The present invention is directed to a liquid, storage stable isocyanate composition (Q) comprising monomeric diphenyl methane diisocyanate (MDI) as component (q1) and an amide with a molecular weight of less than 200 g/mol as component (q2) in an amount of 0.1 to 5 wt.-% based on the sum of the weight of components (q1) and (q2) which adds up to 100 wt.-%, wherein the NCO-content is in the range of from 29.5 to 40.0 wt.-% based on the total weight of the respective isocyanate composition (Q). The present invention is also directed to a process for the manufacture of said liquid, storage stable isocyanate composition (Q) as well as the use of an amide with a molecular weight of less than 200 g/mol for the liquification of at room temperature solid isocyanates. Further, the present invention is directed to the use of an isocyanate composition (Q) of the invention for the synthesis of polyurethane foams, compact polyurethane elastomers or thermoplastic polyurethanes.

Caprolactam-modified liquid mdi and its use in polyurethanes

A method for producing a shaped body, containing: producing the shaped body from a composition by a powder-based layer construction process, wherein the composition contains a thermoplastic polyurethane, obtained by reacting a polyisocyanate composition and a polyol composition, the thermoplastic polyurethane is solid at least in a temperature region below 50&#xb0; C. and has end groups selected from the group consisting of first end groups and second end groups, wherein the first end groups are optionally eliminated at a first temperature, and the second end groups are optionally eliminated at a second temperature, to form reactive groups on the thermoplastic polyurethane that optionally enter into a reaction with functional groups of the thermoplastic polyurethane or functional groups of a further component of the composition, and wherein the first temperature and the second temperature are each greater than or equal to 60&#xb0; C.
