Abstract: The invention is directed to a method of tempering fiberboard that includes applying a substantially solvent-free, liquid tempering composition on at least one surface of the fiberboard and curing the tempering composition. The tempering composition includes at least one thermoset material such as one-part moisture cure polyurethane. The tempered fiberboard can be used directly as doorskin.

Abstract: One-part, ambient moisture-curable polyurethane adhesives are produced by reacting with a polyol selected from the group consisting of polyether diols, triols and tetrols based on propylene glycol or ethylene-capped propylene glycol and mixtures thereof with an organic polyisocyanate for a sufficient time to form a reaction product including an isocyanate-terminated prepolymer and unreacted isocyanate, admixing with the reaction product talc or another additive containing free water which reacts with the unreacted isocyanate to extend the chain of the polyurethane and provide hard segments therein, allowing the water-isocyanate reaction to proceed until a predetermined amount of unreacted isocyanate remains and introducing the resulting adhesive into a substantially hermetically sealed container or package.
