Abstract
The present disclosure is concerned with an improved method of reverse coating textile sheets with storage stable polyurethane top and adhesive coats which are formulated to have improved resistance to deformation under heat and pressure. At least one of the coats is formulated from a diisocyanate, a high molecular weight dihydroxy compound and a mixture of at least one low molecular weight diol with a low molecular weight monoalkanolamine. The coatings are applied in the usual reverse coating manner, i.e. the top coat is applied to a release substrate from solution; dried; the adhesive coat is applied from solution onto the dried top coat; and the textile substrate is laminated to the adhesive coat.
Claims11
In a method of coating textile sheets by the reversal process with polyurethanes which are stable in storage as solutions according to which the solution of a polyurethane which is substantially free from reactive end groups is applied as top coat to a separating substrate in a first stage of the process, the top coat is dried and in a second stage an adhesive coat solution is applied to the top coat and the textile sheet is laminated thereto, the solvent in the adhesive coat is evaporated off in a second drying operation and the coated textile is subsequently lifted from the separating substrate, the improvement comprising the use of a polyurethane in at least one of the top coat and adhesive coat which has been prepared by the reaction of
- (a) at least one dihydroxyl compound having a molecular weight of between about 500 and 5000,
- (b) at least one diisocyanate and
- (c) a mixture of about 95-35 mol% of at least one diol having a molecular weight of between about 62 and 450 and about 5-65 mol %
- of at least one monoalkanolamine having a molecular weight of about 61 to 200, the molar ratio of components (a) to (c) being between about 1:1 and 1:6 thereby giving a coating with improved pressure deformation resistance under heat.
