Description

SPECIFICATION Improvements in or relating to thermosetting polyurethanes The present invention relates to improvements in thermosetting polyurethanes and, in particular, to polyurethane products which are readily deformable, possessing delayed recovery characteristics. The soft deformable materials made in accordance with this invention are further characterised by having low compression set with high, temperature-insensitive damping over a broad temperature range.
Soft polyurethanes having delayed recovery, after compression, have been described in British Patent Specification No. 1564195. These polyurethanes contain free hydroxyl groups and are formed by reacting a polyol with an isocyanate in less than stoichiometric amount.
Soft polyurethane can also be produced by introducing a significant excess of polyisocyanate over that which is required for stoichiometric equivalence. The excess isocyanate acts as plasticiser, but can only do so if moisture is prevented from coming into contact with the product. Clearly such products have little practical value.
Accordingly, the present invention provides a thermoset polyurethane material which exhibits high, temperature-insensitive damping over a broad temperature range and has a tan 3 (as hereinafter defined) greater than 0.1 over the temperature range of from -40 C to 60or, a hardness in the range of from 0 to 90 shore A, a compression set (as hereinafter defined) of less than 15% and a tensile strength (as hereinafter defined), of less than 30 kg/cm2, the polyurethane material being prepared by the reaction of (a) an essentially primary hydroxyl tipped polyol having a molecular weight in the range of from 2,500 to 8,000; (b) a polyhydric alcohol; (c) an aliphatic monohydric primary alcohol containing up to 10 carbon atoms; and (d) a polyisocyanate, the reaction being carried out at an isocyanate index of 1.0 or greater.
The thermoset polyurethane of the present invention has a tan 3, measured by the method as hereinafter defined, greater than 0.1, preferably greater than 0.2 and more preferably greater than 0.3, when measured over the temperature range of from -40 C to 60"C.
The polyurethane of the present invention has a compression set, measured by the method as hereinafter defined, of less than 15% preferably less than 10%, and a tensile strength, measured by the method as hereinafter defined, of less than 30 kg/cm2 preferably less than 20 kg/cm2.
The polyol should have a functionality in the range of from 2 to 6, and preferably, 2 to 3. the polyol has a molecular weight in the range of from 2,500 to 8,000, preferably 2,500 to 4,000.
The soft, readily deformable polyurethanes which are the subject of the present invention may be formulated to improve their energy damping characteristics. Such materials are lightly crosslinked polyurethanes but, unlike polyurethanes described in British Patent Specification No. 1564195, are fully reacted so that, for all practical purposes, there is neither an excess of polyol nor of polyisocyanate. the polyurethanes of the present invention thus do not contain free hydroxyl groups.
As is known in the art, the rate of hardness build-up of a polyurethane is controlled by several factors, one of which is the isocyanate index. It is known, for example, that the hardness build-up is faster at an isocyanate index of 1.01 compared to the hardness build-up at an isocyanate index of 1.05. Hence an optimum may be regarded to exist at an isocyanate index of approximately 1.03.Similarly, as is known to those skilled in the art, the properties of polyurethanes may be modified by altering the structure of the polymer, or by introducing fillers and plasticisers, or by any combination of the aforementioned. the catalysts which may be used to form the polyurethanes of the present invention are those well known in polyurethane technology; for example, tertiary amines, derivatives of tin, lead, mercury, iron, nickel or cobalt, or synergistic blends of tertiary amines and one or more of the aforementioned metal derivatives.
The properties of the polyurethanes produced in accordance with the present invention are regulated by changing the ratio of the short chain diol to monohydric alcohol at a fixed or given polyol content. By doing so the hardness of the product may be varied from that of a dimensionally unstable semi-solid to that of solids having a hardness as high as 90 Shore A approximately. Products having a hardness of from 0 to 20 Shore A are preferred. the products are normally formed by carrying out the reaction at normal ambient temperature, but higher curing temperatures may be used to facilitate more rapid crosslinking. It will be appreciated that although stoichiometric amounts of polyisocyanates are preferred, it is possible to use slightly above the required amount of polyisocyanate without markedly affecting the properties of the products normally obtained.
Also, as isknown in the art, the prepolymer route may be used to form the polyurethanes instead of the one-shot route described above. It is also possible to consider using an isocyanate- tipped prepolymer as a partial or total replacement for the polyisocyanate.
Examples of polyisocyanates which are suitable for use in accordance with the present invention include diphenylmethane diisocyanate (MDI); polymeric MDI; tolylene diisocyanate: cycloaliphatic diisocyanates, e.g. dicyclohexylmethane diisocyanate: hexamethylene diisocyanate; paraphenylene diisocyanate, and trans-1, 4-cyclohexane diisocyanate.
The polyhydric alcohols which may be used in the present invention include glycerol; 1,4-butanediol, pentaerythritol; trimethylolpropane; 1,2-propylene glycol; 1,6 hexanediol; 2-ethyl hexane 1,3-diol, the bis (hydroxyethylether) of the hydroquinone and tetra functional polyhydric alcohols, such as 1, 1', 1", 1"' ethylenedinitrilotetra-(2-propanol)sold commercially under the Trade Name of Pluriol Q by BASF. The polyhydric alcohol is preferably a short chain diol and those which are preferred for use in this invention are those in which all of the hydroxyl groups are primary hydroxyl groups, for example 1,4-butanediol. In some circumstances polyhydric alcohols can be used in which the hydroxyl groups are secondary, or a combination in the molecule of primary and secondary hydroxyl groups.
Examples of suitable aliphatic monohydric primary alcohols are C,-C0 aliphatic primary alcohols, particularly those in the range of C,-C6 i.e., methyl alcohol to n-hexanol. A monohydric ether alcohol of equivalent weight 155 known as Thinner PU made by Bayer AG is also suitable for this application. Other monohydric species, for example thiols or mercaptans, may also be incorporated as a partial or complete replacement for the aliphatic monohydric primary alcohols. Blends of aliphatic monohydric primary alcohols may also be used.
it will be understood by thos skilled in the art that the polyurethanes of the present invention may be converted to cellular products by any of the means which are known in the art; for example by the release of gas which has been dissolved in the material by application of high pressure, or by the introduction of a low boiling point fluid, whose vapour pressure is markedly increased by either the external application of heat or by the chemical exotherm which occurs during polymerisation of the polyurethane or by the introduction of a reactive fluid, which causes a gas to be evolved, for example water, which upon reaction with the polyisocyanate causes carbon dioxide to be released. These cellular products may be substantially either open cell or closed-cell. furthermore cellular products with an integral skin may also be produced from the polyurethanes of the present invention.The methods of producing cellular materials using mechanical frothing and syntactic foams with microspheres are also suitable.
A convenient way which has been found to enable polyurethanes to be produced which cover a broad hardness range, without resorting to making a specific formulation for each hardness required, is to produce two master batch stocks from which, upon blending in the appropriate proportions, a material having intermediate properties may be obtained. this is further achieved by formulating each master batch of each pair in such a way that each one requires the same amount of polyisocyanates to give stoichiometric equivalence. Examples of this procedure are given later.
We have referred above to the fundamental role which the aliphatic monohydric primary alcohol, or blend of monohydric alcohols, play in the present invention. By systematically altering the structure of the monohydric alcohol a progressive change is observed in the compression set, the hardness and the elongation at break of the corresponding polyurethanes.
This is illustrated by the following Examples. in these Examples the following experimental techniques were used.
(1) Tan 8 measurements Tan 8 which is defined as the loss factor in International Standard Reference Number 1SO 2856-1975 (E) is a measure of the damping behaviour of a material.
The measurements were made using a Dynamic Mechanical Thermal Analyser (DMTA) made by Polymer Laboratories, Church Stretton, England. The test conditions normally used were: Bending mode 1 Hz Test Frequency 2oC/min Heating Rate Start Temperature = - 80 C Finish Temperature = + 80 C (2) Tensile Strength and Elongation These were determined in accordance with the procedure described in B.S. 903, Part A2 (1971) (3) Compression set These measurements were made using B.S. 903, Part A6 (1969) but the conditions were amended to: 25% strain at 40"C for 20 hours.
(4) Hardness The measurements were made using the hand held hardness meters made by Shore of the USA. Two hardness scales were normally used, Shore A and Shore 00. the extremes of these scales are the same, i.e. Shore A 'O' is equivalent to Shore 00 '0' and Shore A '100' is equivalent to Shore 00 '100'. Shore 00 is used to measure the softer materials because the range Shore A 0-20 is covered by Shore 00 0-70 so that greater sensitivity is achieved.
In the Examples all parts and percentages are by weight unless otherwise stated.
Example 1 Two master batch formulations designated TN43 and TN44 comprising the following were produced.
TN43 TN44 (gm) (gm) Hydroxy-terminated polybutadiene 715.9 715.9 n-Butanol 30.0 0.0 1,4 butanediol 0.0 18.2 Zeolith 50.0 50.0 Millicarb (Calcium Carbonate) 325.2 325.2 Dabco 33 LV (t-amine catalyst 4.0 4.0 Silcolapse (Silicone antifoam) 3.2 3.2 Di-octyl phthalate 271.7 283.5 Total (gm) 1,400 1,400 Desmodur VL (crude MDI) 140 1400 Mix ratio weight'weight 10.0:1.0 10.0:1.0 It should be noted that TN43 is the master batch which contains the monohydric alcohol. Derivative formulations of TN43 were produced whereby the n-butanol was replaced with a molecular equivalent quantity of methyl alcohol, ethyl alcohol, n-propanol, and n-hexanol. For the purposes of the present example a constant ratio of the two master batches was used, namely 6 to 4 respectively.It will be appreciated that in changing the monohydric alcohol the equivalent weight of the monohydric alcohol which is present in the formulation also changes. In order to obtain constancy of weight of the master batch formulation TN43, any slight adjustment necessary was made by altering the weight of di-octyl phthalate.
TN43 was mixed with TN44 in the proportions of 6 to 4 parts by weight, respectively. Ten parts by weight of the combined master batch was mixed with one part by weight of Desmodur VL and the following properties were obtained: TABLE 1 Monohydric Tensile Elongation Compression Shore 00 Alcohol Strength to break 25%strain Hardness kg/cm2 (%) at 40"C for 20hers. {%) methyl alcohol 10.7 81.3 4.9 61 ethyl alcohol 8.9 72 6.9 57 n-propanol 14.0 93.3 9.0 43 n-butanol 9.3 105.7 9.2 45 n-hexanol 7.4 133.3 9.6 40 It can be seen from Table I that the compression set changes monotonically with increasing hydrocarbon chain length of the aliphatic alcohol.
The hardness of the product decreases as the chain length of the aliphatic alcohol increases, a plateau is reached with n-propanol and increasing the chain length does not significantly effect the hardness.
The elongation to break increases as the chain length increases.
Example Il The product properties of the polyurethane material are influenced by changing the ratios of the reactive components viz the proportion of polyol: polyhydric alcohol: monofunctional primary alcohol.
The following examples show these effects using hydroxy terminatesd polybutadiene as the polyol, 1,4-butanediol as the polyhydric alcohol and n-butanol as the primary mono-functional alcohol.

Table II shows the effect of changing the butanediol to butanol ratio at the 40% polybd level on tan 8.
the tan 8 levels increase as the percentage of butanol is increased and at the high level of 39% butanol the tan 8 levels are 0.30 or above across the temperature range -60 C to + 60"C.

By selecting the appropriate formulations, or combination of two master batches, for sample EL45 and EL46, it is possible to vary the product from a hard, tough solid through to a semi-solid which has poor or negligible dimensional stability.
The semi-solids have applications in enclosed anti-vibration devices. The solids have similar applications where shock loading or energy requirements are encountered, and the low compression set grades have obvious uses in seals and other devices where resistance to set is important, particularly, but not excessively, where this property is to be combined with a low modulus in compression, for example less than 10 MN/m2 at 50% compression and more particularly, less than 2MN/m2 at 50% compression.
