Two-component solventless polyurethane adhesive compositions are disclosed comprising an isocyanate component comprising an isocyanate blend, and a polyol component comprising an amine-initiated polyol comprising two or more primary hydroxyl groups and a backbone incorporating tertiary amines, wherein the amine-initiated polyol comprises a functionality of from 2 to 12, a hydroxyl number of from 5 to 1,830, and a viscosity at 40 C. of from 500 to 20,000 mPa-s, and a silicone-based additive (e.g., an anti-foaming agent and/or a wetting agent). The adhesive compositions are formulated such that the isocyanate and polyol components can be applied to separate substrates prior to mixing. Laminate structures comprising the disclosed adhesive compositions and further comprising a polymeric barrier substrate are also disclosed.

1) Specific polyurethane prepolymer (PP2) comprising at least two terminal (2-oxo-1,3-dioxolan-4-yl)methyl carbamate groups of low viscosity, its preparation process and its use in the manufacture of an adhesive composition.

2) Multicomponent system comprising, as first component (A), a composition comprising at least one such polyurethane prepolymer and, as second component (B), a composition comprising at least one curing agent having at least two primary amine (NH.sub.2) groups (B1).

3) Process for assembling materials employing the polyurethane prepolymer (PP2) according to the invention.

Provided is a polyurethane resin-forming composition for a membrane-sealing material, the polyurethane resin-forming composition contributing to formation of (1) a urethane resin that is excellent in moldability, has a suppressed elution amount of a low-molecular-weight reaction product, and has excellent appearance or (2) a urethane resin that has a low viscosity, is excellent in cast moldability, and has a reduced water elution amount of a low-molecular-weight reaction product and a reduced solvent elution amount of a molded product. The polyurethane resin-forming composition for a membrane-sealing material comprises: a polyisocyanate prepolymer (A) or an allophanate group-containing polyisocyanate prepolymer (A) comprising a reaction product of a diphenylmethane diisocyanate (a1-1) and/or a modified product of a diphenylmethane diisocyanate (a1-2), and an active hydrogen-containing compound (a2); and a castor oil polymerized polyol (b1) comprising a castor oil polymerization product.

The resealable bag has a main body including a resealing layer. The resealable bag is selectively positionable between an open, unsealed position and a closed, sealed position. When the resealable bag is in the closed, sealed position, the resealing layer is in a deformed shape. Advantageously, the resealable bag can be repeatedly rolled and sealed, and unrolled and unsealed, as desired without the use of additional integrated or non-integrated sealing mechanisms.

A curable composition capable of securing a waiting time after curing starts, and efficiently controlling the relevant waiting time is provided. The curable composition also controls a curing rate after the waiting time to suit the application. A battery module, a battery pack or an automobile comprising a cured product of the curable composition is also provided.

A biobased water repellent auxiliary agent and a method of manufacturing the same are provided. The biobased water repellent auxiliary agent includes a molecular complex composed of a polyurethane (PU) dendrimer and a water-based polyurethane dispersion (PUD). The PU dendrimer is formed by polymerizing a trifunctional-group-containing biobased material and an aliphatic linear isocyanate. The water-based PUD includes a monomer derived from the trifunctional-group-containing biobased material, a monomer derived from a cyclic isocyanate, and a monomer derived from a hydrophilic compound. The molecular complex is formed by copolymerizing the PU dendrimer, the trifunctional-group-containing biobased material, the cyclic isocyanate, and the hydrophilic compound.
