Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim
108 words
In a process for preparing a polymer containing recurring isocyanurate and urethane linkages, which polymer comprises the reaction product of a polyol and an aromatic polyisocyanate, while utilizing an isocyanurate group formation catalyst; the improvement which comprises employing as said isocyanurate catalyst a tertiary amino substituted oxazolidine falling within the following structural formula ##STR3## where R 1 and R 2 taken singly are lower alkyl groups or R 1 andR 2 taken jointly together with the adjacent nitrogen atom are cycloalkyl or morpholino and R 3 and R 4 are each taken from the group consisting of hydrogen and lower alkyl and n is about 2 to 4.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
108 words
In a process for preparing a polymer containing recurring isocyanurate and urethane linkages, which polymer comprises the reaction product of a polyol and an aromatic polyisocyanate, while utilizing an isocyanurate group formation catalyst; the improvement which comprises employing as said isocyanurate catalyst a tertiary amino substituted oxazolidine falling within the following structural formula ##STR3## where R 1 and R 2 taken singly are lower alkyl groups or R 1 andR 2 taken jointly together with the adjacent nitrogen atom are cycloalkyl or morpholino and R 3 and R 4 are each taken from the group consisting of hydrogen and lower alkyl and n is about 2 to 4.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
14 words
