  • Patent number: 4349663
    Abstract: Bis(cyclic ureas) are disclosed which have the formula ##STR1## wherein R is ##STR2## and C.sub.n H.sub.2n is ethylene or 1,3-propylene each of which can be substituted by one or more inert substituents.These compounds are useful as masked diisocyanates which, on heating in the presence of a polyol and, optionally, a polyurethane catalyst, give rise to polyurethane resins. Accordingly, they are useful as a component of storage stable compositions which are convertible to polyurethanes upon heating. Such compositions are particularly useful as solvent-less coating compositions. The properties of the above compounds are distinguished in a number of respects from the known bis(cyclic ureas) in which C.sub.n H.sub.2n has 4 or more carbon atoms in the chain between the valencies. Illustratively, the above compounds are more stable on exposure to heat in the absence of catalysts but, in the presence of polyurethane catalysts, react with polyols at a significantly faster rate than the prior art compounds.

  • Patent number: 4159371
    Abstract: This specification discloses that certain polychlorinated or polybrominated aromatic hydrocarbon compounds can be incorporated in thermosetting polymer compositions to make the thermosetting compositions flame retardant without injuring the desirable physical and electrical properties of the thermosetting compositions when in the thermoset state. These polyhalogenated aromatic hydrocarbons are apparently caused to reset into the thermosetting composition, provided there is a minimum of 1 mol of a polyunsaturated monomer containing carbon to carbon unsaturation for each 3 mols of polychlorinated aromatic hydrocarbons.
