Abstract
Method of bonding a polyurethane surface to a polyvinyl chloride or other polymer substrate containing surface moisture, particularly useful for making chip cards. A resin comprising a polyol and a diisocyanate is placed on the substrate, followed by pressing, in the presence of a tertiary amine catalyst able simultaneously to catalyze the reaction of the polyol with the diisocyanate to form a polyurethane network and the reaction of the surface moisture with the diisocyanate to convert water molecules into polyurea.
