Abstract: A nail polish composition, in particular nail polish formulation, is disclosed which is based on a specific solvent-free aqueous polyurethane polymer dispersion, which is derived from at least one isocyanate-terminated ethylenically unsaturated polyurethane pre-polymer in a reactive diluent, after a chain extension reaction with a chain extender bearing isocyanate-reactive groups. The polyurethane pre-polymer comprises at least one (meth)acrylate functional group and at least one isocyanate functional group.

Abstract: A solvent-free aqueous curable polyurethane dispersion is derived from at least one isocyanate-terminated ethylenically unsaturated polyurethane pre-polymer in a reactive diluent. The polyurethane pre-polymer comprises at least one (meth)acrylate functional group and at least one isocyanate functional group. Methods for making a solvent-free aqueous polyurethane dispersion, curable compositions comprising the dispersion and resulting cured products are also disclosed.

Abstract: A curable aqueous polyurethane dispersion is formed by reacting a polyol component with a polyisocyanate. The polyol component comprises a1) at least one non-ionic polyol, a2) at least one polyol bearing at least one ionic or potentially ionic group comprising an acid group or salt thereof and a3) at least one ethylenically unsaturated monoalcohol or polyol. The polyol component contains carbon atoms from renewable resources. A method for making the curable aqueous polyurethane dispersion, uses of the aqueous polyurethane dispersion, cured polyurethanes and nail polish formulations comprising aqueous polyurethane dispersions are also disclosed.

Abstract: A curable aqueous polyurethane dispersion is formed by reacting a polyol a) component with a polyisocyanate b) in excess to form a polyurethane pre-polymer which is neutralized and dispersed before chain extending with a chain extender c) to form the final polyurethane polymer aqueous dispersion. The polyol a) component comprises a1) at least one non-ionic polyol, a 2) at least one polyol bearing at least one ionic or potentially ionic group comprising an acid group or salt thereof and a3) at least one ethylenically unsaturated monoalcohol or polyol.
