Abstract: Water-reducible single-component moisture-curing polyurethane coatings are disclosed. Water-reducible single-component moisture-curing polyurethane coatings have excellent surface properties with controlled surface imperfections and cure rapidly. Water-reducible single-component moisture-curing polyurethane coatings can be formulated with constituents minimizing or eliminating VOC content. The water-reducible single-component moisture-curing polyurethane coatings are suitable for use as protective and/or decorative coatings.

Abstract: The invention relates to a color pigmented moisture-curing polyurethane coating that cures to form a film having a matte finish, as well as methods of producing the coating. The coating is suitable for use as a protective and/or decorative coating. The coating comprises one or more specified color pigments, polyisocyanates, polyols, tertiary amines, and a matting agent or agents. The combination of constituents provide a finished form coating with highly controlled gloss and sheen characteristics. Additional optional ingredients may be added to the coating composition, including catalysts, ultraviolet light stabilizers, wetting agents, solvents, and agents to increase slip and flow.

Abstract: This invention relates to a new and useful color pigmented moisture curing polyurethane coating that has an adjustable drying time, as well as methods of producing the coating. The coating is suitable for use as a protective and/or decorative coating. The coating comprises one or more specified color pigments, polyisocyanates, polyols, tertiary amines, and blocked amines. The blocked amines, in conjunction with the tertiary amines, allow the coating to dry slowly once the coating has been applied, resulting in a defect free surface. Furthermore, an additional catalyst, comprising a metal catalyst may optionally be added to the coating immediately prior to use in order to speed up the rate of drying of the coating, allowing for very precise control of the drying speed of the coating. Additional optional ingredients may be added to the coating composition, including ultraviolet light stabilizers, wetting agents, solvents, and agents to increase slip and flow.

Abstract: This invention relates to a new and useful process for color pigmented moisture curing polyurethanes. The process is comprised of preparing a slurry of specified color pigments, solvents, and additives to which is added a specified quantity of a chosen monomeric diisocyanate. A polyol (or other suitable hydrogen donor) is added to the slurry and the monomeric diisocyanate. Pigments are then dispersed in the aforesaid admixture. To the aforesaid admixture, called a color pigment dispersion, isocyanate prepolymers are added. The completed admixture results in a stable colored moisture curing (air drying) polyurethane for use as a protective and decorative coating.
