Abstract:
The present invention provides a process for preparing aqueous solutions of NCO group blocked resins having polyimide structures and optionally, polyamide structures. The process comprises the steps of preparing a polymer from at least one polyisocyanate, at least one tricarboxylic monoanhydride and/or at least one tetracarboxylic anhydride, and optionally, tricarboxylic acids, tetracarboxylic acids and/or dicarboxylic acids, at least one NH-functional lactam and/or 3,5-dimethylpyrazole and/or butanone oxime. The reaction mixture is subsequently reacted with a base, and the resulting resin is dissolved in water. The resins provide high-grade, highly flexible coatings having the excellent properties and chemical resistance typical of polyamideimides.
Abstract:
This invention relates to coating compositions and more particularly to highly productive coating compositions that quickly harden for sanding or buffing by incorporating therein a polyisocyanate adduct mixture into the coating composition as the crosslinking material. Such coatings are particularly useful for refinishing automobiles and trucks.

Abstract:
A method of dimerizing isocyanates including reacting the isocyanates in the presence of phosphines containing at least one directly phosphorus-attached bicyclic, cycloaliphatic radical. The polyisocyanate compositions obtained as described above can be used in mouldings, coating materials, adhesives, sealants or adjuvants that further include the polyisocyanate compositions and one or more materials selected from antioxidants, light stabilizers, pigments, fillers, additives, levelling assistance, defoamers and matting agents. The coating materials, adhesives or sealants can be used to coat substrates.
