A method for preparing low odor polyurethane foams by the use of a high silica zeolite and a foam-forming composition.

A waterborne polyurethane dispersion is provided. The waterborne polyurethane dispersion is prepared by using a tri-functionality polyether polyol as part of the polyols for forming the prepolymer and a hydrophilic amino siloxane co-chain extender, and can exhibit superior performance properties such as enhanced color fastness, improved low temperature stability, good anti-stickiness, bally flex resistance, anti-abrasion and mechanical properties. A laminated synthetic leather article prepared with said waterborne polyurethane dispersion as well the method for preparing the synthetic leather article are also provided.

The present disclosure relates to a method for preparing a self-cleaning anti-icing coating based on brushlike organosilicon. In this method, a brushlike organosilicon-modified polyurethane coating is prepared by subjecting a thiolactone, a diamine compound and monovinyl-terminated polydimethylsiloxane to a simple multi-component click reaction to obtain a dihydroxy-terminated block, and introducing the dihydroxy-terminated block into a polyurethane matrix.

Polyol premixes and thermally insulating rigid polyurethane foams, such as those that can be used as a thermal insulation medium in the construction of refrigerated storage devices, are disclosed. A polymer polyol having a OH number of greater than 260 mg KOH/g is utilized. The resulting polyurethane foams can exhibit improved thermal insulation properties without sacrificing other important physical and processing properties.

Bellows, for example, a roll bellows and a folding bellows, can be produced that can be used at higher temperatures such as those prevailing in modern articulated constructions, using a mixture comprising at least one thermoplastic elastomer selected from the group of copolysters with a hard segment and a soft segment, wherein in a first step the at least one thermoplastic elastomer is mixed with approximately 0.8 wt. % to approximately 5 wt. % triallyl isocyanurate, based on the total amount of the mixture; in a second step the bellows is produced; and in a third step, the bellows is exposed to an ionizing irradiation in a range from approximately 140 kGy to approximately 350 kGy.

The adhesive system of the invention is especially useful in bonding replacement windows into vehicles. They allow for sufficient working time while still realizing a fast drive away time. The adhesive system is comprised of a moisture curable adhesive and a cure accelerator that may be applied using a simple single caulk gun and may be applied at ambient temperatures such as −10° C. and about 45° C. The cure accelerator is comprised of a polyol having a backbone that has at least one amine in the backbone. The moisture curable adhesive typically is comprised of an isocyanate terminated prepolymer.

Provided are a modified polyether polyol and the use thereof in polyurethane foam materials. The method for preparing a modified polyether polyol comprises the following steps: 1) reacting a compound A with a polyether polyol, wherein the compound A is an anhydride and/or dicarboxylic acid compound containing a polymerizable double bond, preferably selected from one or two of maleic anhydride and itaconic anhydride, preferably maleic anhydride; and 2) reacting the product obtained in step 1) with an epoxy compound containing a polymerizable double bond in the presence of a catalyst, in order to prepare the modified polyether polyol. The modified polyether polyol obtained by means of the preparation method has more active sites, uses the polymerizable double bond for blocking, is used as a dispersion stabilizer for the synthesis of copolymer polyols, and has the characteristics of a better dispersion stability, filterability and a low viscosity.
