  • Patent number: 7169841
    Abstract: A curable aqueous polyurethane dispersion substantially comprises a) at least one compound having two free isocyanate groups, at least one allophanate group and at least one C?C double bond capable of free radical polymerization, a carbonyl group or an oxygen atom in the form of an ether function being bonded directly to the double bond, b) at least one compound having at least one group reactive toward isocyanate groups and having a C?C double bond capable of free-radical polymerization, c) if required, at least one compound having at least two groups reactive towards isocyanate groups and selected from hydroxyl, mercapto, primary and/or secondary amino groups, d) at least one compound having at least one group reactive towards isocyanate groups and having at least one acid group, e) at least one basic compound for neutralizing or partially neutralizing the acid groups of the compounds d), and a thermal initiator and is used for coating substrates.

  • Patent number: 6747088
    Abstract: UV- and heat-curable aqueous polyurethane dispersions comprise compounds attached via polyisocyanates and containing UV-polymerizable C═C double bonds, aliphatic diols incorporated by way of isocyanates and having a molecular weight of less than 500 g/mol, compounds attached via isocyanates and containing carboxylic acid or sulfonic acid groups and/or salts thereof, free hydroxyl groups, and compounds containing blocked isocyanate groups. They are suitable for coating heat-stable substrates such as metal substrates and may be used with advantage for automotive clearcoats.
