Summary
Determination of critical stoichiometric ratio necessary for gelation in polyurethane systems composed of poly(oxypropylene)triol and diol, trimethylolpropane and 4,4′-diphenylmethane diisocyanate revealed the effects of a different functionality, reactivity of functional groups, tendency to cyclization and the course of the crosslinking process.
