Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of polyurethane glove technology, and more particularly to a polyester polyol, a polyurethane resin, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology
[0002] The automotive repair industry involves a complex working environment, requiring frequent contact with oily media such as engine oil, lubricating oil, coolant, and fuel. Furthermore, the operation requires frequent gripping of metal parts, placing extremely high demands on the anti-slip, wear-resistant, oil-resistant, and breathable properties of protective gloves.
[0003] Currently available automotive repair gloves suffer from the following main problems: 1. Poor anti-slip properties, especially on oily metal surfaces, which can easily cause slippage when gripping tools or parts, posing a safety hazard. 2. Poor breathability, leading to sweaty, damp hands and a strong odor after prolonged wear. To improve the anti-slip properties of automotive repair gloves in oily environments, some manufacturers use adhesive dots (such as acrylic beads) or surface embossing. However, the adhesion between the adhesive layer and the glove substrate is weak, and it easily peels off after prolonged use. Furthermore, the adhesive area completely loses breathability, resulting in poor overall glove comfort. While embossing can improve dry-state anti-slip properties to some extent, its effectiveness drops drastically in oily environments when the pattern is filled with an oil film.
[0004] Polyurethane gloves have become an important branch of the protective glove industry due to their excellent abrasion resistance, good elasticity, and certain breathability. However, research on polyurethane gloves specifically designed for the automotive repair industry is still relatively limited, mainly focusing on waterproof and breathable properties (such as CN120645359A), hydrolysis resistance (such as CN121699379A), toughness, abrasion resistance, and environmental friendliness (such as CN121471468A). There is insufficient attention paid to the anti-slip performance of automotive repair gloves, and it is difficult to achieve a good balance between anti-slip properties, oil resistance, and breathability.
[0005] Therefore, how to develop a polyurethane glove that requires no further processing and has the advantages of being non-slip, breathable, and wear-resistant has become an urgent problem to be solved. Summary of the Invention
[0006] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this invention provides a polyester polyol, a polyurethane resin, a preparation method thereof, and its application. By designing a formulation for the polyester polyol and polyurethane resin, polyurethane gloves made from these materials possess the advantages of being non-slip, breathable, and wear-resistant, overcoming the shortcomings of traditional products that struggle to achieve a balance of performance.
[0007] To achieve this objective, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: In a first aspect, the present invention provides a polyester polyol, wherein the raw materials for preparing the polyester polyol include, by mass percentage, 20-30% m-aminobenzoic acid, 30-40% adipic acid, 1-4% o-methylhydroquinone and 31-41% 1,4-cyclohexanediol.
[0008] Among them, 20-30% can be, for example, 20%, 22%, 24%, 25%, 26%, 28%, or 30%; 30-40% can be, for example, 30%, 32%, 34%, 36%, 38%, 39%, or 40%; 1-4% can be, for example, 1%, 1.5%, 2%, 2.5%, 3%, 3.5%, or 4%; 31-41% can be, for example, 31%, 32%, 34%, 35%, 36%, 38%, 40%, or 41%.
[0009] This invention provides a novel method for preparing polyester polyols. By using m-aminobenzoic acid, adipic acid, o-methylhydroquinone, and 1,4-cyclohexanediol as raw materials, a rigid benzene ring, amide group, and cyclohexyl group are simultaneously introduced into the molecular structure of the polyester polyol, laying the foundation for the excellent properties of the subsequently prepared polyurethane resin. Specifically, m-aminobenzoic acid provides both amide groups and a meta-rigid benzene ring. The rigid benzene ring improves the compactness of the molecular chain, constructing a tightly cross-linked network that effectively blocks oil penetration and inhibits resin swelling, providing structural support for the wear resistance of the polyurethane resin. The meta-structure causes a certain degree of "knotting" or "bending" of the molecular chain. This imperfect linear structure guides the formation of microphase separation in the polyurethane, improving air permeability. The amide group strengthens intermolecular hydrogen bonding and cohesive strength, while simultaneously forming stable anti-slip resistance at the oil interface, directly imparting the polyurethane resin with... The excellent anti-slip properties of the resin prevent slippage due to contact with oil during use, and together they construct a polyester polyol basic framework with an ideal microstructure: moderate rigidity (ensuring that the breathable channels do not collapse), moderate polarity (ensuring anti-slip under oil), and the ability to spontaneously form nanoscale soft and hard segment partitions; 1,4-cyclohexanediol provides a cyclohexane structure, giving the soft segments of the polyurethane resin moderate rigidity and promoting the formation of a good microphase separation structure in the system. This microphase separation structure can form tiny breathable channels while ensuring the mechanical properties of the resin, so that the prepared polyurethane resin also has breathable properties.
[0010] Preferably, the molar ratio of hydroxyl to carboxyl groups in the raw materials for preparing the polyester polyol is (1.15-1.22):1, for example, it can be 1.15:1, 1.16:1, 1.17:1, 1.18:1, 1.19:1, 1.2:1, 1.21:1 or 1.22:1, etc.
[0011] Preferably, the weight-average molecular weight of the polyester polyol is 3600-4400 g / mol, for example, it can be 3600 g / mol, 3800 g / mol, 4000 g / mol, 4200 g / mol or 4400 g / mol.
[0012] The weight-average molecular weight is calculated based on the acid value and hydroxyl value of the obtained polyester polyol.
[0013] Preferably, the hydroxyl value of the polyester polyol is 25-27 mgKOH / g, for example, it can be 25 mgKOH / g, 25.5 mgKOH / g, 26 mgKOH / g, 26.5 mgKOH / g or 27 mgKOH / g, etc.
[0014] The hydroxyl value was obtained by titration according to the HG / T 2709-2022 standard.
[0015] This invention limits the amount of each raw material used in the preparation of polyester polyol, so that the molar ratio of hydroxyl to carboxyl groups in the raw materials is (1.15-1.22):1, to ensure that the final product is hydroxyl-terminated, and controls the molecular weight of polyester polyol between 3600-4400 g / mol, so that the polyurethane resin subsequently prepared can form ideal microphase separation in this system, while taking into account both air permeability and strength.

[0020] Preferably, antioxidant A includes phosphate ester antioxidants.
[0021] Preferably, the catalyst comprises any one or a combination of at least two of tetrabutyl titanate, tetraisopropyl titanate, stannous octoate, or dibutyltin dilaurate.
[0022] In a second aspect, the present invention provides a method for preparing a polyester polyol as described in the first aspect, the method comprising the following steps: The polyester polyol is obtained by mixing amino-substituted m-aminobenzoic acid, adipic acid, o-methylhydroquinone and 1,4-cyclohexanediol, followed by polycondensation and esterification reactions.

[0025] Preferably, the polycondensation reaction is carried out in an inert gas atmosphere.
[0026] Preferably, the inert gas includes nitrogen.
[0027] Preferably, the flow rate of the inert gas is 0.3-0.6 L / min, for example, it can be 0.3 L / min, 0.4 L / min, 0.5 L / min or 0.6 L / min, etc.
[0028] Preferably, the temperature of the esterification reaction is 220-230°C, for example, 220°C, 222°C, 225°C, 228°C or 230°C.
[0029] Preferably, the esterification reaction comprises first reacting at 220-230°C (e.g., 220°C, 222°C, 225°C, 228°C, or 230°C, etc.) for 2-4 hours (e.g., 2 hours, 2.5 hours, 3 hours, 3.5 hours, or 4 hours, etc.), then reacting at 220-230°C (e.g., 220°C, 222°C, 225°C, 228°C, or 230°C, etc.), under vacuum conditions and in the presence of an optional catalyst, until the acid value of the reaction system is <0.5 mgKOH / g (e.g., 0.1 mgKOH / g, 0.2 mgKOH / g, 0.3 mgKOH / g, or 0.4 mgKOH / g, etc.) and the hydroxyl value is 25-27 mgKOH / g (e.g., 25 mgKOH / g, 25.5 mgKOH / g, 26 mgKOH / g, 26.5 mgKOH / g, or 27 mgKOH / g, etc.). The polyester polyol was obtained by (mgKOH / g, etc.).
[0030] Preferably, the vacuum degree of the vacuum condition is -0.01 to -0.1 MPa, for example, it can be -0.01 MPa, -0.02 MPa, -0.04 MPa, -0.05 MPa, -0.06 MPa, -0.08 MPa or -0.1 MPa, etc.
[0031] Thirdly, the present invention provides a polyurethane resin, wherein the raw materials for preparing the polyurethane resin include, by mass percentage, 9-18% polyester polyol as described in the first aspect, 0.5-8% 3-hydroxy-2,2-dimethylpropionic acid (3-hydroxy-2,2-dimethylpropyl) ester, 5-15% isocyanate, 0.5-4% chain extender, and 60-80% solvent A.
[0032] Among them, 9-18% can be, for example, 9%, 10%, 12%, 14%, 15%, 16%, or 18%; 0.5-8% can be, for example, 0.5%, 1%, 2%, 3%, 4%, 5%, 6%, 7%, or 8%; 5-15% can be, for example, 5%, 6%, 8%, 10%, 12%, 14%, or 15%; 0.5-4% can be, for example, 0.5%, 1%, 1.5%, 2%, 2.5%, 3%, 3.5%, or 4%; 60-80% can be, for example, 60%, 65%, 70%, 75%, or 80%.
[0033] This invention utilizes a polyester polyol containing rigid benzene rings, amide groups, and cyclohexane structures to copolymerize with 3-hydroxy-2,2-dimethylpropionic acid (HPN) to prepare polyurethane resin. The synergistic effect of the two types of polyols can effectively control the ratio and compatibility of the soft and hard segments in the polyurethane system, balancing the rigidity and flexibility of the resin. At the same time, relying on the rigid benzene rings, amide groups, and cyclohexane structures in the polyester polyol and the structural specificity of 3-hydroxy-2,2-dimethylpropionic acid (HPN), the microphase separation effect of the system is optimized. As a result, the prepared polyurethane product has excellent wear resistance, anti-slip properties, and breathability, making it suitable for the complex working conditions in the automotive repair field.
[0034] This invention utilizes 3-hydroxy-2,2-dimethylpropionic acid (3-hydroxy-2,2-dimethylpropyl) ester, which possesses a branched structure (two neopentyl units) and ester bonds. This branched structure effectively breaks down the aggregation tendency of hard segments, preventing them from agglomerating into large, disordered hard regions, thereby ensuring uniform and fine hard segment micro-region sizes. This plays a crucial role in precisely controlling the compatibility and microphase separation scale. Furthermore, in polyurethane synthesis, the hard segments (4,4-diphenylmethane diisocyanate containing benzene rings) and soft segments (the polyester polyol provided in the first aspect) have significant polarity differences, easily leading to macroscopic phase separation and poor material performance. 3-hydroxy-2,2-dimethylpropionic acid (3-hydroxy-2,2-dimethylpropyl) ester is compatible with both hard and soft segments at one end, acting like "tiny rivets" to anchor the hard and soft segments together, forming a nanoscale, uniform microphase separation. This nanoscale separation ensures both physical cross-linking points (strength, anti-slip properties) and creates continuous nanopores (breathability).
[0035] Preferably, the isocyanate comprises 4,4-diphenylmethane diisocyanate.
[0036] Preferably, the chain extender comprises ethylene glycol and / or 1,4-butanediol.
[0037] Preferably, solvent A comprises N,N-dimethylformamide.
[0038] Preferably, based on the mass percentage of the raw materials for preparing the polyurethane resin being 100%, the raw materials for preparing the polyurethane resin further include any one or a combination of at least two of the following: antioxidant B 0.001-0.03%, phosphoric acid 0.001-0.01%, chain terminator 0.01-0.05%, or anti-tackifying agent 0.01-0.05%.
[0039] Among them, 0.001-0.03% can be, for example, 0.001%, 0.005%, 0.01%, 0.015%, 0.02%, 0.025%, or 0.03%, etc.; 0.001-0.01% can be, for example, 0.001%, 0.002%, 0.004%, 0.005%, 0.006%, 0.008%, or 0.01%, etc.; 0.01-0.05% can be, for example, 0.01%, 0.015%, 0.02%, 0.025%, 0.03%, 0.035%, 0.04%, 0.045%, or 0.05%, etc.
[0040] Preferably, antioxidant B includes phosphate ester antioxidants.
[0041] Preferably, the chain terminator comprises methanol.
[0042] Preferably, the anti-tack and anti-blocking agent includes malic acid.
[0043] Fourthly, the present invention provides a method for preparing a polyurethane resin as described in the third aspect, the method comprising the following steps: (1) The polyester polyol as described in the first aspect, 3-hydroxy-2,2-dimethylpropionic acid (3-hydroxy-2,2-dimethylpropyl) ester, optional antioxidant B, optional phosphoric acid, a portion of isocyanate and a portion of solvent A are mixed and reacted. (2) Add a portion of solvent A, chain extender and another portion of isocyanate to the reaction system obtained in step (1) and carry out the reaction; (3) Add the remaining solvent A to the reaction system obtained in step (2), and then add an optional chain terminator and an optional anti-tack agent to obtain the polyurethane resin.
[0044] The polyurethane resin preparation method provided by this invention employs a two-step polymerization process. First, polyester polyol, 3-hydroxy-2,2-dimethylpropionic acid (3-hydroxy-2,2-dimethylpropyl) ester, and a portion of isocyanate undergo a short-term prepolymerization reaction (R value during prepolymerization is 0.5-0.9) to prepare a polyurethane prepolymer. Then, another portion of isocyanate and a chain extender are added to undergo a chain extension reaction. By precisely controlling the ratio of hard and soft segments, microphase separation is achieved: the hard segment microregions act as physical crosslinking points, imparting strength and wear resistance; the continuous soft segment microregions form nanoscale free volume channels, allowing water vapor molecules to pass through while blocking water droplets, achieving waterproof and breathable properties. This avoids the polyurethane prepolymer having an excessively high molecular weight, which would lead to uneven mixing of hard and soft segments in the final polyurethane resin, excessively large and disordered distribution of hard segment microregions, thus affecting microphase separation.
[0045] Preferably, the portion of solvent A in step (1) accounts for 20-40% of the total mass of solvent A, for example, it can be 20%, 25%, 30%, 35% or 40%, etc.
[0046] Preferably, the reaction temperature in step (1) is 70-80℃, for example, it can be 70℃, 72℃, 74℃, 75℃, 76℃, 78℃ or 80℃, and the reaction time is 1-2 h, for example, it can be 1 h, 1.2 h, 1.5 h, 1.6 h, 1.8 h or 2 h.
[0047] Preferably, the R value of the reaction in step (1) is 0.5-0.9, for example, it can be 0.5, 0.6, 0.7, 0.8, or 0.9.
[0048] The amount of isocyanate used in step (1) of this invention is adjusted by controlling the R value of the reaction based on the different weight-average molecular weights of the polyester polyols used.
[0049] Preferably, the portion of solvent A in step (2) accounts for 10-20% of the total mass of solvent A, for example, it can be 10%, 12%, 14%, 15%, 16%, 18% or 20%, etc.
[0050] Preferably, the reaction temperature in step (2) is 70-80℃, for example, it can be 70℃, 72℃, 74℃, 75℃, 76℃, 78℃ or 80℃, etc.
[0051] Preferably, the viscosity of the system after adding the remaining solvent A in step (3) at 25°C is 250,000-300,000 cps, for example, it can be 250,000 cps, 260,000 cps, 270,000 cps, 280,000 cps, 290,000 cps or 300,000 cps.
[0052] The viscosity (at 25°C) was measured using a rotational viscometer.
[0053] Fifthly, the present invention provides a polyurethane glove, the polyurethane glove comprising a core and a polyurethane outer layer; The polyurethane outer layer is prepared from a slurry containing the polyurethane resin described in the third aspect.
[0054] Preferably, the slurry comprises, by weight, 200 parts of polyurethane resin as described in the third aspect, 0.1-2 parts of black paste, 0.1-2 parts of defoamer, and 200-400 parts of solvent B.
[0055] Among them, 0.1-2 portions can be, for example, 0.1 portions, 0.5 portions, 1 portion, 1.5 portions, or 2 portions; 200-400 portions can be, for example, 200 portions, 250 portions, 300 portions, 350 portions, or 400 portions.
[0056] Preferably, solvent B comprises N,N-dimethylformamide.
[0057] Preferably, the polyurethane gloves are prepared by the following method: The components of the slurry are mixed, the glove core is placed on a palm-shaped hand mold and immersed in the slurry, and then immersed in a coagulation tank for coagulation to obtain the polyurethane glove.
[0058] Preferably, the immersion time is 10-20 s, for example, it can be 10 s, 12 s, 14 s, 15 s, 16 s, 18 s or 20 s, etc.
[0059] Preferably, the temperature of the hand mold is 40-50℃, for example, it can be 40℃, 42℃, 44℃, 45℃, 46℃, 48℃ or 50℃, etc.
[0060] Preferably, the immersion process further includes a homogenization step.
[0061] Preferably, the homogenization time is 1-5 min, for example, it can be 1 min, 2 min, 3 min, 4 min or 5 min, etc.
[0062] Preferably, the coagulation tank contains an aqueous solution of N,N-dimethylformamide with a mass concentration of 7-12% (e.g., 7%, 8%, 9%, 10%, 11%, or 12%).
[0063] This invention employs a "palm-immersion coagulation process" and limits the coagulation tank to contain an N,N-dimethylformamide-water solution with a mass concentration of 7-12%. If the N,N-dimethylformamide-water solution concentration is too high, the polyurethane coagulation speed will be too fast, forming an extremely dense surface layer with almost no pores, resulting in a decrease in moisture permeability. If the concentration is too low, the polyurethane resin cannot be effectively coagulated, thus affecting its overall performance.
[0064] Preferably, the solidification time is 15-25 min, for example, it can be 15 min, 20 min or 25 min.
[0065] Preferably, the solidification process further includes steps of soaking in water for washing and drying.
[0066] Preferably, the soaking and washing temperature is 60-70℃, for example, 60℃, 62℃, 64℃, 65℃, 66℃, 68℃ or 70℃, and the time is 1-3 hours, for example, 1 hour, 1.5 hours, 2 hours, 2.5 hours or 3 hours.
[0067] Preferably, the drying temperature is 100-130℃, for example, 100℃, 105℃, 120℃, 125℃ or 130℃, and the drying time is 30-60 min, for example, 30 min, 40 min, 50 min or 60 min.
[0068] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has at least the following beneficial effects: (1) This invention designs a polyester polyol containing a rigid benzene ring, amide group and cyclohexane structure, and then combines it with 3-hydroxy-2,2-dimethylpropionic acid (3-hydroxy-2,2-dimethylpropyl) ester. The polyurethane resin is synthesized by a "two-step polymerization process" and combined with a "palm immersion coagulation process", so that the polyurethane gloves have excellent anti-slip properties, breathability and wear resistance.
[0069] (2) The polyester polyol, polyurethane resin and polyurethane gloves provided by the present invention have mild overall process conditions and simple operation, which are suitable for industrial production. The polyurethane gloves made are suitable for fields with high requirements for anti-slip and breathability, such as automobile repair, machining and construction sites, and are especially suitable for the automobile repair industry that needs to be frequently exposed to oily environments.

The temperature of the mixture was raised to 145°C for melt polycondensation reaction for 5 h, during which water generated as a byproduct was continuously removed. The temperature was then raised to 225°C for esterification reaction for 3 h. A stepwise vacuum method was used, first maintaining the vacuum at -0.04 MPa for 4 h, then increasing the vacuum to -0.09 MPa and maintaining it for 6 h to remove water and small molecule alcohols from the reaction system. The acid value of the reaction system was checked every 30 minutes. After the acid value dropped below 28 mgKOH / g, tetrabutyl titanate was added, and the reaction continued under vacuum of -0.09 MPa and 225℃. The acid value and hydroxyl value of the reaction system were checked every 1 hour until the acid value was 0.45 mgKOH / g and the hydroxyl value was 26.2 mgKOH / g. The temperature was then lowered to 75℃, filtered, and packaged to obtain the polyester polyol (weight average molecular weight of 4210 g / mol).

[0114] Test methods The following performance tests were performed on the polyurethane gloves provided in corresponding use cases 1-8 and comparative application examples 1-6: (1) Anti-slip evaluation: 5W-30 machine oil was applied to the stainless steel rod, and 8 testers were asked to wear gloves and hold the steel rod. The feeling was divided into the following 3 levels: A: easy to grip, not slippery; B: requires some force to grip, not easy to slip; C: easy to slip, can not grip. (2) Water permeability (g / (m) 2 •24h): According to JIS-L-1099 A standard, the moisture permeability of the gloves is measured. The higher the moisture permeability, the less likely water vapor will accumulate when wearing gloves. (3) Abrasion resistance: The abrasion resistance of the gloves of the present invention was tested in accordance with GB 24541-2009 standard. The polyurethane gloves were cut into circles with a diameter of 38 mm. The abrasion resistance of Martindale was tested. The total mass of the loading block and the sample clamp assembly was 600 g. The sample was checked for wear every 500 revolutions. The test was stopped when the sample was worn.
[0115] The test results are shown in Table 1 below: Table 1 The test results show that: (1) As can be seen from Application Examples 1 to 8, the present invention, through formulation design of polyester polyol and polyurethane resin, produces polyurethane gloves that combine the advantages of anti-slip, breathability and wear resistance, overcoming the shortcomings of traditional products in achieving a balance of performance. The anti-slip performance can reach grade B or A, and the moisture permeability can reach 450-1850 g / (m²). 2 • 24h), wear resistance can reach 5300-8200 times.
[0116] (2) As can be seen from Application Examples 1, 7 and Comparative Application Example 3, in the preparation of polyurethane resin, the addition of too much isocyanate in step (2) results in a large R value in the system and an excessively high molecular weight of the prepolymer. This leads to uneven mixing of the soft and hard segments of the final polymer, excessively large and disordered distribution of the hard segment micro-regions, reduced grip uniformity, and blockage of the air pores by large-sized hard segments, resulting in reduced moisture permeability and decreased abrasion resistance due to stress concentration. Comparative Application Example 3 uses a one-step process to prepare polyurethane resin, resulting in almost no microphase separation between the soft and hard segments of the polyurethane resin, leading to low moisture permeability, disordered distribution of polar groups, severely deteriorated anti-slip properties, lack of physical cross-linking points, and poor abrasion resistance. This further demonstrates that the "two-step polymerization" and "under-prepolymerization" of this invention can effectively improve the anti-slip, breathable and abrasion-resistant properties of polyurethane gloves by adjusting the microstructure of the polyurethane resin.
[0117] (3) As can be seen from Application Examples 1 and 8, when the concentration of N,N-dimethylformamide in the "palm-immersion coagulation process" is too high (20%), the polyurethane resin coagulates too quickly, forming an extremely dense surface layer with almost no pores and reduced moisture permeability. However, the anti-slip performance is still Grade A, and the slight decrease in wear resistance is due to the increased brittleness of the formed dense layer.
[0118] (4) As can be seen from Application Example 1 and Comparative Application Examples 1-2, in Comparative Application Example 1, due to the lack of amide groups and benzene rings provided by m-aminobenzoic acid, the polarity of the polyurethane resin is greatly reduced, resulting in poor anti-slip and wear resistance. Moreover, the soft segments are too flexible, and although the air permeability is slightly improved, it is still constrained by the random structure, and the actual air permeability is lower than that of Application Example 1. In Comparative Application Example 2, the lack of 1,4-cyclohexane structure gives the polyurethane resin soft segments moderate rigidity. However, after using linear hexanediol, the soft segments are too flexible, the hard segments are difficult to effectively aggregate, the degree of microphase separation is reduced, resulting in decreased air permeability. At the same time, the regularity of the molecular chain is worse, and the wear resistance is low.
[0119] (5) As can be seen from Application Example 1 and Comparative Application Examples 4-6, PEBA-4000 in Comparative Application Example 4 does not contain rigid benzene rings and amide groups, and its anti-slip performance is only Grade B. Its wear resistance is lower than that of Application Example 1. However, since the soft segment of the polyurethane resin provided in Comparative Example 4 is more flexible, but the pores are uneven, the moisture permeability is improved compared to Comparative Application Example 1, but it is still lower than that of Application Example 1. In Comparative Application Example 5, HPN is used as a small molecule diol to adjust the compatibility of soft and hard segments. When it is completely replaced by the polyester polyol provided in Example 1, the polyurethane resin becomes too rigid, the proportion of hard segments is too high, the microphase separation becomes worse, the moisture permeability decreases, and the internal stress increases, resulting in poor wear resistance. In Comparative Application Example 6, PEBA-1000 is a linear polyester diol. Its linear structure induces the hard segment molecules to arrange in a regular manner, forming large hard segment microregions. These large microregions physically block the water vapor channels, leading to a sharp decrease in air permeability.
