Degradation and stabilisation of diisocyanate cured polybutadiene
Hydroxyl terminated polybutadiene (HTPB) has been used as a rocket propellant binder which is required to be stored for at least twenty years. It is found that the excellent stress-strain characteristics of this propellant can be totally lost, during this long storage, due to the deterioration of …

Genetic Effect of MBL2 Polymorphisms in Patients with Diisocyanate-induced Occupational Asthma
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Diisocyanate (DI) is the most common cause of occupational asthma (OA) in Korea. Although various mechanisms were involved in the pathogenesis of DI-OA, oxidative stress has been suggested as a potential mechanism, which leads to the formation of a complement-activating …

Serum Specific IgG to Cytokeratin : A Useful Serologic Marker for Toluene Diisocyanate-Induced Asthma
… for the diagnosis of patients with toluene diisocyanate (TDI)-induced asthma. We evaluate the clinical significance of specific IgG to three major epithelial cytokeratins (CK)-CK8, CK18, and CK19-in 66 patients with TDI-induced asthma (group Ⅰ), compared with three control groups: 169 …

Structural Determination of Copolymers from the Cross-catalyzed Reactions of Phenol-formaldehyde and Polymeric Methylenediphenyl Diisocyanate
This work reports the elucidation of the structure of a copolymer generated by the cross- catalyzed reactions of PF and pMDI prepolymers. The electronic behavior of phenolic monomers as perturbed by alkali metal hydroxides in an aqueous environment was studied with 1H and 13C NMR. Changes in …

The Prevalence and Clinical Significance of Newly Sensitization to Inhalant Allergens in Toluene Diisocyanate-induced Asthmatic Patients
… It has been reported that half of toluene diisocyanate (TDI)-induced asthma patients had persistent asthmatic symptoms even after complete avoidance. We hypothesized that new sensitization to common inhalant allergens may contribute to persistent and aggravation of asthmatic symptoms. …

Synthesis and characterization of hyperbranched poly(urea-urethane)s
… available monomers which are 2,4-toluylene diisocyanate (TDI) as aromatic diisocyanate and isophorone diisocyanate (IPDI) and 2(3-isocyanatopropyl) cyclohexylisocyanate (IPCI) as aliphatic diisocyanates. Those proposed diisocyanates were reacted with diethanolamine (DEA) or …

Structure–Property Relationships Of: 1) Novel Polyurethane and Polyurea Segmented Copolymers and 2) The Influence of Selected Solution Casting Variables on the Solid State Structure of Synthetic Polypeptide Films Based on Glutamate Chemistry
… Polyurethanes in which a single asymmetric diisocyanate comprising the whole of the hard segment were found to display poor microphase separation. Conversely, polyurethanes in which a single symmetric diisocyanate composed the hard segment were found to display good microphase separation. …

Structural characterization of polyurethane foam and implications of aging
… decomposition of uretoneimine linkages in the diisocyanate starting material by monitoring the change in intensities of diisocyanate, carbodiimide, and uretoneimine bands in the IR spectra. Thermal analysis (DSC and TMA) were consistent with IR finding, where endothermic and exothermic events …

Capillary Zone Electrophoresis Analysis of Isocyanates in Spray-Painting Operations
Various diisocyanate monomers and polyisocyanate oligomers exist in spray painting formulations and are known to be harmful to workers who are exposed to a spray-painting environment. Several methods were used for the sampling and analysis of airborne 1,6- hexamethylene diisocyanate (HDI) monomer …

Physicomechanical Response of Ionic Polyurethanes on Endothelial Cells
… properties. PUs are designed with two different diisocyanates, hexamethylene diisocyanate (HDI), which has a linear structure and isophorone diisocyanate (IPDI), with a non-linear structure. By utilizing the inter-segmental interaction along with ionic interactions, the relaxation of PU chains …

New Sampling and Analysis Method for Isocyanates in Spray-Painting Operations
… paints is based on 1,6-hexamethylene diisocyanate (HDI) and contains the isocyanurate or the biuret of HDI. Exposure to isocyanate vapor and aerosol in spray paintings is known to cause a range of disorders in humans. The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) …

Structure-property relationships in polyurethanes from lignin
… solution casting from hydroxypropyl lignins and diisocyanates. Kraft and steam explosion lignin, hexamethylene diisocyanate (HDI) and tolylene diisocyanate (TDI), were used for the study. It was found necessary to use stoichiometric excess amounts of diisocyanates in the synthesis of the …

Biocompatible ultrathin coatings from isocyanate terminated star PEG prepolymers
… star polymers were treated with isophorone diisocyanate, acrylic acid chloride or divinyl sulfone respectively. Important therby was the surpression of the unwanted chain extension and colouring of the products. These polymers were then coated onto amine terminated surfaces. It turned out to …

Determining soft segment structure-property effects in the enhancement of segmented polyurethane performance
… domains that were connected by hexamethylene diisocyanate-butanediol (HDI-BDO) hard segments. Soft segment crystallinity studies revealed the need to optimize the extent of continuous soft domain ordering. Highly crystalline PEO soft segments, while they display good microphase segregation …
