Abstract

Abstract Polyols containing at least one carboxamide group, --[NHC═O]--, in the polyol backbone impart to polyurethane resin-forming systems a unique combination of normal pot life and accelerated curing characteristics without sacrifice of final physical properties. Methods are given for preparation of such polyols which enable incorporation of a small, predetermined number of such carboxamide groups, not exceeding in number the hydroxyl functionality of the polyol, into each and every individual polyol molecule. The rapid-curing/property-development characteristics of derived polyurethane resin-forming systems are especially valuable in molding operations, where both mold cycle times and curing energy requirements are substantially reduced in comparison with conventional polyurethane resin-forming systems having similar final physical properties.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 18
Claim 1
Independent Claim 115 words
A one-shot polyurethane resin-forming system for preparing a finished polyurethane body comprising a polyisocyanate component and a polyisocyanate reactive component in which the polyisocyanate reactive component consists essentially of a polyol resin or a polyol resin plus a chain extender, each molecule of which polyol resin has in the backbone thereof at least one carboxamide group of the formula --[NHC═O]-- in which both free valences are attached to non-aromatic carbon atoms, and not more than one such group per hydroxyl group, said polyol resin being free of urethane linkages and the proportions being such that when the polyisocyanate reactive component and the polyisocyanate component are mixed, the mixture sets up into the desired polyurethane body.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 115 words
A one-shot polyurethane resin-forming system for preparing a finished polyurethane body comprising a polyisocyanate component and a polyisocyanate reactive component in which the polyisocyanate reactive component consists essentially of a polyol resin or a polyol resin plus a chain extender, each molecule of which polyol resin has in the backbone thereof at least one carboxamide group of the formula --[NHC═O]-- in which both free valences are attached to non-aromatic carbon atoms, and not more than one such group per hydroxyl group, said polyol resin being free of urethane linkages and the proportions being such that when the polyisocyanate reactive component and the polyisocyanate component are mixed, the mixture sets up into the desired polyurethane body.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 26 words
The polyurethane resin-forming system according to claim 1, in which the carboxamide group containing polyol resin comprises at least 10 percent of the polyisocyanate reactive component.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 17 words
The polyurethane resin-forming system according to claim 1, in which the system is a castable elastomer system.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 19 words
The polyurethane resin-forming system according to claim 1, in which at least one of the components is a prepolymer.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 16 words
The polyurethane resin-forming system according to claim 1, in which the system contains a chain extender.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 27 words
The polyurethane resin-forming system according to claim 5, in which the chain extender is a low molecular weight compound having at least two isocyanate-reactive groups or water.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 19 words
The polyurethane resin-forming system according to claim 1, in which the carboxamide group containing polyol resin is a polyesterdiol.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 19 words

Claim 10
Dependent Claim 130 words
A one-shot process for making a formed polyurethane body which comprises forming a fluid one-shot polymerizable mixture of a polyisocyanate component and a polyisocyanate reactive component in proportions to form a formed polyurethane body, the polyisocyanate reactive component of which mixture consists essentially of a polyol resin or a polyol resin plus a chain extender, each molecule of which polyol resin in the backbone thereof, has at least one carboxamide group of the formula --[NHC═O]-- in which both free valences are attached to non-aromatic carbon atoms, and not more than one such group per hydroxyl group, said polyol resin being free of urethane linkages, forming the resulting mixture while it is still in the fluid unset state, and allowing the formed mixture to set up while in the formed condition.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim 130 words
A one-shot process for making a formed polyurethane body which comprises forming a fluid one-shot polymerizable mixture of a polyisocyanate component and a polyisocyanate reactive component in proportions to form a formed polyurethane body, the polyisocyanate reactive component of which mixture consists essentially of a polyol resin or a polyol resin plus a chain extender, each molecule of which polyol resin in the backbone thereof, has at least one carboxamide group of the formula --[NHC═O]-- in which both free valences are attached to non-aromatic carbon atoms, and not more than one such group per hydroxyl group, said polyol resin being free of urethane linkages, forming the resulting mixture while it is still in the fluid unset state, and allowing the formed mixture to set up while in the formed condition.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim 30 words
A process for making a formed polyurethane body according to claim 9, in which the carboxamide group containing polyol resin comprises at least 10 percent of the polyisocyanate reactive component.
Claim 13
Dependent Claim 22 words
A process for making a formed polyurethane body according to claim 9, in which the formed polyurethane body is a castable elastomer.
