The present invention provides a flexible wrapping material comprising a coolant gel composition comprising, i) at least one hydrophilic polyurethane prepolymer, ii) a coolant agent, iii) water, and iv) thermally conductive filler.

The invention relates to a thermally activatable reactive adhesive film comprising a carrier film made of thermoplastic polyurethane, which is coated on at least one side with a latently reactive, thermally activatable adhesive compound.

The invention relates to innovative, water-dispersible, hydrophilic polyisocyanates and polyisocyanate mixtures, to a process for preparing them, to compositions comprising the hydrophilic polyisocyanates of the invention, and to their use as a starting component in the production of polyurethane plastics, more particularly as crosslinkers for water-soluble or water-dispersible film-forming, adhesives or sealant binders or binder components having groups which are reactive towards isocyanate groups.

The present invention provides two-component aqueous textured layer forming compositions useful for forming flexible top coat layers for sports surfaces. The compositions comprise vulcanized or crosslinked rubber granules, for example, EPDM rubber, a soft:hard acrylic emulsion copolymer blend in a solids weight ratio to vulcanized or crosslinked rubber granule solids that ranges from less than 1:4 to 1:9, a polyalkylene oxide rheology modifier, one or more high boiling alcohols and, as a separate component, an aqueous dispersion of an aliphatic polyisocyanate as well as an epoxy silane. The vulcanized or crosslinked rubber granules may have a sieve particle size of 8 mm or less. The inventive top coat layers have enhanced tensile strength and elongation as well as improved pot life and color stability.

A binder has at least one isocyanate and at least one biopolymer mixed with water. The biopolymer may be a biopolymer nanoparticle or cooked and chemically modified starch. Optionally, the binder may also include urea. The biopolymer and water are mixed, and the isocyanate is added to the mixture. The binder may have a viscosity that is suitable for being sprayed on a substrate to make a composite material, for example a viscosity of 700 cP or less or 500 cP or less at 40° C. The substrate may be wood, another lignocellulosic material, or synthetic or natural fibers. In particular examples, the binder is used to make no added formaldehyde wood composites including particle board and fiberboard. Alternatively, the binder may have a higher viscosity and be used to make plywood.

There is provided an adhesive composition comprising at least 50 wt % of an aqueous dispersion of an amorphous polyurethane having a Tg below 25° C.; and a water dispersible cross-linker, where the adhesive composition has a peel retention of greater than or equal to 5% according to the Water/IPA Exposure Test.

Provided is a polyurethane adhesive composition comprising a polyurethane dispersion and from 1.2 wt % to 20 wt % of a polyisocyanate crosslinker. Said polyurethane dispersion is a reaction product of from 10 wt % to 40 wt % of a monomelic aromatic diisocyanate, from 30 wt % to 65 wt % of a polyether polyol, from 15 wt % to 30 wt % of a polyester polyol having at least one aromatic group and one aliphatic group, from 0.1% to 8% of a polyamine, and from 0.5% to 10% of an ionic surfactant.

Polyurea crosslinked particles for a transport device member are provided that have high acid resistance, increase long-term retainability when included in a coating film, and are capable of maintaining a high sliding property for a long time. The polyurea crosslinked particles for a transport device member are particles formed of reactants of a self-emulsifying isocyanate having two or more isocyanate groups and a non-self-emulsifying isocyanate having two or more isocyanate groups and having a ring structure in the presence of water and a crosslink density thereof is 1×10.sup.−4 mol/g or more.

Provided is a composition comprising one or more compound having the structure of formula II: ##STR00001##
wherein A is a residue of a polyisocyanate, L is a linking group formed by a reaction of an isocyanate group with an isocyanate-reactive group, n is 5 to 25, m is 0 to 100, and Z is methyl or ethyl or propyl, and
wherein the ratio of the sum of the moles of isocyanate groups plus the moles of said L groups to the moles of said Z groups is 2:1 to 30:1. Also provided is an emulsion in which the particles comprise such a composition and further comprise one or more water-insoluble compound that does not have the structure A-NCO.
