A thermoplastic polymer alloy comprising the reaction product of at least one polyisocyanate, at least one substantially linear polyhydroxyl compound, and/or at least one chain extender and at least one epoxy resin. Upon curing, a thermoset polymer alloy results which is cured through the epoxy functionality which is bound in the structure.

Novel urethane polymer alloys with reactive epoxy functional groups

Thermoplastic hot melt compositions and process for forming such compositions are disclosed. The compositions comprise a polyurethane having at least one plasticizer reacted therein formed by heating a reaction mixture comprising at least one isocyanate having a functionality less than about 2, at least one long chain polyol, at least one chain extender and the at least one plasticizer at a temperature of at least about 330.degree. F. where the components are present in an amount as defined in the specification. The process is adequately reflected by the above language.

Hot melt composition and process for forming the same

Thixotropic compositions and methods for forming the same are disclosed. The thixotropic agent consists essentially of leather fibers.
