  • Patent number: 4843138
    Abstract: Improved low temperature properties of polyureaurethane are obtained, such as low glass transition temperatures and reduced bending moduli at -400.degree. C., by the use of relatively high moleuclar weight polyether polyol intermediates. The polyureaurethane is made by reacting the polyether polyol intermediate with a diisocyanate and subsequent cure with a metal halide salt complex of methylenedianiline.

  • Patent number: 4686242
    Abstract: This invention comprises a process whereby an amine functional compound having an equivalent weight of at least about 400 is reacted with an excess of a polyisocyanate to form an isocyanate-terminated prepolymer or quasi prepolymer, which polymer or quasi prepolymer is reacted with an isocyanate-reactive material which is preferably a relatively low equivalent weight polyol or mixture thereof with an additional amount of said amine functional compound or a relatively high equivalent weight polyol to form a polyurea containing polymer which is preferably non-cellular or microcellular.
