Abstract

A composition comprising: a one part adhesive composition comprising a) one or more isocyanate functional components; b) one or more catalysts for the reaction of isocyanate groups with active hydrogen containing groups; c) one or more fillers which do not enhance the formation of voids during curing; d) one or more fillers having basic character; and a cure accelerator comprising: e) one or more liquid carriers; f) water; and g) one or more paste forming agents. The one part adhesive composition may be used alone where ambient temperature and humidities afford reasonably rapid cure rates. The cure accelerator may be used when temperatures and/or humidities are sufficiently low such that the cure rate of the adhesive alone is not acceptable for a particular use.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A composition comprising:
I) a one part curable composition comprising
a) one or more isocyanate functional components;
b) one or more catalysts for the reaction of isocyanate groups with active hydrogen containing groups;
c) one or more fillers which comprise a high surface area carbon black having an Iodine adsorption number of about 100 g/kg or greater wherein high surface area is determined by the ASTM D1510 method;
d) one or more fillers having basic character; end

II) a cure accelerator comprising
e) one or more liquid carriers;
f) water; and
g) one or more paste forming agents comprising a material that is capable of reversibly binding water with consistency and no separation.

2. A composition according to claim 1 wherein one or more isocyanate functional components comprise one or more isocyanate functional prepolymers.

3. A composition according to claim 1 wherein the paste forming agent comprises one or more materials that form a homogeneous paste with water and the liquid carrier.

4. A composition according to claim 1 wherein the liquid carrier is glycol ether or a polyether polyol.

5. A composition according to claim 1 wherein the equivalent ratio of hydroxyl groups contained in the cure accelerator to isocyanate groups in the one part curable composition is from about 0.7:1 to 1.3:1.

6. A composition according to claim 1 wherein the one or more fillers having basic character exhibit a pH of 9.0 or greater when dissolved or dispersed in deionized water.

7. A composition according to claim 1 wherein the volumetric ratio of the one part curable composition to cure accelerator is 100:1 to 25:1.

8. A composition according to claim 1 wherein the one or more fillers having basic character comprise one cr more of talc or calcium carbonate.

9. A composition according to claim 1 wherein the paste forming agent is one or more clays.

10. The composition according to claim 1 wherein the one part curable composition and the cure accelerator each have a viscosity at 25° C. such that the ratio of the viscosity of the one part curable composition to the cure accelerator is from about 0.1 to 10.0.

11. A method comprising:
i) contacting the one part curable composition and the cure accelerator according to claim 1 together;
ii) contacting the contacted composition of i) with a first substrate;
iii) contacting the first substrate with a second substrate with the contacted composition of i) disposed between the two substrates; and,
iv) allowing the composition of i) to cure and bond the two substrates together.

12. A method according to claim 11 herein the tic components are mixed before contacting with the first substrate.

13. A method according to claim 11 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.

14. A method according to claim 11 wherein the second substrate is plastic or metal which may be coated.

15. A method comprising:
i) contacting the one part curable composition according to claim 1 and the cure accelerator wherein the one part curable composition and the cure accelerator each have a viscosity at 25° C. such that the ratio of the viscosity of the one part curable composition to the cure accelerator is from about 0.1 to 10.0 and the volumetric ratio of the one part curable composition and the cure accelerator is about 25:1 to greater;
ii) contacting the mixture with a first substrate; and
iii) contacting the first substrate with a second substrate so that the mixed components are disposed therebetween on at least a portion of each of the substrates.
