The present invention relates to a polyurethane microcellular elastomer, a non-pneumatic tire and a preparation process and use thereof. The polyurethane microcellular elastomer of the present invention is obtained by reaction of a reaction system comprising components such as isocyanate, ethylene diamine-started polyoxypropylene ether tetraol, a catalyst and a foaming agent. The non-pneumatic tire of the present invention has very strong fatigue resistance and can be used for non-motor vehicles running at high speed.

Provided are adhesives containing a phenoxy resin grafted with methyl methacrylate (MMA) and/or methacrylic acid (MAA), and including a uretdione or a silane. The adhesive compositions are completely or substantially absent free isocyanate. The grafted phenoxy resin forms crosslinking which allows the adhesive to chemisorb to a metal surface, diffuse and entangle in a urethane elastomer and/or provide crossbridging and/or crosslinking across an interface of the adhesive and a cast urethane. Methods of adhering a castable urethane to a substrate, using the provided adhesives, are also provided.
