Claims
- 1. The process for preparing a polyurethane comprising copolymerizing a mixture of poly(arylene ether-amide), produced by the reaction of a bicyclic amide acetal and a polyphenolic compound, and a polyisocyanate.
- 2. The process of claim 1 wherein the bicyclic amide acetal is one having the formula ##STR3## wherein R and R' independently represent hydrogen, an alkyl or an alkyl ether group having from 1 to 20 carbon atoms, an aryl or aryl ether group having from 6 to 12 carbon atoms, an alkaryl or an alkaryl ether group having from 7 to 20 carbon atoms.
- 3. The process of claim 2 wherein the polyphenolic compound is selected from the group consisting of Bisphenol-A, Bisphenol-F, resorcinol, 2,2'-biphenol, 4,4-biphenol, dihydroxynaphthalene, phenol/formaldehyde resins, tetrachloro Bisphenol-A and 4,4'-sulfonyl diphenol.
- 4. The process of claim 2 wherein the mixture contains a ratio of about one mole of bicyclic amide acetal per aromatic hydroxyl group present in the polyphenolic compound.
- 5. The process of claim 4 wherein the bicyclic amide acetal is one in which R is a methyl group and R' is hydrogen.
- 6. The process of claim 5 wherein the polyphenolic compound is Bisphenol-A.
- 7. The process of claim 5 wherein the polyphenolic compound is resorcinol.
- 8. The process of claim 5 wherein the polyphenolic compound is a phenol-formaldehyde resin.
- 9. The process of claim 6 wherein the polyisocyanate is methylene bis(phenyl isocyanate).
- 10. The process of claim 7 wherein the polyisocyanate is methylene bis(phenyl isocyanate).
- 11. The process of claim 8 wherein the polyisocyanate is methylene bis(phenyl isocyanate).
