Abstract

Abstract Isocyanate compositions derived from diphenylmethane diisocyanate (MDI) which are a mixture of A) the reaction product of MDI with a polyether polyol or amine of molecular weight from 600 to 10,000 and B) a uretonimine modified MDI, the weight ratio of A to B being from 19:1 to 1:1. Also polyurethanes, especially elastomers prepared therefrom.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim 97 words
A liquid isocyanate composition which has low temperature stability such that when stored it remains crystal-free for more than 10 days at 0° C., said composition being derived from diphenylmethane diisocyanate and comprising: (A) the product of reaction of 90-45% by weight of diphenylmethane diisocyanate with 10-55% by weight of a polyether of an alcohol or an amine of molecular weight from 600 to 10,000, the indicated percentages by weight being based on the weight of the reaction product; and a uretonimine modified diphenylmethane diisocyanate, the weight ratio of A to B being from 19:1 to 1:1.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 97 words
A liquid isocyanate composition which has low temperature stability such that when stored it remains crystal-free for more than 10 days at 0° C., said composition being derived from diphenylmethane diisocyanate and comprising: (A) the product of reaction of 90-45% by weight of diphenylmethane diisocyanate with 10-55% by weight of a polyether of an alcohol or an amine of molecular weight from 600 to 10,000, the indicated percentages by weight being based on the weight of the reaction product; and a uretonimine modified diphenylmethane diisocyanate, the weight ratio of A to B being from 19:1 to 1:1.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 55 words
An isocyanate composition according to claim 1 made by a process in which diphenylmethane diisocyanate is partly converted to the uretonimine derivative, then a polyether polyol or amine is added, the degree of conversion and the amount of polyether polyol or amine added being chosen so as to give the ratio stated in claim 1.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 35 words
An isocyanate composition comprising a composition according to claim 1 to which has been added up to 50% of its weight of diphenyl methane diisocyanate, containing from 1 to 60% weight of the 2,4' isomer.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 26 words
An isocyanate composition according to claim 1 together with sufficient polyisocyanate of a sufficient functionality such that the resultant composition has an isocyanate functionality of 2.3.
