Polyurea sag control agent in polytrimethylene ether diol
View Patent ↗The present disclosure relates to a sag control composition consisting essentially of the reaction product of an amine and a polyisocyanate and polytrimethylene ether diol. The sag control composition can be used for providing further compositions that have excellent sag resistance, especially on vertical surfaces. The sag control composition can also provide compositions having a relatively lower content of organic solvent when compared to previously known sag control compositions.
1. A composition consisting of:
A) polytrimethylene ether diol; and
B) a polyurea sag control agent consisting essentially of the reaction product of an amine and a polyisocyanate, wherein the amine is essentially free from fluorinated amines.
2. A composition consisting of:
A) polytrimethylene ether diol;
B) a polyurea sag control agent consisting essentially of the reaction product of an amine and a polyisocyanate, wherein the amine is essentially free from fluorinated amines; and
C) one or more organic solvents.
3. The composition of claim 1 wherein the polytrimethylene ether diol is derived from 1,3-propanediol that is obtained via the fermentation of a renewable resource.
4. The composition of claim 1 wherein the number average molecular weight of the polytrimethylene ether diol is in the range of from 250 to 10,000.
5. The composition of claim 1 wherein the polytrimethylene ether diol is derived from in the range of from 50 percent by weight to 100 percent by weight of 1,3-propane diol monomers and in the range of from 0 percent by weight to 50 percent by weight of other diols.
6. The composition of claim 5 wherein the other diols are selected from the group consisting of ethane diol, hexane diol, 2-methyl-1,3-propanediol, 2,2-dimethyl-1,3-propanediol and a combination thereof.
