摘要 |
A polyahl comprising a backbone having at least one acyclic moiety selected from the group consisting of urea, biuret, thiourea, dithiobiuret, amide, and thioamide; and at least two polyalkyleneoxy moieties; and at least one terminal hydroxyalkyl carbamate group is disclosed. These polyahls may be prepared by contacting a modified polyamide compound containing in its backbone at least one acyclic moiety selected from the group consisting of urea, biuret, thiourea, dithiobiuret, amide, and thioamide wherein the amino groups are sufficiently spaced apart from each other that they do not undergo reaction with a single alkylene carbonate moiety to form a cyclic urea moiety, with a cyclic alkylene carbonate, in amounts thereof and under conditions effective to form the polyahl. Prepolymers and polymers prepared from such polyahls are also disclosed.
