Abstract:
Textiles can be finished in a wash- and cleaning-resistant manner by impregnation if aqueous dispersions are employed for this purpose which contain reactive copolymers and/or cocondensates having perfluoroalkyl groups and water-dispersible polyisocyanate mixtures whose NCO groups are not blocked.
Abstract:
This invention relates to a process for the preparation of N,N-disubstituted mono- and oligourethanes by the reaction of N-aromatically, N-aliphatically, N-cycloaliphatically, and N-araliphatically substituted mono- and oligourethanes with dialkyl carbonates in the presence of at least stoichiometrically equivalent quantities of solid alkali or alkaline-earth carbonate in excess dialkyl carbonate and/or an aprotic organic solvent and in the presence of a phase transfer catalyst.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a process for the production of aqueous dispersions of polyurethanes containing chemically incorporated carboxylate groups wherein the counterions to the carboxylate groups are predominantly ammonium ions corresponding to the formula ##STR1## by mixing a starting aqueous dispersion of polyurethanes containing chemically incorporated carboxylate groups wherein the counterions to the carboxylate groups are ammonium ions corresponding to the formula ##STR2## wherein R.sub.1, R.sub.2 and R.sub.3 are the same or different and represent C.sub.1-4 alkyl groups, provided that the total number of carbon atoms in these substituents is 3 to 6,with at least an equivalent quantity of ammonia, based on the trialkyl ammonium ions, and subsequently removing under vacuum at least a portion of the displaced trialkyl amines and the excess ammonia, if present.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to crosslinked polyurethane-polyurea powders which are prepared by a process which comprises dispersing NCO semiprepolymers in an aqueous medium, forming powders and isolating the powders from the aqueous medium, the NCO semiprepolymers having an NCO content of 10 to 20%, being liquid at room temperature and/or dissolved in isocyanate-inert, water-soluble solvents and based on the reaction product of(a) a polyisocyanate component based on at least one organic polyisocyanate with a polyol component having an average hydroxyl functionality of 2.3 to 4.0 and containing(b) a hydrophobic polyol component containing less than 25% by weight of ethylene oxide units, --CH.sub.2 --CH.sub.2 --O--, and(c) a hydrophilic polyether component comprising monohydric or polyhydric alcohols containing at least 70% by weight of structural units corresponding to the formula ##STR1## The present invention also relates to a process for the preparation of these crosslinked polyurethane-polyurea powders and to their use as fillers in two-component polyurethane coating compositions.
Abstract:
This invention relates to new emulsifiers for aqueous isocyanate emulsions and to their use as binders in the production of molded articles, in particular plates, e.g., from materials containing lignocellulose.
Abstract:
The invention relates to aqueous adhesives which are based on water-dispersible polymers and which contain water-dispersible polyisocyanate preparations having an average NCO-functionality of at least 2.2, which, in addition to an aromatic polyisocyanate or a mixture of aromatic polyisocyanates, contain a quantity of emulsifier sufficient to guarantee the dispersibility of the polyisocyanates, as additives capable of improving the bonding properties of these adhesives.
Abstract:
Dispersions of hydrophobic substances in water are prepared by dissolving the hydrophobic substance together with an ionomeric polyaddition or condensation product in an organic, water-miscible solvent or a mixture of such a solvent with water, diluting the solution with water and removing the organic solvent. The dispersions are excellently suitable for the preparation of photographic recording materials.
Abstract:
This invention relates to a new process for the production of polyisocyanates having a biuret structure by reacting aliphatic or cycloaliphatic diisocyanates with sub-stoichiometric quantities of specified aldoximes. When aldoximes are used as the biuretizing agents insoluble ureas are not formed during the reaction and nitriles which are easy to handle and distill are formed as secondary products.
Abstract:
This invention is concerned with a method of tanning or retanning leather or pelts by treating them with an aqueous liquor containing hydrophilic oligourethanes. The oligourethanes have a molecular weight of from 300 to 20,000 and they may be methylolated. The oligourethanes may be water soluble owing to their hydrophilic segments. The liquor may also contain up to an equal amount of formaldehyde or compounds which split off formaldehyde.
Abstract:
Bisulphite-blocked, polyether-modified polyisocyanates are outstandingly suitable, in combination with mineral tanning agents, for the tanning of leather.
