  • Patent number: 6727341
    Abstract: A stable and high-solids aqueous dispersion of blocked isocyanates, containing auxiliary solvent, is prepared by (1) preparing a solution of a polyisocyanate mixture of from 20-70% by weight of a blocked, hydrophilically modified polyisocyanate (A) and from 30-80% by weight of a blocked, hydrophobic polyisocyanate (B) in an auxiliary solvent (G) and (2) adding water to this solution, with intensive mixing, in an amount which is such as to give a two-phase system comprising a disperse polyisocyanate phase and a continuous, aqueous phase containing auxiliary solvent. In a preferred embodiment of the invention dispersions are prepared which are virtually free from auxiliary solvent, by first adding a portion of water to the solution (1), substantially removing the auxiliary solvent with intensive mixing and then adding a second portion of water with intensive mixing to the mixture comprising the polyisocyanates (A) and (B) and the first portion of water.

  • Patent number: 6048926
    Abstract: A composition containing an unblocked monomeric diisocyanate finely dispersed an aqueous dispersion of at least one organic polyhydroxy compound. The composition may be used to prepare aqueously disperse two component polyurethane coatings where the diisocyanate functions as a curing agent and the polyhydroxy compound serves as a binder agent. In the composition, the ratio of hydroxyl groups in the polyhydroxy compound to the isocyanate groups in the diisocyanate is 0 5:1 to 5:1. The composition may be used to apply polyurethane coatings to substrates.
