Abstract
Abstract Aliphatic or cycloaliphatic polycarbonate-triols having a molecular weight of not more than 3,000, which contain hydrophobic segments and are liquid at room temperature are obtained by transesterifying an aryl carbonate with a primary aliphatic triol and a mixture of two diols, HOAOH and HOBOH, at least one of the radicals A or B being a hydrophobic radical, the proportion of the primary aliphatic triol is such that there is statistically one molecule of the said triol per polymer chain in the product, and the ratio of the diols being such that the polycarbonate-triol obtained is equivalent to a mixture of a% by weight of a polycarbonate derived from the triol and the diol HOAOH alone, and of b% by weight of a polycarbonate derived from the triol and the diol HOBOH alone, the percentages a and b corresponding to the following two conditions: 30%≦a%≦70% a%+b%=100%. Modified aminoplast resins can be obtained by reacting such polycarbonate-triols with etherified melamine-formaldehyde condensates.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim
169 words
A liquid aliphatic or cycloaliphatic polycarbonate-triol containing hydrophobic segments and having a molecular weight which is not more than 3,000, and which is obtained by a transesterification reaction between an aryl carbonate and a primary aliphatic triol and a mixture of two diols HOAOH and HOBOH, A and B being different, at least one of the radicals A and B being a hydrophobic radical, said diols being aliphatic or cycloaliphatic, said triol having a boiling point of at least 220° C., the proportion of said primary aliphatic triol used being such that there is statistically one molecule of the said triol per polymer chain the product, and the ratio of said diols being such that the polycarbonate-triol obtained is equivalent to a mixture of a% by weight of a polycarbonate derived from the triol and the diol HOAOH alone, and of b% by weight of a polycarbonate derived from the triol and the diol HOBOH alone, the percentages a and b corresponding to the following two conditions: 30%≦a%≦70% a%+b%=100%.
