The present disclosure relates to an adhesive composition and a method of manufacturing a nonpneumatic tire using the same, and more specifically, to an adhesive composition comprising a linear structured prepolymer for polyurethane having a cyclic carbonate group at both ends thereof and a polyfunctional amine, and a method of manufacturing a nonpneumatic tire using the same.

Embodiments of the present technology may include a method of reducing leaching from a fiber-containing composite. The method may include forming an aqueous dispersion of fibers. The method may further include applying a binder composition to the aqueous dispersion of fibers to form a binder-fiber mixture. The binder composition may include a carbohydrate, a nitrogen-containing compound, and a catalyst that catalyzes the reaction between the carbohydrate and the nitrogen-containing compound. The catalyst may be water soluble before curing but water insoluble after curing. In addition, the method may include curing the binder-fiber mixture to form the fiber-containing composite.
