A prepolymer of elastomer material for screw drilling tools and a preparation method thereof are provided. The prepolymer includes component A and component B, wherein the component A includes hydroxyl-terminated liquid rubber, polytetrahydrofuran diol, and polyether polyol; the component B includes at least one of an isocyanate, a cyanate, and a cyano compound; the mass ratio of the hydroxyl-terminated liquid rubber, polytetrahydrofuran diol, and polyether polyol is (0.2-1.0): (0.2-1.0): (0.2-1.0). Different molecular segments of different proportions are introduced through structural design, such that the molecular structure of the prepolymer has both rigid and flexible segments, thus to achieve an adjustable and controllable structure of the prepolymer; and the introduction of active groups makes the prepolymer to show good reactivity and processability. Therefore, a reactive elastomer material having excellent properties such as hardness, tear strength, and tensile strength can be obtained used as an elastomer material for screw drilling tools.

Provided herein are adhesive compositions comprising a polyurea-poly(meth)acrylate interpenetrating polymer network. Further provided are two-part curable adhesive compositions comprising a Part A initiator composition and a Part B activator composition. The Part A initiator composition comprises an organoborane-amine complex and the Part B activator composition comprises an isocyanate that is reactive with the amine portion of the organoborane-amine complex to liberate organoborane from the organoborane-amine complex. Further provided are methods of using an adhesive composition comprising a polyurea-poly(meth)acrylate interpenetrating polymer network, such as, for example, in joining and/or bonding together polyolefin materials (e.g., polypropylene random copolymer (PP-R) pipes).

Some embodiments are directed to a fire-resistant polyurethane material including a plurality of polyol reactive elements and a plurality of diisocyanate reactive elements and at least one diamine or diol reactive element operating as a chain extender of the polyurethane. A chain extender of at least the polyurethane material includes a phosphorous-containing oligomer element of a predefined length having a value within a dispersion interval, which is also predefined. Some embodiments also relate to polyurethanes obtained by implementing the method.

The present invention relates to novel hydroxyl-terminated polyisobutylenes and methods of making and using them. The hydroxyl-terminated polyisobutylenes contain a sulfur unit, S, within each terminal end group. The well-defined, sulfur containing, primary hydroxyl-terminated polyisobutylenes of the present invention can be simply, rapidly, and essentially quantitatively obtained by subjecting the unsaturated telechelic PIBs and mercapto alcohols to UV light-activated thiol-ene reactions. The resultant sulfur containing, primary hydroxyl-terminated polyisobutylenes can then be used in the production of polyurethanes and like materials.

Compositions for golf balls that include polyurethane and polyurea linkages and that are crosslinked in the soft segments of the polymer backbone. In particular, the compositions of the invention, which are based on a polyurethane and/or polyurea prepolymers, have improved crosslink density from the crosslinking between the soft, unsaturated segments of the polymer backbone. The curative blend includes at least one isocyanate-reactive component and a free radical initiator.
