Description
DESCRIPTION
The present invention relates to novel polyurethane elastomers and methods for the preparation thereof. Polyurethane elastomers are made by reacting diisocyanates, such as toluene diisocyanate (TDI), 1,5-naphthalene diisocyanate (NDI) or 4,4'-diphenylmethane diisocyanate (4,4 '-MDl), with polyols of high molecular weight, such as polyester polyols or polyether polyols, and low molecular weight polyols or polyamines such as ethylene glycol or butanediol. The high molecular weight polyether polyols used are mainly polytetrahydrofuran or propylene oxide. It is also known to prepare elastomeric polyurethanes from polyether polyols containing minor amounts of ethylene oxide (EO) groups, see, for example, EP-A-13487. The formulations comprising high amounts of
4.4 '-MDl and polyether polyols having high contents of
EO have already been used to prepare flexible polyurethane foams, see, for example, EP-A-547764, EP-A-547765 and EP-A-549120. However, none of the known isocyanate-based elastomers shows satisfactory dynamic modulus behavior over a wide temperature range. Now a new class of polyurethane elastomers has been found which exhibit an almost perfect elastomeric behavior over a wide temperature range. Therefore, the present invention relates to polyisocyanate-based elastomers having a storage module ratio (E1) at 20 ° C and the storage module (E1) at 120 ° of between 0.75 and 1.5, a tan d of 100 ° C or less than 0.1 and a maximum value of tan d of more than 0.8, so d is the ratio of module loss (E ") and storage modulus (E1) .Preferably, the maximum value of tan d is more than 1.0 The ratio of the storage module (E1) at 20 ° C and the storage module (E ') at 120 ° C is preferably between 0.8 and 1.2, and more preferably between 0.85 and 1.1. gives 100 ° C of less than 0.05.
More preferably, the tan d at 100 ° C is less than 0.03. The maximum value of tan d is preferably presented at a temperature lower than 0 ° C, more preferably lower than the storage and loss modulus are measured by dynamic mechanical thermal analysis (DMTA, measured in accordance with ISO / DIS 6721-5) . These novel polyurethane elastomers can be manufactured from formulations containing polyols having high oxyethylene contents or polyol blends containing polyester polyols and high concentrations of polyols having high contents of oxyethylene, 4,4 '-MDl substantially pure or a derivative thereof, and a low molecular weight chain extender and optionally a crosslinking agent. Therefore, according to the invention, there is also provided a method for the preparation of polyurethane elastomers from a reaction mixture comprising a polyisocyanate component, a polyol composition, a chain extender and optionally a crosslinking agent. wherein the polyisocyanate component contains at least 85% by weight of 4,4'-diphenylmethane diisocyanate or a variant thereof, the polyol composition comprises at least one polyoxyalkylene polyol containing oxyethylene residues, the polyol composition it has an average nominal hydroxyl functionality from 2 to 4, an average hydroxyl equivalent weight from 500 to 7000 and an average oxyethylene content of between 50 and 85% by weight, and the chain extender has an average hydroxyl equivalent weight of up to 250.
The polyisocyanate component used in the invention can be any aromatic or aliphatic polyisocyanate such as TDI, NDI or pure 4,4'-diphenylmethane diisocyanate, or mixtures of that diisocyanate with one or more different organic polyisocyanates., especially other isomers of diphenylmethane diisocyanate, for example, the 2,4'-isomer optionally in conjunction with the 2,2'-isomer. The polyisocyanate component can also be a variant of MDl derived from a polyisocyanate composition containing at least 85% by weight of 4,4'-diphenylmethane diisocyanate. MDl variants are well known in the art and, for use in accordance with the invention, include particularly liquid products obtained by introducing uretonimine and / or carbodiimide groups into the polyisocyanate composition and / or reacting with one or more polyols. As the preferred polyisocyanate component are the polyisocyanate compositions containing at least 90% by weight of 4,4'-diphenylmethane diisocyanate. Most preferred are polyisocyanate compositions containing at least 95% by weight of 4,4'-diphenylmethane diisocyanate. The polyol composition may consist of one or more polyether polyols optionally mixed with other polyols such as polyester polyols. The composition may comprise a simple polyoxyalkylene polyol which is preferably a poly (oxyethylene-oxypropylene) polyol having the required functionality, equivalent weight and oxyethylene content. Such polyols are known in the art and can be obtained in a conventional manner by reacting ethylene and propylene oxides simultaneously and / or secondarily in any order with an initiator such as water, a polyol, a hydroxylamine, a polyamine and the like having 2. to 4 active hydrogen atoms. Alternatively, the polyol composition may comprise a mixture of two or more polyoxyalkylene polyols such that the total composition has the required average functionality, equivalent weight and oxyethylene content. The polyoxyalkylene polyols present in such mixtures are preferably poly (oxyethylene-oxypropylene) polyols, but one or more polyoxyethylene polyols and / or polyoxypropylene polyols may also be present. Preferred polyether polyol compositions comprise: (a) from 75 to 100% by weight of a first polyol component comprising at least one polyoxyalkylene polyol containing oxyethylene residues, the polyol component having an average nominal hydroxyl functionality from 2 up to 4, an average hydroxyl equivalent weight from 1000 to 5000 and an average oxyethylene content from 60 to 85% by weight, and
(b) from 25 to 0% by weight of another polyol component.
The polyol component (b) suitably has an average functionality from 2 to 4, an average equivalent weight from 1000 to 3000 and can be, for example, a polyoxypropylene polyol, a polyoxyethylene polyol or a poly (oxyethylene-oxypropylene) polyol. ) containing less than 60% or more than 85% by weight of oxyethylene residues. The term "average nominal hydroxyl functionality" is used herein to indicate the average functionality (number of hydroxyl groups per molecule) of the polyol composition on the assumption that the average functionality of the polyoxyalkylene polyols present therein is identical that the average functionality (number of active hydrogen atoms per molecule) of the initiator or initiators used in its preparation, although in practice it will often be a little lower due to some terminal unsaturation. It is preferred that the average nominal hydroxyl functionality of the polyol composition be from 2 to 3. If desired, the polyoxyalkylene polyol (or one or more of the polyoxyalkylene polyols when a mixture is used) may contain dispersed polymer particles. Such polymer modified polyols have been fully described in the prior art and include products defined by the in situ polymerization of one or more vinyl monomers, for example acrylonitrile and styrene, in polyoxyalkylene polyols or by the in situ reaction between a polyisocyanate and a compound with amino or hydroxy functionality, for example triethanolamine, in the polyoxyalkylene. Also suitable as the polyol (b) are the polyester polyols. Polyester polyols which may be used include hydroxyl-terminated reaction products of polyhydric alcohols such as ethylene glycol, propylene glycol, diethylene glycol, dipropylene glycol, 1,4-butanediol, bis (hydroxyethyl) terephthalate, glycerol, trimethylolpropane, hexanediol, neopentyl glycol, methylpentanediol, pentaerythritol, or polyether polyols or mixtures of such polyhydric alcohols and polycarboxylic acids, especially dicarboxylic acids or their ester-forming derivatives, for example, succinic, glutaric and adipic acids or their dimethyl esters, sebasic acid, phthalic anhydride, anhydride tetrachlorophthalic or dimethyl terephthalate, or mixtures thereof. Preferred polyesters have an average number of molecular weight of 750-4000, especially 750-2500, and an average nominal functionality of 2-3. Suitable chain extenders include low molecular weight diols, aminoalcohols or diamines such as ethylene glycol, diethylene glycol, dipropylene glycol, tripropylene glycol, propanediol, butanediol, pentanediol, hexanediol, 3-methylpentan-1,5-diol, ethanolamine or diethyltoluenediamine.
Low molecular weight isocyanate-reactive compounds having an average functionality of 3 or more, such as glycerol, pentaerythritol or triethanolamine can be added as crosslinking agents. It is preferred to add small amounts of water, more preferably less than 2% by weight, based on the total weight of the isocyanate reagent, to the formulation. The isocyanate index of the reaction system, considering the composition polyol, water and any other species reactive with isocyanate, for example chain extenders and optionally crosslinking agents, can be as low as 85 or as high as 120. Preferably the index of isocyanate is between 90 and 110. The most preferred isocyanate index is between 95 and 105. The elastomer-forming reaction mixture may contain one or more of the conventional additives to such reaction mixtures. Such additives include catalysts, for example tertiary amines and tin compounds, surfactants and foam stabilizers, for example siloxane-oxyalkylene copolymers, flame retardants, organic and inorganic fillers, pigments and internal mold release agents. The invention further provides a reaction system comprising: (a) a polyisocyanate component containing at least 85% by weight of 4,4'-diphenylmethane diisocyanate or a variant thereof; (b) a polyol composition comprising at least one polyoxyalkylene polyol containing oxyethylene residues, the polyol composition has an average nominal hydroxyl functionality of 2 to 4, an average nominal hydroxyl equivalent weight of 500 to 7000 and a content of average oxyethylene between 50 and 85% by weight; (c) a chain extender having an average hydroxyl equivalent weight of up to 250, and optionally,
(d) water, (e) a crosslinking agent, and (f) one or more conventional additives to elastomer formulations. This reaction system is used to make polyurethane elastomers. In carrying out the method of the invention, the known techniques of a shot, semi-prepolymer or complete prepolymer can be applied together with mixing equipment conventionally used in the preparation of elastomers. The elastomers according to the invention are particularly suitable for use in applications where good energy absorption and fatigue resistance properties are required, and good elastomeric behavior over a wide temperature range, for example in the automotive industry and of footwear. The invention is illustrated by the following examples in which all parts, percentages and proportions are by weight. The following glossary of materials is included to identify reaction components that are not otherwise identified in the examples.
