Abstract

The present invention is directed to a process for the preparation of a stable, liquid adduct comprising reacting a mixture of 1,3-butane diol and neopentyl glycol with diphenylmethane diisocyanate at a temperature of from about 25.degree. C. to about 120.degree. C. in an amount such that said adduct has an isocyanate group content of from about 20 to about 30 percent by weight, and wherein the ratio of mole equivalents of 1,3-butane diol to mole equivalents of neopentyl glycol is from 0.05:0.95 to 0.95:0.05, with the further proviso that PA1 (i) if the 4,4'-isomer content of the diphenylmethane diisocyanate is equal to or greater than 98 percent by weight, then said ratio is from 0.30:0.70 to 0.65:0.35, PA1 (ii) if the 4,4'-isomer content of the diphenylmethane diisocyanate is less than 98 percent by weight but not less than 90 percent by weight, then said ratio is from 0.30:0.70 to 0.75:0.25, PA1 (iii) if the 4,4'-isomer content of the diphenylmethane diisocyanate is less than 90 percent by weight but not less than 80 percent by weight, then said ratio is from 0.30:0.70 to 0.85:0.15 and PA1 (iv) if the 4,4'-isomer content of the diphenylmethane diisocyanate is less than 80 percen…
