Abstract
Transient species in the laser flash photolysis of solutions of methylene 4,4-diphenyldiisocyanate MDI based polyurethanes and small molecule models have been detected. One of the transient species, a substituted anilinyl radical, is not quenched by oxygen while a second transient is extinguished by the introduction of oxygen. Based on the spectral results, a plausible mechanism is offered for the primary photochemical reactions of MDI based polyurethanes.
