Abstract: The invention relates to a process for reducing the monomeric aziridine content in a polyaziridine forming reaction mixture by adding to the polyaziridine forming reaction mixture an excess of a carbodiimide scavenger wherein the excess is based on the equivalent ratio of scavenger to monomeric aziridine, and to a product obtained by this process and to a coating composition containing the product obtained by the process.

Abstract: The present invention relates to novel aspartates, their method of production and the use of these aspartates as reactive components for polyisocyanates in two-component polyurethane coating compositions and for preparing polyurethane prepolymers. The aspartates are prepared by first reacting a di- or polyamine with an unsaturated ester and then reacting the resultant product with a maleimide.
