Latest Patents
One of his latest patents is focused on prepolymer systems having reduced monomeric isocyanate contents. This prepolymer system has a monomeric isocyanate content of no greater than about 10% by weight based on 100 parts by weight of the prepolymer system. The system comprises a diluent component and a prepolymer component that are different and separate from each other. The diluent component contains an excess of isocyanate (NCO) functional groups and is the reaction product of a monohydric isocyanate-reactive component and an excess of a first isocyanate component. The first isocyanate component includes monomeric isocyanates that are reactive with the monohydric isocyanate-reactive component. The prepolymer component also has an excess of NCO functional groups and is derived from the reaction of a polyol component and an excess of a second isocyanate component. This prepolymer system can be utilized to prepare foams through a reaction with water, resulting in low-density foams with excellent adhesion and sound dampening properties for use in automobile body cavities.
Another significant patent involves a method for producing a uretonimine-modified isocyanate composition that has increased low-temperature tolerance. This method includes providing a first polyisocyanate composition with two or more isocyanate groups, specifically 4,4'-diphenylmethane diisocyanate (MDI), and reacting it at a temperature ranging from about 90°C to about 115°C in the presence of a catalyst. This reaction allows the isocyanate groups to form carbodiimides, leading to the creation of uretonimine and uretonimine oligomers. The reaction is quenched with a quenching agent to yield an intermediate composition with a specific isocyanate value, which is then blended with a second isocyanate composition to produce a stable uretonimine-modified isocyanate composition.
