Isocyante terminated urethane prepolymers were synthesized by the reaction of 4,4`-dimethyl phenyldiisocyanate(MDI) and ester type polyols such as ethylene glycol/butanediol adipate(EBA), neopentylglycol/butanediol adipate(NBA) and hexanediol adipate (HA). All of the NCO-terminated urethane prepolymers are solid at room temperature, but they become mobile enough to be disposed onto a substrate upon heating about 80℃. Subsequently, they are solidified and cured through the reaction with moisture. Tensile behavior of the urethane hotmelt exhibits characteristic features depending on the type of polyol. The adhesive strength determined by single lap shear joint is higher in order of HA, NBA and EBA based urethane hotmelt., which can be correlated with the magnitude of breaking energy of the cured films. The failure mode are cohesive for all cases and the adhesive strength increases as the test is performed faster. This indicates that the strength of the adhesive joint is primarily dependent upon the bulk properties of the adhesives.
