REACTIONS WITH Poly bd TYPICAL VISCOSITY PROPERTIES OF Poly bd SAFETY HANDLING AND STORAGE SUPPLEMENTAL Poly bd INTRODUCTION. Poly bd Resins are low molecular weight, Hydroxyl Terminated homopolymers of . butadiene. Poly bd Resins are characterized by low volatiles content, low glass transition temperatures, excellent hydrophobicity and a high level of reactive functionality. The facile reaction of Poly bd Resins with curing agents such as di- and polyisocyanates provides an economical route to the preparation of general-purpose polyurethane elastomers. The unique structure of the Poly bd Resins provides properties which surpass typical polyether and polyester polyol based urethane systems, as well as conventional, general-purpose rubbers.

2 All grades of Poly bd Resins contain unsatur- ated double bonds that can be cured or crosslinked, and several grades of Poly bd resin contain epoxide functionality. Some of the outstanding performance characteristics Poly bd Resins provide to products include: Adhesion to a variety of substrates Hydrolytic stability Aqueous resistance to acids and bases Low temperature flexibility Low moisture permeability Low embedment stress Thermal cycling stability Electrical insulation properties High elongation with good elastic recovery. Poly bd Resins are used in various applications including coatings, construction products, waterproof membranes, electronic and automotive. The Poly bd Resins are used in castable elastomers, caulks, sealants, membranes, foams, adhesives, coatings, propel- lent binders, potting and encapsulation compounds as well as other rubber fabricated materials. Poly bd Resins comply with title 21 (Food and Drugs) of the Code of Federal Regulations, paragraph , Resinous and Polymeric Coatings.
