Description
"SOFT THERMOPLASTIC POLYURETHANE COMPOSITION"
1. FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The invention relates to a mild thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) composition, and more particularly, to a low Shore A hardness TPU composition, that is, soft, having high abrasion resistance.
2. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Rigid thermoplastic materials such as ABS, nylon 6 loaded and filled with glass and polycarbonate, are used for a variety of engineering and / or structural applications such as power tool housings, and baggage grips or handles, gear shifts, automotive pedals, etc. For many of these applications, there is a need to cover over or bond these articles to a soft elastomeric layer. This layer serves to provide an ergonomic, comfortable feel, reduced slippage and increased abrasion resistance. Ideally, this combination of "hard" and "soft" materials is produced through a thermoforming operation such as co-injection molding, multi-layer extrusion or blow molding. U.S. Patent No. 5,149,979 is directed to a shaped article and method for making this article. The article consists of a base produced from a first thermoplastic polymer. An attachment produced from a second thermoplastic polymer is welded to the upper part of the base. One or both of the first polymer and the second polymer should contain from 5 percent to 75 percent by weight, based on the mixture, of an olefin homopolymer and / or copolymer. Typical examples would include an engineered thermoplastic power tool body with a handle grip produced from an elastomer such as TPU, Santoprene or the like. Unfortunately, the article disclosed in the "979 Patent" provides insufficient abrasion resistance in the elastomeric portion as well as being too hard for most uses that would require an elastomeric overlay. Until now, most of the thermoplastic elastomers with the required softness (<Shore A 90) to be useful as a soft coating, including propylene and EPDM polymers based on ethylene, styrenic block co-ter- or copolymers and plasticized PVC had insufficient adhesion to the rigid thermoplastic substrate unless they were fixed using separate adhesives or mechanical interlacing. Unfortunately, these TPEs have insufficient abrasion resistance for engineering applications. Even with the desired Shore hardness, good adhesion and abrasion resistance, plasticized TPU (TPU mixed with phthalate esters such as DOP) is unacceptable due to the tendency of the plasticizer to migrate to the thermoplastic substrate and cause cracking. effort.
2. COMPENDIUM OF THE INVENTION

The polyhydroxy compound should at least be predominantly linear, i.e., difunctional within the meaning of the isocyanate reaction. The polyhydroxy compounds mentioned can be used as individual components or in the form of mixtures. Suitable polyetherols can be prepared from one or more alkylene oxides having from 2 to 4 carbon atoms in the alkylene residue, in a conventional manner, for example, by anionic polymerization with alkali metal hydroxides, such as sodium hydroxide. or potassium hydroxide, or the alkali metal alcoholates, such as sodium methoxide, sodium ethoxide, potassium ethoxide or potassium isopropoxide, as catalysts and in the presence of at least one initiator molecule containing from 2 to 3, preference 2 reactive hydrogen atoms, or by cationic polymerization with Lewis acids, such as antimony pentachloride, boron fluoride etherate, etc. or bleaching earth, as catalysts.

To adjust the hardness index, the forming components can be varied within relatively large molar ratios keeping in mind that the Hardness increases with the increased level of chain lengthening agents. To prepare relatively soft TPUs, which are especially preferred for use in the present invention, for example, those having a Shore A hardness of less than 90, it is advantageous to use the essentially difunctional polyhydroxy compounds (b) and the diols ( c) in a molar ratio of 1: 1 to 1: 4.5, preferably from 1: 5 to 2.4: 0 so that the resulting mixtures of (b) and (c) have an equivalent hydroxy weight greater than 200 , in particular from 239 to 450, as long as it is greater than 200, in particular from 239 to 450.
