45. The amine product of the reaction between an isocyanate and water is expected to act as a cocatalyst; therefore, similar log-log plotting for the isocyanate fails to give straight lines, and the rate law is considered first order in [N3300A] based on Scheme 2.
46. -1.5 (ref 15) taken as approximately equal to that of polyurethanes) would predict high solubility of polyureas; however, the highly cross-linked 3D structure of N3300A-derived polyurea seems to promote early phase separation.
