TPU for RTM

Patent Title: THERMOPLASTIC PUR WITH HIGH TG FOR REACTION TRANSFER MOLDING (RTM)

 Number/Link: WO2018/050433

Applicant/Assignee:  Henkel

Publication date: 22 march 2018

“Gist”:  High Tg TPU from polycyclic diols

Why it is interesting: The invention is about thermoplastic polyurethanes with high Tg and high stiffness that are useful for fiber-reinforced composites made by (reactive) resin transfer moulding.  The TPU is prepared from an isocyanate, a conventional diol chain extender and at least 25% (w/w) of a bridged- fused- or spiro- polycyclic diol. In the examples MDI is reacted with 1,2-propanediol or 2,3-butandiol and 4,8-bis(hydroxymethyl)tricyclo[5.2.1.02,6]decane. The resulting TPUs show a Tg of more than 135°C.
