Abstract: A two-part polyurethane adhesive exhibits excellent adhesion to low surface energy substrates such as polypropylene. The adhesive consists of a polyol component and a polyisocyanate component that are combined and cured to form the adhesive bond. The polyol component is characterized in containing a monoalcohol that has a molecular weight of 100 to 2000. The presence of the monoalcohol promotes strong bonding and a cohesive failure mode that is preferred in vehicular applications.

Abstract: Provided herein is a one-component polyurethane adhesive composition.

Abstract: One-component toughened epoxy structural adhesives contain fibrous mineral fillers that have an aspect ratio of ?6. The presence of the fibrous filler leads to a significant increase in elastic modulus while having little if any adverse effect on other properties such as dynamic impact peel resistance.

Abstract: The teachings herein relate to new compositions for thermal interface materials that provide improved thermal conductivity without requiring filler materials that are expensive or abrasive. The improved thermal conductivity is achieved using a combination of increased filler loading, selection of a filler having abroad particle size distribution, and selection of filler that is non-abrasive. In order to achieve maximum thermal conductivity, the combination of the liquid matrix material and the filler preferably are chosen to avoid forming bonds between filler particles. Such bonds can also be avoided by including a surface modifier that modifies the surface of the filler particles.

Abstract: Disclosed is an adhesive system and method of use thereof wherein the adhesive composition comprises a moisture curable adhesive comprised of an isocyanate terminated prepolymer and a cure accelerator having two curatives components having different cure kinetics. The cure accelerator is comprised of an isocyanate reactive compound comprising a primary, secondary or tertiary amino group, or a primary thiol group having faster curing kinetics resulting an increase in bead stability within the first minutes and a polyol selected from a diol and/or triol with slower curing kinetics allowing for sufficient open time and yet a fast strength build up. The preferred method of application of the adhesive system is via a 1K application gun.
