Isocyanates, preparation properties

In order to gain a better insight into these problems, a fundamental study of simple mono- and di-urethanes of the furan series was undertaken. This included the determination of their structure, properties and stability (35) and the mechanism and kinetics of their formation. The combinations investigated were furan alcohols and diols with aliphatic, aromatic and furanic isocyanates and the latter mono- and bis- derivatives with aliphatic and arylalkyl alcohols and diols. The furanic isocyanates prepared included 9 and those given below ...

The morphology of a typical urethane adhesive was previously shown in Fig. 3. The continuous phase usually comprises the largest part of the adhesive, and the adhesion characteristics of the urethane are usually controlled by this phase. From a chemical standpoint, this continuous phase is usually comprised of the polyol and the small amount of isocyanate needed to react the polyol chain ends. A wide variety of polyols is commercially available. A few of the polyols most commonly used in urethane adhesives are shown in Table 2. As a first approximation, assuming a properly prepared bonding surface, it is wise to try to match the solubility parameters of the continuous phase with that of the substrate to be bonded. The adhesion properties of the urethane are controlled to a great extent by the continuous phase. Adhesion to medium polarity plastics, such as... 

Experimental Materials. All the data to be presented for these illustrations was obtained from a series of polyurethane foam samples. It is not relevant for this presentation to go into too much detail regarding the exact nature of the samples. It is merely sufficient to state they were from six different formulations, prepared and physically tested for us at an industrial laboratory. After which, our laboratory compiled extensive morphological datu on these materials. The major variable in the composition of this series of foam saaqples is the aaK>unt of water added to the stoichiometric mixture. The reaction of the isocyanate with water is critical in determining the final physical properties of the bulk sample) properties that correlate with the characteristic cellular morphology. The concentration of the tin catalyst was an additional variable in the formulation, the effect of which was to influence the polymerization reaction rate. Representative data from portions of this study will illustrate our experiences of incorporating a computer with the operation of the optical microscope.

To address this concern uretonimine-modified isocyanates with improved low-temperature properties were prepared using 4,4 -diphenylmethane diisocyanate catalyzed with 3-methyl-l-phenyl-3-phospholene-l-oxide. The formation of uretonimine was consistently higher than uretdione formation using this catalyst. The uretonimine-modified isocyanate can be stored at temperatures substantially lower than ambient temperature while still remaining liquid. In addition it is soluble in melted 4,4 -diphenylmethane diisocyanate. 

Lactic acid is an example. It is conveniently added to the polyol and upon reaction with the isocyanate, it is inserted into the backbone. Upon exposure to fluids in the body, the polymer is cut at the insertion site. The reduction in tensile properties is dramatic. Although the fragments are suspect, the result is by definition degradable. A number of researchers at W.R. Grace prepared biodegradable hydrophilic polyurethanes by a similar technique but the product was never available commercially. 

The prepolymer used for this study was an MDI-based preparation (Suprasec 1002) from Huntsman PU, Brussels, Belgium. Immobilization of the enzyme was accomplished by coating the inside structure of a reticulated foam with an acetone solution of a hydrophilic polyurethane prepolymer. A 45-pore/in. reticulated foam cut into sheets 0.25 in. thick was used. The coated reticulated foam was immersed in a catalase solution (5 pg/ml) at 4°C and left in the solution for 1 hour to ensure a complete solution. It is known that both the water and some functionality in the catalase react with the isocyanate groups to cause polymerization (the water-isocyanate reaction) and chain termination (the catalase reaction). Controlling the relative concentrations and temperature permits control of the physical properties of the composite and the ability of the foam to function as an enzyme.

The viscoelastic properties of carbon nanotube/polymer composites have both practical importance related to composite processing and scientific importance as a probe of the composite dynamics and microstructure. The viscosity for CNT/PU dispersion at mixing is also very important for in-situ formation of polyurethane nanocomposite. Lower viscosity means a better flow ability and more homogenous mixing with isocyanate. Furthermore, low viscosity is very helpful to remove the bubbles before curing, which is a key step for polyurethane preparation.
