Abstract: A liquid crystalline polyurethane elastomer is produced by reacting an isocyanate component, a high-molecular-weight polyol component and a mesogenic diol represented by formula (1), and having a crosslinking site that is introduced by a tri-functional or higher isocyanate in the isocyanate component and/or a high-molecular-weight polyol having a number average molecular weight of 400 or more and less than 7000 and having three or more hydroxy groups, in the high-molecular-weight polyol component, wherein the melting point of a mesogenic unit does not exist in a temperature range lying between the glass transition temperature (Tg) and the (liquid crystal phase)-to-(isotropic phase) transition temperature (Ti) of the polyurethane elastomer, and a liquid crystal is developed at a temperature between the Tg and the Ti.

Abstract: PIPA polyols are made in a two-step process. In the first step, a base polyether polyol and a polyisocyanate are reacted to form a mixture that contains unreacted base polyol, unreacted polyisocyanate and adducts of the base polyol and polyisocyanate. A low equivalent weight polyol is then added and reacted in a second step to form the dispersion. The process unexpectedly produces a stable dispersion of the fine PIPA particles in the base polyol, even when the base polyol contains mostly secondary hydroxyl groups. The process also permits the tuning of product viscosity by increasing or decreasing the extent of reaction in the first step.
