Abstract
The presently claimed invention relates to a process for preparing urea urethane polymer, liquid compositions comprising the urea urethane polymer and the use of the urea urethane polymer as a thickening and thixotropic agent for water based and solvent based paint and coating formulations, lacquer, varnish, paper coating, wood coating, adhesive, ink, cosmetic formulation, detergent formulation, textile and drilling muds plaster formulations, PVC plastisol and cement formulations.
Claims22
A process for preparing a urea urethane, the process comprising:
- i) introducing toluene diisocyanate into a reactor;
- ii) adding at least one monohydroxyl compound of formula (I)
- R—OH (I),
- wherein R is linear or branched alkyl comprising 4 to 22 carbon atoms, linear or branched alkenyl comprising 4 to 22 carbon atoms, cycloalkyl comprising 6 to 12 carbon atoms, aralkyl comprising 7 to 12 carbon atoms, a radical of formula CmH2m+1(O—CnH2n)x—, a radical of formula CmH2m+1[O—C(═O)—CvH2v]x—, or a radical of formula CmH2m+1(O—CnH2n)x−1[O—C(═O)—CvH2v]x—, wherein m is an integer from 1 to 22, n is an integer from 2 to 4, x is an integer from 1 to 15 and v is an integer from 4 to 6,
- to obtain at least one monoisocyanate adduct;
- whereby a molar ratio of the at least one monohydroxyl compound of formula (I) to the toluene diisocyanate is in a range of ≥1.05:1.0 to ≤1.2:1.0;
- iii) preparing a pre-mix by mixing at least one diamine, at least one polar aprotic solvent, and at least one lithium salt;
- and
- iv) feeding the pre-mix obtained in iii) into the reactor to react with the at least one monoisocyanate adduct obtained in ii), to obtain the urea urethane.
