Abstract

Abstract Curable two-part flexible film laminating adhesives are prepared from: (a) an alcoholic solution of a ketimine and/or amine terminated polyetherurethane-urea prepared by the addition of at least 50% of the stoichiometric equivalent of a diketimine having --NH functionality of 0, 1 or 3 to an isocyanate terminated polyalkylene ether diol urethane prepolymer; and (b) a polyepoxide in a chain-extending and crosslinking amount of about 10-30% by weight, based on the weight of said ketimine and/or amine terminated polyetherurethane-urea solids. Laminates formed using these adhesives are characterized by rapid curing, high bond strength, superior heat resistance as well as chemical and water resistance.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim 80 words
A curable two-part laminating adhesive for flexible film comprising: (a) an alcoholic solution of ketimine terminated and/or amine terminated polyetherurethane-urea prepared by the addition of at least 50% of the stoichiometric equivalent of a diketimine having --NH functionality of 0, 1 or 3 to an isocyanate terminated polyalkylene ether diol urethane prepolymer; and (b) a polyepoxide in a chain-extending and cross-linking amount of about 10-30% by weight, based on the weight of said ketimine terminated and/or amine terminated polyetherurethane-urea solids.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 80 words
A curable two-part laminating adhesive for flexible film comprising: (a) an alcoholic solution of ketimine terminated and/or amine terminated polyetherurethane-urea prepared by the addition of at least 50% of the stoichiometric equivalent of a diketimine having --NH functionality of 0, 1 or 3 to an isocyanate terminated polyalkylene ether diol urethane prepolymer; and (b) a polyepoxide in a chain-extending and cross-linking amount of about 10-30% by weight, based on the weight of said ketimine terminated and/or amine terminated polyetherurethane-urea solids.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 51 words
The laminating adhesive of claim 1 wherein the prepolymer of part (a) is prepared by the reaction of a di-functional polyalkylene ether glycol selected from the group consisting of poly(oxytetramethylene)glycol, poly(oxyethylene) glycol, and poly(oxypropylene)glycol with a diisocyanate selected from the group consisting of hexamethylene diisocyanate, methylene bis(cyclohexyl isocyanate) and toluene diisocyanate.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 39 words
The laminating adhesive of claim 1 wherein the diketimine used in part (a) is selected from the group consisting of ethylene diamine dimethyldiketimine, ethylene diamine methyl-ethyldiketimine, diethylene triamine dimethyldiketimine, di-ethylene triamine methylethyldiketimine, tetraethylene pentamine dimethyldiketimine and tetraethylene pentamine methylethyldiketimine.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 20 words
The laminating adhesive of claim 1 wherein the polyepoxide of part (b) is a reaction product of epichlorohydrin and bisphenol-A.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 31 words
The laminating adhesive of claim 1 wherein the polyepoxide is present in an amount of 15 to 25% by weight, based on the weight of the ketimine and/or amine-terminated polyetherurethane-urea solids.
