Abstract

Abstract The present invention is directed to a process for the production of urea group-containing, finely divided solid polyisocyanates by emulsifying or suspending a urea group-free organic polyisoycanate in an excess of water so that said organic polyisocyanate amounts to about 1 to 65% by weight of the reaction mixture, said water containing about 0.01 to 5% by weight, based on the aqueous phase, of a protective colloid and reacting the organic polyisocyanate with water to yeild a urea group-containing polyisocyanate.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim 85 words
A process for the productin of urea group-containing, finely divided solid polyisocyanates which comprises emulsifying or suspending a urea group-free organic polyisocyanate in an excess of water so that said organic polyisocyanate amounts to about 1 to 65% by weight of the reaction mixture, said water containing about 0.01 to 5% by weight, based on the aqueous phase, of a protective colloid, reacting the organic polyisocyanate with water to yield a urea group-containing polyisocyanate and separting and recovering said urea group-containing, finely divided solid polyisocyanates.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 85 words
A process for the productin of urea group-containing, finely divided solid polyisocyanates which comprises emulsifying or suspending a urea group-free organic polyisocyanate in an excess of water so that said organic polyisocyanate amounts to about 1 to 65% by weight of the reaction mixture, said water containing about 0.01 to 5% by weight, based on the aqueous phase, of a protective colloid, reacting the organic polyisocyanate with water to yield a urea group-containing polyisocyanate and separting and recovering said urea group-containing, finely divided solid polyisocyanates.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 37 words
The process of claim 1 wherein the reaction of said organic polyisocyanate with water is conducted in the presence of a catalyst while maintaining a pH of 7 to 10, optionally with the addition of a base.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 29 words
The process of claim 1 wherein said protective colloid comprises a member selected from the group consisting of polyvinyl alcohols, methyl cellulose, polyacrylates, polyacrylamides and polymethylvinylether/maleic acid anhydride copolymers.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 23 words
The process of claim 1 wherein said protective colloid comprises a member selected from the group consisting of polyvinyl alcohols and methyl cellulose.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 50 words
The process of claim 1 wherein the reaction is conducted in the presence of a nonionic, anionic and/or cationic surface-active agent having an HLB value of about 10 to 18, said surface-active agents being present in a quantity of about 0.001 to 3% by weight, based on the aqueous phase.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 27 words
The process of claim 1 wherein said organic polyisocyanate is present in an amount of about 10 to 30% by weight, based on the total reaction mixture.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 12 words
The process of claim 1 wherein said organic polyisocyanate is 2,4-toluylene diisocyanate.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 56 words
The process of claim 1 wherein the emulsifying or suspending step comprises mechanically intensively dispersing the polyisocyanate in the aqueous medium comprising water and the protective colloid to produce droplets with a particle size of about 0.5 to 20 μm and reacting said organic polyisocyanate with water at a temperature of about 20° to 40° C.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 18 words
The process of claim 2 which comprises deactivating or removing the catalyst before separating the solid urea diisocyanate.
