Patent number: 5367036Abstract: A moisture-curable urethane-based sealing composition is made up of an urethane prepolymer and a polyurethane compound blended together in specified amounts. The urethane prepolymer is derivable by reacting a selected class of polyether polyols with a selected class of polyisocyanate compounds. The polyurethane compound is available by reacting a selected class of polyether or polyester polyols with a selected class of polyisocyanate compounds, followed by reaction of the resulting prepolymer with a selected class of monoalcohols to thereby binder all isocyanate groups in the prepolymer. The ultimate sealant is adequate in initial adhesion strength, low in glass transition temperature and resistant to moist heat.Type: GrantFiled: October 23, 1992Date of Patent: November 22, 1994Assignee: The Yokohama Rubber Co., Ltd.Inventors: Hitoshi Saito, Tetsuji Kitamura, Hideyuki Matsuda, Masamichi Danjo, Eiji Nishi
