  • Publication number: 20140051800
    Abstract: An aqueous composition comprises a water-emulsifiable polyisocyanate (A), the water-emulsifiable polyisocyanate (A) being a reaction product of a polyisocyanate (B) with a compound (C) which contains at least one sulfonic acid group or its anion, and at least one isocyanate-reactive group. The composition further comprises a fragrant (D1) with at least one hydroxyl and/or aldehyde group. It has been found that the addition of the fragrant (D1) can mask unpleasant odors of the composition. This is particularly the case when organic co-solvents such as propylene glycol-n-butyl ether and/or 3-methoxy-1-butyl acetate are used. The storage stability and performance of the polyisocyanates are not affected by the addition of the fragrant (D1). Further aspects of the invention are the use of a composition according to the invention as an adhesive, a coating or an impregnating material and a substrate coated with a composition according to the invention.

  • Patent number: 7906606
    Abstract: Solvent-containing formulations including NCO-containing prepolymers based on TDI isocyanurate polyisocyanates and diphenylmethane diisocyanates where some prepolymers are prepared using a polyetherdiol containing ethylene oxide blocks and having an ethylene oxide content of from 2 to 18% by weight, based on all the alkylene oxide units. The formulation have an NCO content of 1% to 7% by weight, a solids content of 20% to 70% by weight, a monomeric TDI content of less than 0.2% by weight and a monomeric methylenediphenyl diisocyanate content of less than 2% by weight. The solvent-containing formulations can be prepared in organic solvents by reacting at least one of A) a TDI component comprising TDI isocyanurate polyisocyanates and B) an MDI component comprising diphenylmethane diisocyanates with C) a polyetherdiol. The solvent-containing formulations can be used in moisture-curing coating compositions, adhesive bonds and/or seals with substrates.
