The present disclosure also provides a two-part composition, in which a polymeric material is included in the first part and the second part includes at least one thiol-containing compound. Further, a method of adhering two substrates is provided, including obtaining a two-part composition; combining at least a portion of the first part with at least a portion of the second part to form a mixture; disposing at least a portion of the mixture on a first substrate; and contacting a second substrate with the mixture disposed on the first substrate. The disclosure also provides a polymeric material and a method of making a two-part composition. Advantageously, two-part compositions according to the present disclosure can be used as coatings and adhesive systems with handling and performance similar to existing two-part urethane systems, but with less sensitivity to water.

Disclosed is a structural material-bonding adhesive capable of bonding materials other than iron, and maintaining the bonding ability in an environment at a high temperature and a low temperature, while maintaining performance similar to that of a structural material adhesive used as an adhesive for bonding iron materials. A curable resin composition contains an epoxy resin, blocked urethane, and an amine-based latent curing agent, wherein the blocked urethane is obtained by reacting a urethane polymer having a terminal isocyanate group with a blocking agent, the urethane polymer being obtained by reacting a polyisocyanate, a diol, and a branching agent containing at least three groups that react with an isocyanate group.

A method for preparing an acid solution by contacting at least one aromatic carboxylic or sulfonic acid with at least one polyether having blocked hydroxyl groups as a solvent. The polyether having blocked hydroxyl groups is not volatile and exhibits a surprisingly high dissolving capacity for the aromatic carboxylic or sulfonic acid. The acid solution is very compatible in curable compositions and does not cause any emission or odor or migration effects. The acid solution is particularly suitable as a constituent of polyurethane compositions having latent curing agents for accelerating the hydrolysis of the latent reactive groups.

The present invention relates to a PVC plastisol composition comprising at least one vinyl chloride polymer selected from polyvinylchlorides and copolymers of vinyl chloride with one or more monomers; at least one plasticizer; at least one epoxy resin; and at least one isocyanate resin blocked with cardanol. The PVC plastisol composition of this invention provides strong adhesion to the surface of various metals or various undercoats of metals by thermal treatment for a short time at 100° C.-200° C. and is excellent in storage stability. In addition, it offers good rheological properties with improved yield value dosing and viscosity stability during applications compared to the nonylphenol blocked isocyanate PVC adhesion promotor.

A waterborne poly(alkynyl carbamate) prepolymer is provided which comprises a reaction product of a polyisocyanate comprising a first portion and a second portion of isocyanate groups; an isocyanate-reactive component comprising 0.1 mol % to 6 mol % of a C.sub.10-C.sub.50 glycol ether; and 99.9 mol % to 94 mol % of an alkynol, wherein the mol % is based on the moles of isocyanate in the polyisocyanate, wherein the first portion of isocyanate groups reacts with the C.sub.10-C.sub.50 glycol ether, wherein the second portion of isocyanate groups reacts with the alkynol, and wherein reaction occurs optionally in the presence of a catalyst. The reaction of long chain glycol ethers with the polyisocyanate at a level of from 0.1 mol % to 6 mol % imparts water dispersibility to the prepolymer, and when the prepolymer is dispersed in water, the performance of waterborne alternative polyurethane compositions made therefrom, such as coatings, adhesives, sealants, films, elastomers, castings, foams, and composites, are not compromised. The invention allows for the use of water as a carrier, thus eliminating the need for organic solvents.

Polymers include a monomer with a polyurethane, a supramolecular moiety, an elastomer moiety and a functional group that includes a —C═N— link. The polymers can be prepared and incorporated into a composition. The polymers can be double dynamic polymers, which present adhesive and self-healing properties.
