  • Patent number: 11053343
    Abstract: Provided is a thermoplastic resin composition which has improved ultraviolet absorbing capability, mechanical characteristics, hydrolysis resistance, transparency, and blooming resistance and is used for protecting an article used outdoors from ultraviolet light. A problem is solved by a thermoplastic polyurethane resin composition which is a reaction product of an isocyanate component (A1) containing an aliphatic polyisocyanate, a chain extender (A2), and a polyol component (A3) containing a polycarbonate diol having a side-chain alkyl group and contains an ultraviolet absorber (B1) having a benzotriazole skeleton, an ultraviolet absorber (B2) having a maximum absorption wavelength in a range from greater than or equal to 250 nm to less than or equal to 290 nm and having a triazine skeleton, a hindered amine light stabilizer (C), and an antioxidant (D).

  • Publication number: 20090318657
    Abstract: A sealing gasket for closure, made of a polyurethane elastomer obtained by reacting the following (A), (B) and (C): (A) a polyisocyanate component having an isocyanate group content of 5 to 38% by weight and average 2 to 3 functional groups, obtained by modifying an aliphatic isocyanate and/or an alicyclic isocyanate, (B) a polyol component having a hydroxyl value of 20 to 350 mgKOH/g and average 2 to 3 functional groups, and (C) a glycerin fatty acid ester having hydroxyl group(s); and a process for producing a closure using such a sealing gasket. The closure sealing gasket made of a polyurethane elastomer, obtained by the present invention, when used for a closure (e.g. a metal closure of a food container having good sealing properties), is little eluted, is less in swelling with an alcoholic beverage and less in the absorption of the odor of the alcoholic beverage into the closure sealing gasket, and is tough, and causes no yellowing.

  • Patent number: 6608160
    Abstract: A composition for production of cover packing, comprising: (A) a blocked isocyanate, (B) an active hydrogen group-containing compound having average two or more functional groups, (C) an organic substance powder having an average particle diameter of 40 to 250 &mgr;m, and (D) an inorganic substance powder having an average particle diameter of less than 40 &mgr;m; and a method for production of cover packing using the composition. With this composition which is a one-pack type, curable composition, no apparatus for mixing the main material and the curing agent is required; by heating, dissociation of blocking agent and completion of reaction are allowed to take place simultaneously; and a cover packing superior in mechanical strength, etc. can be formed.
