Abstract
Described herein is a process for preparing a polyurethane-type fiber composite material, said process including (a) di- and/or polyisocyanates, (b) compounds having isocyanate-reactive hydrogen atoms, (c) compounds including at least one carbon-carbon double bond, (d) optionally a catalyst to hasten a urethane reaction, (e) optionally a free-radical initiator, and (f) optionally further auxiliary and added-substance materials, being mixed into a reaction mixture—with concomitant wetting of a fiber material—and cured. Also described herein is a polyurethane-type fiber composite material obtainable by a process described herein and also to a method of using the polyurethane-type fiber composite material as a structural component part.

A process for preparing a polyurethane material, said process consisting of forming a reaction mixture consisting of:
- a) di- and/or polyisocyanates,
- b) compounds having isocyanate-reactive hydrogen atoms,
- c) compounds comprising at least one terminal carbon-carbon double bond,
- d) optionally a catalyst to hasten a urethane reaction,
- e) optionally a free-radical initiator, and
- f) optionally further auxiliary and added-substance materials,
- curing the reaction mixture to obtain the polyurethane material, and
- optionally free-radical polymerizing the compounds (c) comprising at least one terminal carbon-carbon double bond,
- wherein:
- the compounds (b) having isocyanate-reactive hydrogen atoms contain on average not less than 1.5 isocyanate-reactive hydrogen groups per molecule,
- a double bond density of the compounds (c) is not less than 21% and the compounds (c) have no isocyanate-reactive groups, wherein the double bond density is calculated by dividing a molecular mass of the at least one terminal carbon-carbon double bond (as determined by a molecular formula —CH═CH2) by a total molecular mass of the compounds (c),
- a double bond functionality of the compounds (c) is greater than 1, and
- an equivalence ratio between isocyanate groups of the di- and/or polyisocyanates (a) and the isocyanate-reactive hydrogen atoms of the compounds (b) is in the range from 0.8 to 2.
