  • Patent number: 11312812
    Abstract: The present invention describes a process for producing an elastomer, preferably a polyurethane-containing elastomer, by reacting a polyol component (A) comprising at least one polyether carbonate polyol (A-1) containing carbon-carbon double bonds with a component (B) which is reactive with OH groups and contains at least one compound reactive toward OH groups, preferably an isocyanate component (B-1) containing NCO groups, in the presence of a free-radical initiator (C), preferably at least one peroxide (C-1), and optionally a catalyst (D), where the molar ratio of the OH-reactive groups of component (B) reactive with groups, to the OH groups of the polyol component (A) containing carbon-carbon double bonds, is greater than 1.0. It further relates to elastomers obtainable by such a process, preferably polyurethane elastomers, the use thereof, and two-component systems for production of elastomers, preferably polyurethane elastomers.

  • Publication number: 20200362090
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing a polyurethane polymer, comprising the step of reacting a polyol component with a polyisocyanate component, the polyol component comprising an oxymethylene polyol. The ratio of the polyol component to the polyisocyanate component is selected such that the polyurethane polymer obtained by the reaction has a content of oxymethylene groups from the oxymethylene polyol of ?11 wt. % to ?50 wt. %, preferably ?11 wt. % to ?45 wt. %, and the content of oxymethylene groups from the oxymethylene polyol is defined by means of proton resonance spectroscopy.

  • Publication number: 20150353485
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing a security element having a holographic layer in which a hologram is arranged, characterized by at least the following steps: a) providing the holographic layer; b) exposing the holographic layer at least in sections via a master hologram to produce a hologram copy in the holographic layer; e) printing the holographic layer at least in sections with an ink, forming a printed feature, wherein the ink comprises the melt of a dye or a colorless component or a solvent and a dye dissolved therein or a colorless component dissolved therein; d) fixing the exposed holographic layer to produce the hologram in the holographic layer, wherein the printed feature and the hologram are arranged in the holographic layer such that the printed feature and the hologram overlap at least in sections. The invention further relates to a security feature which is produced or can be produced by said method.
