Abstract
Abstract The present invention is directed to a polyisocyanate comprising the reaction product of (a) an isocyanate selected from the group consisting of methylenebis(phenylisocyanate), polymethylenepoly(phenylisocyanate), and mixtures thereof, and (b) a polyester polyol having a hydroxyl functionality of from 2 to 3 and a molecular weight of from about 750 to about 3500, said polyester polyol prepared by reacting neopentyl glycol and adipic acid, the isocyanate group content of said reaction product from about 14% to about 28% by weight. The invention is also directed to a RIM process using such prepolymers.
