Thermally-reversible polymer compositions are obtained by reacting compounds with isocyanate and labile-hydrogen functionality. High-performance characteristics are incorporated into the polymer by using aromatic polycarbonate, aromatic polyester, polyarylsulfide, and polyarylimidazolidine oligomers. The compositions are useful as hot-melt adhesives, coatings and especially finish surface coatings on composite materials such as polypropylene and polyethylene terephthalate, moldings and in injection reaction molding applications and composite and laminate fabrication.

Disclosed is a method for preparing poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) polymers (PHEMA) by a precipitation/suspension polymerization technique wherein a reaction mixture comprising hydroxyethyl methacrylate monomer (HEMA), solvent, and a free-radical initiator is subjected to heating for a time adequate for said PHEMA to be formed. The improvement in process of the present invention comprises restricting said HEMA to contain less than about 0. 5 wt-% polyfunctional acrylate content, incorporating a suspending agent in said reaction mixture, agitating said reaction mixture during said heating, and restricting said solvent to one having a solubility parameter of between about 7. 5 and 9, to produce PHEMA polymer particles ranging in size from about 30 to 1,000 microns and having a molecular weight ranging from about 500,000 to 2,000,000.

Thermally-reversible polymer compositions are obtained by reacting compounds with isocyanate and labile-hydrogen functionality. High-performance characteristics are incorporated into the polymer by using polyimide, aromatic polycarbonate, aromatic polyester, polyphenylene sulfide, and poly(parabanic acid) oligomers. Low-temperature flexibility and toughness are imparted to the polymers by using prepolymers such as polycaprolactone diols, polytetramethylene ether glycols and polyaliphatic carbon diols. Ionic bonding and liquid-crystal functionality may also be incorporated into the compositions. The compositions are useful as hot-melt adhesives, coatings, and moldings and in injection reaction molding applications and composite and laminate fabrication.

Thermally-reversible polymer compositions are obtained by reacting compounds with isocyanate and labile-hydrogen functionality. Aromatic polyimide, aromatic polycarbonate, polyarylsulfide, aromatic polyester with liquid crystal property, and polyarylimidazolidine oligomers are incorporated into the isocyanate or labile hydrogen compounds to give high-performance characteristics. Such thermally-reversible isocyanate-based polymer compositions with high-performance characteristics are useful, among other things, as finish surface coatings on composite materials such as polypropylene and polyethylene terephthalate. Novel phenolic-hydroxyl terminated polyarylsulfide and polyarylimidazolidine oligomers and their preparation are also described.
