Hybrid non-isocyanate polyurethane (HNIPU) binder system
Original: Isocyanate-based polyurethane binder system
Proposed offset: Hybrid non-isocyanate polyurethane (HNIPU) binder system
Use: Coating binder-and-cure systems suited to cyclic-carbonate / amine / epoxy chemistry
Claim to investigate: The documented HNIPU route removes isocyanate reactants from that binder-making and curing route.
Limits: This is a complete binder/cure redesign, not substitution of a finished resin for MDI, IPDI or another monomer. Epoxy/amine identity, cure kinetics, viscosity and coating performance need their own review; no universal safer claim follows.
