Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 16
Claim 1
Independent Claim
104 words
The process for the production of poly(urethane silicate) solid or cellular solid products by the following steps: (a) adding 2 to 6 parts by weight of a liquid isocyanate-terminated polyurethane prepolymer to 1 to 2 parts by weight of a fine granular oxidated silicon compound; (b) heating the mixture to 40° C. to 80° C. while agitating for 10 to 30 minutes; thereby (c) producing a poly(urethane silicate) prepolymer; (d) adding 0.001% to 50% by weight, based on the weight of the polyurethane prepolymer, of a curing catalyst; (e) agitating the mixture for 3 to 15 minutes, thereby (f) producing a poly(urethane silicate) polymer.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
104 words
The process for the production of poly(urethane silicate) solid or cellular solid products by the following steps: (a) adding 2 to 6 parts by weight of a liquid isocyanate-terminated polyurethane prepolymer to 1 to 2 parts by weight of a fine granular oxidated silicon compound; (b) heating the mixture to 40° C. to 80° C. while agitating for 10 to 30 minutes; thereby (c) producing a poly(urethane silicate) prepolymer; (d) adding 0.001% to 50% by weight, based on the weight of the polyurethane prepolymer, of a curing catalyst; (e) agitating the mixture for 3 to 15 minutes, thereby (f) producing a poly(urethane silicate) polymer.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
38 words
