Inventors:

Wayne K. Larson - Maplewood MN

Assignee:

Minnesota Mining and Manufacturing Company - St. Paul MN

International Classification:

C08G 1832

US Classification:

528 68

Abstract:

An isocyanate-terminated sulfocompound is the reaction product of a polyisocyanate and a sulfopolyol or sulfopolyamine which is the reaction product of one mole of a sulfodicarboxylic acid and about two moles of an aliphatic polyol or polyamine having two or more hydroxyl or amino groups attached to a linear chain and having a molecular weight of up to 2000. The sulfocompound can be reacted with ethylenically-unsaturated alcohols, water, polyamines, or polyols, to give ethylenically-unsaturated sulfocompounds, sulfopolyureas or sulfopolyurethanes.

B01J 1300
C08J 514

US Classification:

51295

Abstract:

The present invention relates to stable aqueous colloidal dipersions of sulfopolyureas and self supporting films formed from the dispersions which display good mechanical properties from about room temperature to temperatures exceeding 150. degree. C. The films of the invention, which are formed with no volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions and no post-coating chemical or ionic cross-linking, are not redispersible in water and may be used to form heat resistant abrasive articles.

US Patent:

Filed:

Jun 21, 1976

Appl. No.:

5/697968

Inventors:

Wayne K. Larson - Maplewood MN

Assignee:

Minnesota Mining and Manufacturing Company - St. Paul MN

International Classification:

C08G 6368

US Classification:

260 75S

Abstract:

Water-dispellable, optionally pressure-sensitive hot melt resins having superior heat-aging properties are made by reacting (1) diols, of which at least 90% are polycaprolactonediol and/or monoalkylene diols, with (2) dicarboxylic acids, of which up to 95% are aliphatic, 5-25% are aromatic and have a magnesium or alkali metal sulfonate group attached to the ring, and the balance are non-sulfonated aromatic. These resins, which find use as hot melt adhesives for book binding and other purposes, can be readily dissolved or dispersed in a paper beater during a repulping operation. The product can be wound upon itself and supplied in roll form, optionally reinforced by a fibrous membrane.

Abstract:

A method of decreasing the water uptake in a sulfopoly(ester-urethane) by preparing said sulfopoly(ester-urethane) from a chain extended sulfopolyester polyol which itself has been prepared in a two-step method, said sulfopoly(ester-urethane) comprising in its backbone at least one non-terminal arylene or alkylene group comprising a pendant sulfonic acid group or salt thereof, said sulfonic acid group or salt thereof having the formula ##STR1## wherein R is a trivalent aliphatic or aromatic group and M is a cation, said sulfonic acid group or salt thereof being bonded directly through said aliphatic or aromatic group to ester groups, the polymer of said sulfo(polyester-urethane) being terminated by at least one hydrolyzable silyl group, said two-step method for preparing said chain extended sulfopolyester polyol comprising the steps of: a) reacting a sulfopolycarboxylic acid or ester with a polyol to produce a sulfopolyester polyol, b) chain extending said sulfopolyester polyol by an esterification reaction with a lower aliphatic lactone to produce a chain extended sulfopolyester polyol, and said chain extended sulfopolyester polyol then, (1) in one embodiment, being reacted with a stoichiometric excess of a polyisocyanate and at least one of a polyol, polyamine, and polythiol to produce an isocyanate-terminated sulfo(polyester-urethane), which is then reacted with a nucleophilic, hydrolyzable silane or (2) in a second embodiment, being reacted with a polyisocyanate and a stoichiometric excess of at least one of a polyol, polyamine, and polythiol to produce a hydroxyl-, amino-, or mercapto-terminated sulfo(polyester-urethane) which is then reacted with an electrophilic hydrolyzable silane to produce said sulfopoly(ester-urethane), which when dried has decreased water uptake.
