The adhesive composition is the reaction product of a polyisocyanate and a polyol, or a polyurethane prepolymer derived therefrom, and a polyamine curative and optionally additional polyol, and with optionally added plasticizer. At least one of the polyisocyanate, the prepolymer, and the polyamine are blocked with a blocking agent. The belt body may be of cast polyurethane, vulcanized rubber, or thermoplastic elastomer. The cord may have an adhesive overcoat.

An isocyanate composition according to the present invention contains: a difunctional or more-functional isocyanate compound; and 1.0 ppm by mass to 1.0×10.sup.4 ppm by mass, based on the isocyanate compound, of a compound having at least one unsaturated bond excluding unsaturated bonds constituting an aromatic ring, the compound being different from the isocyanate.

Provided is a method for producing a resin lens, comprising: A) mixing a polyisocyanate, a modified isocyanate, a catalyst and a release agent, and performing vacuum defoaming at 0˜30° C. for 10˜90 min to obtain a material a; B) mixing the material a with a sulfur-containing compound, and performing vacuum defoaming at 15˜20° C. for 20˜120 min to obtain mixed monomers; and C) completing casting of the mixed monomers, and curing to obtain a resin lens. The present disclosure uses polyisocyanate and a modified isocyanate at the same time to prepare a resin lens with higher glass transition temperature and higher surface hardness without producing bank mark and edge fogging. The present disclosure further provides a method for producing modified isocyanate. The obtained modified isocyanate used with polyisocyanate further improves the glass transition temperature and surface hardness of the resin lens without producing bank mark and edge fogging.

Disclosed is an oligomer or polymer obtained by reacting at least one monomeric, oligomeric or polymeric isocyanate having two or more isocyanate groups with 2-hydroxy-3-butenoic acid and/or at least one alkyl ester of 2-hydroxy-3-butenoic acid.
