  • Aqueous polyurethane dispersions which can be hardened with mit UV-radiation and thermally, and use thereof
    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.

  • Radiation-curable formulations based on aliphatic, urethane-functional prepolymers having ethylenically unsaturated double bonds
    Patent number: 6458459
    Abstract: Radiation-curable formulations comprising i) at least one aliphatic, urethane-functional prepolymer which on average has at least two ethylenically unsaturated double bonds, ii) at least one monofunctional ester of an &agr;,&bgr;-ethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acid with a monofunctional alkanol which has a saturated, carbocyclic or heterocyclic structural element, and iii) if desired, a di- or polyfunctional ester of an &agr;,&bgr;-ethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acid with an aliphatic di- or polyol are used to coat substrates.
