Abstract

A composition comprising: a) one or more isocyanate functional prepolymers; and b) one or more compounds containing one or more hydroperoxide groups; wherein components a) and b) are kept separate until cure is desired. The composition can be used in the form of a two part adhesive.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A composition comprising two parts A and B:
wherein part A includes,
a) from 10 to 70 percent by weight of one or more isocyanate functional prepolymers which are the reaction product of an excess on an equivalents basis of one or more polyisocyanates with one or more compounds having two or more active hydrogen containing groups;
b) from 0.05 to 5.0 percent by weight of one or more compounds containing one or more cycloaliphatic tertiary amino groups;
c) from 5 to 35 percent by weight of one or more plasticizers; and,
d) from 1 to 40 percent by weight of one or more fillers;
wherein Part B comprises,
e) from 0.05 to 5 percent by weight of one or more compounds containing one or more hydroperoxide groups;
wherein the composition may include
f) from 0 to 70 percent by weight of one or more compounds containing acrylate groups located in part A, part B or a combination thereof; the equivalents ratio of one or more compounds containing one or more hydroperoxide groups to one or more compounds containing one or more cycloaliphatic tertiary amino groups is about 50:1 to about 100:1 and the amounts are based on the weight of the composition.

2. A composition according to claim 1 wherein the composition comprises:
a) from 30 to 50 percent by weight of one or more isocyanate functional prepolymers;
b) from 0.1 to 1.0 percent by weight of one or more compounds containing cycloaliphatic tertiary amino groups;
c) from 0.1 to 2.0 percent by weight of one or more compounds containing hydroperoxide groups; and
d) from 5 to 40 percent by weight of one or more compounds containing acrylate groups;
wherein the equivalents ratio of one or more compounds containing one or more hydroperoxide groups to one or more compounds containing one or more cycloaliphatic tertiary amino groups is about: 50:1 to about 100:1 and the amounts are based on the weight of the composition.

3. A composition according to claim 1 wherein the composition exhibits a G′ modulus of 0.5 MPa or greater fifteen minutes after contacting the separated parts of the composition.

4. A method comprising:
i) contacting the separated parts of the composition according to claim 1 ;
ii) contacting the contacted composition of i) with a first substrate;
iii) contacting the first substrate with a second substrate with the composition of i) disposed between the two substrates;
iv) allowing the composition of i) to cure and bond the two substrates together.

5. A method according to claim 4 wherein the two parts are mixed before contacting with the first substrate.

6. A method according to claim 4 wherein after step iii) the contacted substrates are exposed to elevated temperatures to accelerate the cure of the composition of i).

7. A method according to claim 4 wherein the first substrate is glass or transparent plastic, wherein the glass or transparent plastic may have an organic or ceramic enamel frit located about the periphery of the glass or transparent plastic and the second substrate is plastic or metal which may be coated.

8. A method according to claim 4 wherein the composition of i) exhibits a G′ modulus of 0.5 MPa or greater fifteen minutes after contacting the separated parts of the composition.

9. A composition according to claim 1 which includes one or more polyfunctional isocyanates in part A.

10. A composition according to claim 9 wherein the composition includes one or more polyfunctional isocyanates are present in an amount of about 0.5 to about 8 percent by weight.

11. A composition according to claim 1 which includes one or more adhesion promoters in part A, part B or both.

12. A composition according to claim 11 wherein the one or more adhesion promoters are present in an amount of about 0.1 to about 10 percent by weight.

13. A composition according to claim 1 which further comprises one or more compounds, oligomers or polymers containing one or more acrylate groups.

14. A composition according to claim 1 wherein the one or more isocyanate containing prepolymers contain from about 0.1 to about 35 percent by weight of free isocyanate groups.

15. A composition according claim 1 wherein the composition is a two part adhesive.

16. A composition according claim 2 wherein the composition a) from 30 to 60 percent by weight of one or more isocyanate functional prepolymers.
