Abstract
Abstract Novel polyurethane formulations especially useful as membranes for the protection of bridge deckings. The polyurethane is prepared by mixing two components, A and B. Component A comprises castor oil, a low molecular weight polyol having a molecular wieght between 92 and about 200, preferably with an elastomer. Component B is a modified MDI, being either (i) a mix of 4,4'- and 2,4'-isomers of diphenylmethane diisocyanate or (ii) a diphenylmethane diisocyanate and its reaction product with a low molecular weight poly(oxyalkylene).
