Abstract
The addition of a small amount of an alkyl sulfoxide, e.g., DMSO, to an isocyanate capped prepolymer provides a storage stable prepolymer composition in which the prepolymer is also highly activated towards curing with certain blocked curing agents such as methylenedianiline metal salt coordination complexes. The prepolymer/alkyl sulfoxide compositions are cured by said blocked curing agents at lower temperatures and/or at an accelerated rate compared to similar compositions lacking the alkyl sulfoxide providing high performance polyurethane elastomers.
