Abstract

Abstract Disclosed are novel stable aqueous dispersions of ionic polyurethane-polyureas prepared from (A) aqueous dispersions of isocyanate. terminated ionic prepolymers and (B) hydrocarbon polyamine extenders. The essential feature of the present invention resides in employing a mixture of a diol and triol in the prepolymer forming step. Also disclosed are the films and coated substrates obtained through the use of said dispersions as coatings. The films are useful in the manufacture of waterproof clothing, tarpaulins, chip-resistant coatings in automative applications and the like.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 11
Claim 1
Independent Claim 88 words
A stable aqueous dispersion of an ionic polyurethane-polyurea prepared by the reaction of (A) an aqueous dispersion of an isocyanate terminated ionic prepolymer with (B) a hydrocarbon polyamine extender said prepolymer having been prepared from (i) an excess of an aliphatic or cycloaliphatic diisocyanate, (ii) an organic polyol, and (iii) a difunctional isocyanate-­reactive component containing an ionic group or potential ionic group, characterized in that said component (ii) comprises a mixture of an organic diol and an organic triol having a molecular weight of from 250 to 6,000.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 88 words
A stable aqueous dispersion of an ionic polyurethane-polyurea prepared by the reaction of (A) an aqueous dispersion of an isocyanate terminated ionic prepolymer with (B) a hydrocarbon polyamine extender said prepolymer having been prepared from (i) an excess of an aliphatic or cycloaliphatic diisocyanate, (ii) an organic polyol, and (iii) a difunctional isocyanate-­reactive component containing an ionic group or potential ionic group, characterized in that said component (ii) comprises a mixture of an organic diol and an organic triol having a molecular weight of from 250 to 6,000.
