FREEZE-STABLE AROMATIC DIISOCYANATES AND PROCESSES FOR THE PREPARATION OF THESE FREEZE-STABLE PRODUCTS

摘要

This invention relates to freeze-stable aromatic diisocyanates, an to processes for the preparation of these freeze-stable aromatic diisocyanates. The preferred aromatic diisocyanate is preferably diphenylmethane diisocyanate. These freeze-stable aromatic diisocyanates comprise a blend of an aromatic diisocyanate, with 2,2,4- trimethyl-1,3-pentanediol diisobutyrate, and have an NCO group content of from about 6% to about 29% by weight. Suitable aromatic diisocyanates contain one or more of the following modifying groups: allophanate groups, carbodiimide groups, uretonimine groups, biuret groups, dimer groups, isocyanurate groups, urea groups and/or urethane groups. Prepolymers of these modified aromatic diisocyanates are also suitable for the present invention.
