The present invention relates to acrylic compositions capable of bonding directly with an isocyanate-containing composition, e.g. polyurethane, and methods for manufacturing the same. The acrylic compositions of the invention have multifunctional chain transfer agents and/or multifunctional crosslinkers with isocyanate-reactive groups.

Polyurethane adhesive

The present invention relates to a thermoformable sheet, for example, an acrylic sheet, comprising particles proximate to the top surface, wherein the textured sheet, when thermoformed, provides a low-gloss, textured surface that is less sensitive to marring, blemishes (including blemishes resulting from the mold), household wear and tear, and visibly reduces the appearance of oil deposits on its surface.

Acrylic compositions

Acrylic compositions which can be processed into thermoformable acrylic sheet material with variegated non-homogeneous granite appearance are disclosed. The acrylic compositions comprise a matrix of polymethyl methacrylate having dispersed within it particles of a thermoplastic such as polymethyl methacrylate and one or more comonomers wherein the thermoplastic is in the shape of thin wafers 0.05 to 9.53 mm thick, 0.18 to 12.8 wide and 0.18 to 7.62 mm long.

Acrylic compositions are provided which comprise a matrix of polymethyl methacrylate having dispersed within it particles comprising 75 to 90 weight percent of polymethyl methacrylate and greater than 10 to 25 weight percent of a comonomer comprising an ethylenically unsaturated monomer that copolymerizes with methyl methacrylate, wherein the particles further comprise more than 0.4 weight percent of a crosslinker.
