  • Blocked polyurethane prepolymers useful in coating compositions
    Patent number: 7019102
    Abstract: Blocked polyurethane prepolymers obtained by reacting at least one polyol, a first polyisocyanate comprising diphenylmethane diisocyanate, a second polyisocyanate having a viscosity at 25° C. of less than about 250 mPa·s, a phenol blocking agent, and an oxime blocking agent, wherein the weight ratio of second polyisocyanate:first polyisocyanate is not more than 0.65:1. The blocked polyurethane prepolymers are especially useful in formulating coating compositions additionally comprising at least one acrylic resin, at least one plasticizer, at least one filler, and optionally other ingredients and additives. A cured coating is obtained by applying a layer of the coating composition to a substrate surface and heating the coating composition layer.

  • Epoxy adhesive having improved impact resistance
    Patent number: 6998011
    Abstract: In the preparation of an improved adhesive composition, an epoxy-based prepolymer is obtained by the reaction of one or more epoxy resins with amino-terminated polyethers and/or carboxyl-terminated butadiene-nitrile rubbers. In one embodiment of the invention, both a solid epoxy resin and a liquid epoxy resin, each of which is a diglycidyl ether of a polyphenol such as bisphenol A, are used. The epoxy-based prepolymer is mixed with an acrylate-terminated urethane resin (preferably, one based on a polyol having a number average molecular weight of at least about 400) and a heat-activated latent curing agent to make an adhesive composition which can be pumpable at room temperature. Curable adhesives capable of expansion to about 100% with high impact resistance after curing may be obtained by inclusion of expanding agents such as expandable microspheres.
