BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Field of the Invention
This invention relates to adhesives that contain the polyurethane prepolymer, that are liquid at room temperature and that do not exhibit phase separation under common storage and use conditions, and that can be cured by exposing them to moisture or curing agents that contain active hydrogen. Polyurethane prepolymer adhesives have surprisingly good adhesion to plastics, such as glass fiber reinforced plastics (FRP).

The 0003] Polyurethane adhesive that can be cured with humidity, liquid can be modified by some additives. For example, plasticizer oils have been used in the past to improve the rheology of such a polyurethane adhesive. Adhesion promoters have also been used in the past to improve the adhesion of such a polyurethane adhesive to substrates. However, in some cases, the use of plasticizer oil leads to phase separation, which is unwanted.
In the context of hot melt adhesives, which change phase depending on the temperature to which they are exposed, polyurethane-based materials are known, which can be cured with moisture. For example, Henkel Corporation has been responsible for advances in such technology as defined and claimed, for example, in US Patent Nos. 6,136,136 (Heidler), 6,221,978 (Li) and 6,635,722 (Li).

Although liquid, moisture curable polyurethane adhesives have been in industrial use for several decades, they can be improved. For example, bonding to plastics like FRP can sometimes be difficult. Producing an adhesive like these also requires high processing temperatures, which translates into higher than desired energy costs. The stability of an adhesive like this can also be improved. It would be desirable to have polyurethane adhesives that can be cured with moisture, liquids, which can be produced at lower processing temperatures, that have better stability and better adhesion to plastics like FRP.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The present invention provides a polyurethane prepolymer adhesive composition consisting of a reaction product obtained by reacting a

INDUSTRIAL
<img file="MX337908B_D0015.tif" />
stoichiometric excess of at least one polyfunctional isocyanate with at least one polyol; at least one liquid paraffinic oil; and at least one aromatic oil.
Surprisingly, it has been found that such liquid, moisture curable polyurethane oil can be prepared at a temperature of 170 ° F, with good stability (eg, showing little to no phase separation or turbidity), and good adhesion to substrates like FRP. Liquid, moisture curable polyurethane adhesives come from the same polyisocyanate and polyol reactant system without liquid paraffinic oil or aromatic oil being unstable or showing poor adhesion to substrates such as FRP.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Liquid, moisture-curable polyurethane can be prepared by reacting an excess amount of polyisocyanate with polyol. During and after application, unreacted isocyanate groups react with moisture that is on or within substrates and in the atmosphere to form a thermoset system. The bond made with such adhesives offers excellent resistance to chemicals, solvents,

The present invention provides a polyurethane prepolymer adhesive consisting of a reaction product obtained by reacting a stoichiometric excess of at least one polyfunctional isocyanate with at least one polyol; at least one liquid paraffinic oil; and at least one aromatic oil.
The reactants that are used to synthesize the polyurethane prepolymer must be chosen so that the resulting polyurethane prepolymer is liquid at room temperature. The polyurethane prepolymer can be substantially linear in structure, with little or no branching. The polyurethane prepolymer is terminated with NCO (isocyanate) groups and typically has an isocyanate content of from about 1 to about 20 weight percent or from about 5 to about 15 weight percent. The viscosity of the polyurethane prepolymer is typically from about 1000 to about 25,000 centipoise at 25 ° C.

The liquid, moisture curable polyurethane adhesive of this invention, if desired, may also include additives such as catalysts, plasticizing oils, colorants, fillers, UV dyes, rheology modifiers (e.g. (eg, thickeners), foam control agents, blowing (blowing) agents, dehydrating agents, coupling agents, adhesion promoting agents, other types of polyurethane prepolymers, additional polyisocyanate, and other non-reactive or reactive additives , and any other additive known to an expert in the field of liquid polyurethane adhesives.

(normal). For significant amount in this context, the adhesive contains less than 1% by weight, such as less than 0.5% by weight, and desirably less than 0.1% by weight of solvent.
The liquid polyurethane prepolymer can be cured by combining and reacting the prepolymer with one or more active hydrogen containing curing agents. The adhesive can thus be formulated as a two-component (2K) system, where a first component is composed of the prepolymer and the second component is composed of the curing agent, storing the components separately but then combining them shortly before using the mix as an adhesive. Curing agents can be selected to be reactive with the prepolymer even at room temperature, curing beginning to take place as soon as the components are mixed together. However, the curing agent may be latent, that is, practically nonreactive with the prepolymer at room temperature, but may be activated by heating the adhesive mixture to an elevated temperature. The use of a latent curing agent allows the storage stable adhesive formulation to be cured by heating.

The term "active hydrogen containing curing agent" when used herein includes any organic compound that has at least two active hydrogens per molecule, with the ability to react with isocyanate groups present in the polyurethane prepolymer. For the purpose of this invention, active hydrogen refers to a hydrogen atom which, due to its position in the molecule, exhibits significant activity according to the Zerewitnoff test described by Wohler, J. Am. Chem. Soc, Vol. 49, p. 3181 (1927). Examples of active hydrogen containing portions are -COOH (carboxylic acid), -OH (hydroxyl), -NH<sub>2</sub> (primary amino), -NH- (secondary amino), -CONH<sub>2</sub> (amido), -SH (thiol) and -CONH- (amido). Preferred active hydrogen containing compounds may be polyols, polyamines, mercaptans, and polyacids, which may be monomeric, oligomeric, and / or polymeric. For example, it is possible to use polyether polyols, polyester polyols, as well as polyether ester polyols. Examples of amino group-containing curing agents may be aromatic and aliphatic diamines, primary and secondary amine terminated polyether polyols, and difunctional, trifunctional, and polymeric amines.

With the polyurethane prepolymer it can be selected and varied according to need to obtain the desired characteristics and properties of the cured adhesive. For example, the stoichiometric ratio of active hydrogen groups to isocyanate groups can be in the range of from about 0.5: 1 to about 1.5: 1.
In one embodiment of the invention, partial cure of the polyurethane prepolymer is accomplished by reaction with one or more active hydrogen-containing curing agents, with further cure being obtained by reaction of the remaining isocyanate groups with moisture.
The inventive liquid, moisture-curable, polyurethane adhesive should have a viscosity of 1,000 cps to 25,000 cps, such as 1,000 cps to 10,000 cps, and desirably 2,000 cps to 8,000 cps.
Since the polyurethane prepolymer contains reactive isocyanate groups, it is desirable to keep the prepolymer in an environment protected from moisture during storage, for example, in a sealed, dry, and moisture-proof container until ready. ... il. saw. λ · »

ready to be dosed and applied to a substrate surface is one way to achieve this goal.
Liquid, moisture-curable polyurethane adhesive can be applied to substrate surfaces using known application techniques including, but not limited to, brushing, roller coating, extrusion, and spraying. The surface of the substrate can be coated with the adhesive to form a continuous or discontinuous layer of the adhesive on the surface of the substrate, the thickness of such a layer is controlled as desired based on the chosen properties of the final assembly containing the cured adhesive. Typically, the adhesive layer will be from about 0.01 to about 0.5mm thick. After application of the adhesive layer, a surface of a second substrate may contact the adhesive layer (such contact will preferably be enhanced by the application of pressure) to form an assembly of a first substrate and a second substrate with the layer adhesive between these.
Curing of the liquid, moisture-curable polyurethane adhesive can be carried out using various conditions. In particular, the curing i ha hi hahS ^

The data shown in Table 2 demonstrate the following surprising results. Without oily additives, the adhesive has good stability but does not have good adhesion to the FRP substrate. The aromatic oil additive only helps the stability of the adhesive but not the adhesion to FRP. Aliphatic mineral oil as an additive alone does not generate a stable prepolymer system. The combination of the aromatic oil and aliphatic mineral oil additives generate a stable prepolymer system that shows good adhesion to the FRP substrate as well.
