Abstract:
A polyglycerine initiated polyether polyol exhibiting a final functionality less than the nominal functionalities of the polyol initiator wherein the initiator is a polyglycerine formed by the polymerization of glycerin having an HEW less than about 35 and exhibiting a nominal functionality between 2 and 16 is provided. Also provided is a process for producing a polyfunctional polyurethane by the reaction of a mixture containing a polyol based on polyglycerine initiator wherein between 5 wt % and 100 wt % of the total initiator is polyglycerine having a nominal functionality between 2 and 16, at least one organic isocyanate, an amine and/or a metal salt catalyst, and optionally a blowing agent. Also provided is a flexible polyurethane foam comprising a reaction product of a polyglycerine or formed by the glycidol polymerization of glycerin, at least one organic isocyanate, and an amine catalyst.
Abstract:
A high solid copolymer polyol adhesive composition comprising: (A) A polyurethane prepolymer comprising: (1) One or more polyisocyanates; (2) One or more compounds containing on average more than one isocyanate reactive compound; (3) A dispersion triol containing from 10 to 60 percent by weight, based on the weight of the dispersion, of particles of an organic polymer which is nonreactive with the isocyanate reactive compounds and the polyisocyanates having a particle size of less than 5 microns; wherein the prepolymer has a free isocyanate content of greater than 2.2 to 15 percent; and (B) A catalyst capable of catalyzing the reaction of isocyanate moieties with water.
