  • Patent number: 12139447
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for recovering a diisocyanate which is solid at room temperature from a distillation residue from a process for producing the diisocyanate, comprising the following steps: (i) mixing the distillation residue with a bitumen such that a mixture is obtained which contains 70 to 90 wt % of the distillation residue and 10 to 30 wt % of the bitumen, each in relation to the mixture, (ii) distilling the mixture in a thin-film evaporator or a falling film evaporator to obtain a sump discharge and a gaseous product stream, (iii) condensing the gaseous product stream and obtaining a solid containing the diisocyanate which is solid at room temperature. The invention further relates to the use of a thin-film evaporator or falling film evaporator, to a composition containing the diisocyanate which is solid at room temperature, and to a method for producing an elastomer from this composition and to the elastomer itself.

  • Publication number: 20240199787
    Abstract: The invention is related to a process for producing an isocyanate-group terminated polyoxazolidinone composition comprising the copolymerization of a polyisocyanate compound with two or more isocyanate groups with a polyepoxide compound with two or more epoxy groups in the presence of phosphorous and/or antimony catalyst, wherein the molar ratio of the isocyanate groups of the polyisocyanate compound to the epoxy groups of the polyepoxide compound is larger than 2:1 and less than 25:1, and wherein the process is conducted in the absence of a solvent with a boiling point higher than 200° C., at 1 bar (absolute). The invention is also related to the resulting isocyanate-group terminated polyoxazolidinone compositions and a process for producing an isocyanate-group terminated polyoxazolidinone by removal of a solvent and/or unreacted polyisocyanate compound.

  • Publication number: 20240076439
    Abstract: The present invention relates to composition at least including (A) at least one epoxy-group terminated polyoxazolidinone, derived from at least one polyisocyanate compound and at least one aliphatic polyepoxide compound, (B) at least one compound having at least one group that is reactive towards terminal epoxy-groups, and (C) at least one solvent. The molar ratio of the epoxy groups of the polyepoxide compound to the isocyanate groups of the polyisocyanate compound is 50:1 to 2.4:1. The at least one epoxy-group terminated polyoxazolidinone is present in an amount of 50 to 95% by weight, in respect of the solid content of the composition. The sum of all components in respect of the solid content of the composition adds up to 100% by weight and where the solid content of the composition is at least 35% by weight.

  • Publication number: 20230192941
    Abstract: The invention relates to compositions containing A) at least one component having at least one uretdione group, B) at least one component having at least one hydroxyl group, C1) of at least one catalyst, containing a structural element of the general formula (I) and/or (II), wherein R1, R2, R3, R4, R5 and R6 independently of each other represent the same or different radicals meaning saturated or unsaturated, linear or branched, aliphatic, cycloaliphatic, araliphatic or aromatic organic radicals with 1 to 18 carbon atoms that are substituted or unsubstituted and/or have heteroatoms in the chain, the radicals being capable of forming, even when combined with each other and optionally together with an additional heteroatom, rings with 3 to 8 carbon atoms that can optionally be further substituted, wherein R3, R4, R5 and R6 independently of each other can also represent hydrogen, and R7 represents hydrogen or a carboxylate anion (COO?), and C2) at least one catalyst containing at least one N,N,N?-trisubstituted
