  • Patent number: 6060573
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a stabilized, aliphatic and/or cycloaliphatic, blocked polyisocyanates which havei) isocyanate groups blocked with CH-acidic esters,ii) a content of blocked isocyanate groups (calculated as NCO, MW 42) of 5 to 20, preferably 7 to 15 wt. %, based on the solids content of the blocked polyisocyanate andiii) a content of formaldehyde of 0.1 to 5 wt. %, based on the solids content of the blocked polyisocyanate.The present invention also related to a process for the preparation of these stabilized, blocked polyisocyanates and to their use in one-component polyurethane stoving compositions, which may be cured at relatively low stoving temperature of about 100.degree. C., as crosslinking agents for organic polyhydroxy compounds.
