Abstract: A method for preparing a heat-moisture-resistant polyurethane elastomer includes (A) providing a polyol and an aliphatic diisocyanate to react in the presence of a suitable catalyst under a heating environment, thereby forming a urethane prepolymer with an reactive isocyanate terminal group; (B) providing a hydrophobic diol with a hydroxyl group and/or a castor oil-based triol as a chain extender; and (C) performing an addition reaction of the urethane prepolymer and the chain extender under an appropriate heating environment to generate the heat-moisture-resistant polyurethane elastomer that can be used for a long time in a warm and humid environment.

Abstract: A composition comprising a core comprising an iron oxide, a first shell comprising at least one plasmon active metal at least partially surrounding the core, a second shell comprising a dielectric material at least partially surrounding the first shell, and a third shell comprising at least one plasmon active metal at least partially surrounding the second shell.

Abstract: The invention provides a new sealing process for the RTM of honeycomb structures. A thermoplastic polyurethane film is first heated and adhered on the surface of honeycomb core to seal the cells. Then the general RTM process is conducted and the honeycomb products are finished. The cells with resins filled in are less than 1%. Flatwise tension and three-point bending tests are carried out to verify the bonding between the film and honeycomb core. This honeycomb core sealing can be done in less than forty minutes and the whole RTM process can be much faster than the existing methods.
