A polyether having a functional group that is reactive to isocyanate with at least one polyisocyanate, which has an average isocyanate functionality in the range of 2.4 to 3.5, and at least one vinyl compound, which has a functional group that is reactive to isocyanate, wherein the molar ratio of polyether to vinyl compound lies in the range of 3:1 to 1:3 and the ratio of the sum of the molar quantities of polyether and vinyl compounds to isocyanate groups lies in the range of 1.5:1 to U.5. Corresponding vinylterminated prepolymers have the advantage of low visocity together with good water solubility and therefore can be used advantageously for applications as injection agents.

A display film includes a transparent polymeric substrate layer and a transparent energy dissipation layer disposed on the transparent polymeric substrate layer. The transparent energy dissipation layer includes cross-linked polyurethane and a polyacrylate polymer. The transparent energy dissipation layer has a glass transition temperature of 27 degrees Celsius or less and a Tan Delta peak value of 0.5 or greater.

The present invention provides a stretchable film that is excellent in stretch and strength and water repellency on the film surface, and a method for forming the stretchable film. The present invention was accomplished by a stretchable film including a resin having a branched siloxane bond having 3 to 11 silicon atoms on a side chain and having a urethane bond on a main chain.

Nanoporous three-dimensional networks of polyurethane particles, e.g., polyurethane aerogels, and methods of preparation are presented herein. Such nanoporous networks may include polyurethane particles made up of linked polyisocyanate and polyol monomers. In some cases, greater than about 95% of the linkages between the polyisocyanate monomers and the polyol monomers are urethane linkages. To prepare such networks, a mixture including polyisocyanate monomers (e.g., diisocyanates, triisocyanates), polyol monomers (diols, triols), and a solvent is provided. The polyisocyanate and polyol monomers may be aliphatic or aromatic. A polyurethane catalyst is added to the mixture causing formation of linkages between the polyisocyanate monomers and the polyol monomers. Phase separation of particles from the reaction medium can be controlled to enable formation of polyurethane networks with desirable nanomorphologies, specific surface area, and mechanical properties. Various properties of such networks of polyurethane particles (e.g., strength, stiffness, flexibility, thermal conductivity) may be tailored depending on which monomers are provided in the reaction.

An aerogel according to the present invention is obtained by reacting silanol moieties on a surface of a clay; an isocyanate compound A; an isocyanate compound B; a cyclic ether compound; a solvent A; and a solvent B. Aerogels according to the present invention have good mechanical properties and good thermal insulation properties.
