 5 weight percent of the reaction mixture . other useful amines which may be used as the catalyst in the present invention include , for example , trialkylamines , such as triethylene amine ; n , n , n ′, n ′- tetramethyl - 1 , 3 - butanediamine ; amino alcohols such as dimethyl ethanolamine ; ester amines such as ethoxylamine , ethoxyldiamine , bis -( diethylethanolamine ) adipate ; triethylenediamine ; cyclohexylamine derivatives such as n , n - dimethylcyclohexylamine ; morpholine derivative such as n - methylmorpholine ; and piparazine derivatives such as n , n ′- diethyl - 2 - methylpiparazine , n , n ′- bis -( 2 - hydroxypropyl )- 2 - methylpiparazine , bis ( 2 , 2 ′- dimethylaminoethyl ) ether , and the like . the catalysts , including 1 , 3 , 5 - tris -( 3 - dimethylaminopropyl )- 1 , 3 , 5 - triazine , bis -( 3 - dimethylaminopropyl ) methyl - amine , potassium acetate , potassium octoate , and dbu , and the methods of use of u . s . pat . no . 5 , 539 , 011 are exemplary and are incorporated herein by reference . water is preferably the sole blowing agent to produce carbon dioxide by reaction with the isocyanate . water is usually used at about 0 . 1 to about 10 parts per hundred parts of polyol , by weight ( pphp ), preferably between about 2 and about 8 pphp , more preferably between about 3 and about 6 . 5 pphp , most preferably between about 3 . 5 and about 5 . 8 . at foam indexes below 100 , the stoichiometric excess of water blows , via vaporization , and cools the foam , and does not take part of the reaction to produce carbon dioxide . the use of water as the foaming agent in flexible polyurethane foams increases the firmness of the resulting foams . a soft , flexible , plasticized water - blown polyurethane foam composition can be produced from the reaction of a polyol and toluene diisocyanate by adding a plasticizer selected from the group of phthalates , phosphate esters and benzoates to the reaction compounds . the types of plasticizers used in this invention are described in u . s . pat . no . 5 , 624 , 968 , the disclosure of which is incorporated by reference herein . other blowing agents that are conventionally used in the art may be used herein , such as fluorocarbon compounds , including trichlorofluoromethane , methylene chloride , methyl chloroform , as well as acetone can be included . while the amount of inert blowing material may range from about 0 to about 30 pphp , commercially acceptable foams can generally be made using between about 0 and about 8 pphp , typically between about 0 and about 5 pphp , more typically between about 1 and about 3 pphp . in another example of an open - cell foam , a double - cell structure may be created to replicate the appearance of natural sea sponges . materials used to create a double cell structure may be added to the foam forming mixture . these include : castor oil derivatives , stearic acid , acetic acid and low melting point waxes . these materials create voids larger than the prevailing pores within the resulting foam structure . if used , the double - cell additive preferably is added in an amount from 0 . 04 to 0 . 21 parts per 100 parts polyol . plasticizers which may be used include phthalate plasticizers such as , for example , alkyl aryl phthalates , or alkyl benzyl phthalates , including butyl benzyl phthalate , alkyl benzyl phthalate , preferably wherein the alkyl group has a carbon chain of from seven to nine carbon atoms , texanol ™ benzyl phthalate , ( which is 2 , 2 , 4 -

n - butyl phthalate , dioctyl phthalate , dihexyl phthalate , diheptyl phthalate , butyloctyl phthalate , linear dialkyl phthalate wherein the alkyl groups are independently carbon chains having from seven to eleven carbon atoms , and butyl cyclohexyl phthalate ; phosphate ester plasticizers such as , for example , 2 - ethylhexyl diphenyl phosphate , isodecyl diphenyl phosphate , mixed dodecyl and tetradecyl diphenyl phosphate , trioctyl phosphate , tributyl phosphate , butylphenyl diphenyl phosphate and isopropylated triphenyl phosphate ; and benzoate plasticizers such as , for example , texanol ™ benzoate ( which is 2 , 2 , 4 - trimethyl - 1 , 3 - pentanediol - monobutyrate benzoate ), glycol benzoate , propylene glycol dibenzoate , dipropylene glycol dibenzoate , and tripropylene glycol dibenzoates . also , crosslinker / extenders may be incorporated into the foam formulation . as used herein , the term “ crosslinker ” is meant to include both compounds generally known as crosslinkers and compounds generally known as chain extenders or simply extenders . crosslinkers are compounds that contain two or more isocyanate - reactive groups , such as hydroxyl groups , primary amines , and secondary amines . effective chain extender or crosslinkers can be from the saccharides , which were found to be generally effective and a preferred class . this class includes sorbitol , sucrose , mannitol , ribose , xylitol , lactose , and fructose . sorbitol and mannitol are more preferred . these compounds are not soluble in the plasticizer , but these are generally soluble in water and thus can be easily incorporated into the water - blown foam composition . the polyamines , 4 , 4 ′- methylene - bis -( 3 - chloro - 2 , 6 - diethylaniline ) ( mcdea ) at 0 . 5 pphp , and amine terminated polyalkylene oxide such as jeffamine ™ t - 403 ( huntsman co .) are effective . also , alkanolamines such as triethanolamine , diethanolamine , triisopropanolamine , diisopropanolamine , t - butyltolylenediamine , triaminonane , die thyltolylene diamine , and chlorodiaminobenzene may be used . other materials can optionally be added to the polyurethane during production to reduce problems during production or to provide desired properties in the polyurethane product . among the other additives are fillers including reground polyurethane foam , calcium carbonate , barium sulfate , and the like ; uv stabilizers ; fire retardants ; bacteriostats ; cell openers ; dyes ; and antistatic agents . it is also desirable to include stabilizers and antioxidants such as hindered amine light stabilizers and benzotriazoles . a cell opening agent , such as a polyethylene oxide monol or polyol of an equivalent weight greater than about 200 with a hydroxyl functionality of two or greater , may be included . for example , one cell opening agent is a polyethylene oxide adduct of glycerol of a molecular weight of about 990 gms / mole , with an equivalent weight of about 330 . the cell opening agent should be present at about 0 . 001 to about 20 pphp . solid stabilizing polymers and other additives , including flame retardants , colorants , dyes and anti - static agents , which are conventionally known in the art may be used with the formulations of the present invention . those additives listed in u . s . pat . no . 4 , 950 , 694 are exemplary and are incorporated herein by reference . other fillers and additives such as esters of aliphatic polyhydroxy compounds and unsaturated carboxylic acids may also be used . examples are acrylates , such as ethylene glycol diacrylate ; triethylene glycol diacrylate ; tetramethylene glycol diacrylate ; trimethylolpropane triacrylate ; trimethylolethane triacrylate ; pentaerythritol diacrylate ; pentaerythritol triacrylate ; pentaerythritol tetraacrylate ; dipentaerythritol tetraacrylate ; dipentaerythritol pentaacrylate ; dipentaerythritol hexaacrylate ; tripentaerythritol octaacrylate ; glycerol diacrylate ; methacrylates , such as triethylene glycol dimethacrylate ; tetramethylene glycol dimethacrylate ; trimethylolpropane trimethacrylate ; trimethylolethane trimethacrylate ; pentaerythritol dimethacrylate ; pentaerythritol trimethacrylate ; pentaerythritol tetramethacrylate ; dipentaerythritol dimethacrylate ; dipentaerythritol trimethacrylate ; dipentaerythritol tetramethacrylate ; tripentaerythritol octamethacrylate ; ethylene glycol dimethacrylate ; 1 , 4 -

oxidant , such as a hindered phenolic , i . e ., irganox ™ 1010 ( ciba - geigy ), an organic hosphate , or both , may be added to the composition containing the plasticizer . stabilizers such as tetrabutylhexamethylenediamine are also beneficially added . the crosslinker / extender additive beneficially improves the integrity of low index foams ; meanwhile , the plasticizer would provide good “ hand ” and physical properties along with improvements to airflow and rebound properties . in this example , the foramonous portion is an open - cell foam material made from a melamine resin . an example of such a melamine resin material is manufactured by basf corporation and sold under the name basotect v 3012 and w . when the melamine resin material is cured , its microstructure becomes extremely hard due to a finely structured three - dimensional network of slender and flexible plastic filaments that are formed . the resulting foam material may be slightly abrasive when wet . the finely abrasive quality of melamine foam is effective in removing dirt or other types of stains from a surface , since the abraded particle bind to the filaments . the abrasive portion of the product may be a reticulated foam product . these reticulated foam products are well known and commercially available . generally , they comprise a reticulated polyurethane foam . in preparing such reticulated abrasive foams , typically , a slow melt is carried out in the presence of a suitable reticulating agents such as dimethylsulfoxide , dimethylacetamide , formamide , dimethylformamide , ii - pyrrolidone and i - methyl ii - pyrrolidone . these reticulating agents cause a controlled melting of the sponge material during the freeze drying process . also , polyether poloyol - based hydrophobic polyurethane foams may be used therein for both the reticulated and non - reticulated portions . such combined scouring and sponge products are disclosed in the prior art such as in u . s . pat . no . 3 , 861 , 993 , the disclosure of which is hereby incorporated by reference . in a further example of an open - celled foam , the polyurethane foam is that which is sold by armaly brand products under the trademark estracell . estracell is a synthetic polyurethane polyester polyurethane foam which does not support bacterial growth thereby providing a longer useful life for the product . in still a further example , the sponge or base portion hereof can be a cellulosic material and the abrasive portion can be a non - woven fiber which is either glued or flame laminated to the cellulosic or cellulose portion . representative abrasive materials include , for example , polyester fibers , polyethylene fibers , polypropylene fibers , nylon with or without aluminum oxide being incorporated therewith , and so forth . in yet a further example of a sponge product , the sponge product includes an estracell polyurethane sponge portion and a non - woven fiber nylon abrasive material adhered thereto by flame laminating , extrusion or with a suitable adhesive . similarly , the sponge product may include a melamine foam sponge portion and a non - woven fiber nylon abrasive material adhered thereto by flame laminating , extrusion or with a suitable adhesive . the sponge product 10 described herein provides the user with a multi - surface scrub sponge product having a low profile shape and oppositely directed wedges that reach deep into hard - to - get - to corners and crevices as well as clean contoured and in transitions between surfaces . the multi - surface scrub material 12 and 14 is designed to clean most surfaces and is particularly advantageous in removing build up in hard to reach places , such as on a stove , around a sink , bathroom and other hard to clean places found around the home . in one application using estracell ®, the abrasive portion 14 provides a heavy duty aggressive scour surface , while the foraminous or sponge side portion 12 remove dirt or grime or the like . in another example using melamine foam , the abrasive portion 14 likewise provides for more aggressive removal of a stain , which the melamine portion 12 allows for a finely controlled removal of a stain from a surface . it is to be readily appreciated from the preceding that there has been described herein a cleaning device , which enables effective cleaning of edges and corners . the present disclosure has been described in an illustrative manner . it is to be understood that the terminology which has been used is intended to be in the nature of words of description rather than of limitation . many modifications and variations of the present example are possible in light of the above teachings . therefore , within the scope of the appended claims , the present disclosure may be practiced other than as specifically described .
