  • Patent number: 5661216
    Abstract: A coating composition based on amines, aldimines and isocyanates which forms a polyurea coating or film. These coating compositions are especially useful in the automotive refinish industry due to the cure rate at ambient conditions. The coatings of these compositions can be useful for obtaining low VOC (Volatile Organic Content) levels.

  • Patent number: 5484832
    Abstract: A modified polyurethane structionally incorporating silica into a polyurethane polymer. The silica is first fluidized with a polyol and then reacted with a linking component having an organo reactive group that is reactive with an isocyanate. Polyisocyanate and additional polyol are added to the reaction mixture such that the isocyanate reacts with the linking component and the polyol to form a polymer wherein the silica is an integral unit in the polymer. The resultant modified polyurethane has good dynamic properties and is surprisingly resilient.

  • Patent number: 5288797
    Abstract: A one-part moisture curable polyurethane adhesive composition comprises a blend of polyurethane prepolymers and one or more additives which unexpectedly improve the sag resistance and mechanical properties of the formulation. The final adhesive composition retains good stability in the absence of moisture for an extended period between manufacture and application of the adhesive, and has a relatively rapid and consistent cure rate in the presence of atmospheric moisture. The final cured composition exhibits good mechanical properties and generally is unaffected by ambient application and cure conditions.

  • Patent number: 5187225
    Abstract: The sealant compound of this invention comprises polyurethane resin or its precursor mixed with vapor grown carbon fiber. In the compound, whisker-shaped carbon fibers with high tensile strength intertwine and form lattices. In addition, carbon fibers are anchored in the polyurethane resin. Consequently, the compound of this invention has more tensile strength than the conventional compound containing black carbon. Thus the seal consisting of the compound of this invention has high adhesion and sealing effects.
