Azido-alkyne click and oxysilane hybrid compositions

Abstract

The present invention provides alternative polyurethane composition comprising the reaction product of an azidated polyol and a poly(alkynyl carbamate) prepolymer, wherein the poly(alkynyl carbamate) prepolymer comprises the reaction product of a polyisocyanate, an alkynol, and an oxysilane. The reaction of the polyol and the prepolymer may occur in the presence of a catalyst or at a temperature of from 20° C. to 120° C. The inventive oxysilane and azido-alkyne hybrid click formulations provide comparable performance, and in some cases better performance, to/than urethane and azido-alkyne control click formulations in terms of pencil hardness, MEK double rubs, and glass transition temperature. The inventive alternative polyurethane compositions may be used to provide coatings, adhesives, sealants, films, elastomers, castings, and composites.
