  • Publication number: 20200071512
    Abstract: A composition containing an aqueous polymer dispersion including water and at least one water-dispersible polymer and at least one silane-terminated polymer and to a method for protecting a substrate against stone-chipping and/or corrosion. Also relating to a method for sealing a joint between two substrates, to a method for coating a surface of substrate and to a method for adhesively bonding two substrates. Furthermore, the use of silane-terminated polymers in sealants, coatings, and adhesives containing aqueous dispersion of water-dispersible polymers for improving the mechanical properties of the sealants, coatings, and adhesives.

  • Patent number: 10385159
    Abstract: A water-based primer composition is particularly suitable for the pre-treatment of polycarbonate substrates, and has a component K1 having an aqueous epoxy resin dispersion, an aqueous polyester-polyurethane dispersion and an aqueous polyacrylate dispersion, and optionally a water-miscible organic solvent, and a second component K2 containing a water-dispersible curing agent based on isocyanate. The primers provide a strong bonding of subsequently applied adhesives to polycarbonate substrates, and permit a processing with a significant reduction in VOC emissions and the prevention of the occurrence of stress-cracks.

  • Patent number: 8404304
    Abstract: The invention relates to the use of a one-component aqueous polyurethane dispersion composition (PD) as a primer for the adhesion of plastic films (KF) by means of an aqueous one-component polyurethane dispersion adhesive (DK). The aqueous polyurethane dispersion composition (PD) comprises a polyurethane (P1) and carbodiimide groups and/or carboxyl groups, and the polyurethane dispersion adhesive (DK) comprises a polyurethane (P2) and carbodiimide groups, and carboxyl groups such that the aqueous polyurethane dispersion composition (PD) and the aqueous polyurethane dispersion adhesive (DK) react with one another in a polyaddition reaction when heated to a temperature of 50° C. or more. The invention also relates to primer-coated plastic films, to composite bodies produced therefrom and to methods for the production thereof.
