Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for preparing urethanes containing (meth)acryloyl groups that are suitable as binders for powder coatings by reacting a polyisocyanate component with a hydroxyl group-containing component that contains at least one compound additionally containing (meth)acryloyl groups in a melt of compounds containing (meth)acryloyl groups, which are crystalline in the solid state, and have a melting point of 30 to 100° C. and a dynamic viscosity at 111° C. of less than 10 Pa·s, at elevated temperature until the NCO content has dropped below 0.5 wt. %.

Abstract: The present invention relates to binders, which can be cured by free-radical polymerization initiated by UV light, and contain a) 10 to 90 parts by wt. of a polymer which contains, in chemically bound form, both ethylenically unsaturated groups and the reaction product of a resin containing abietic acid with not more than 50% of the OH groups of a polyfunctional alcohol having a molecular weight of less than 500, b) 10 to 90 parts by wt. of one or more mono- di-or oligoesters of (meth)acrylic acid having a molecular weight of less than 800 and c) optionally 0.1 to 10 parts by wt. of a photoinitiator component for the free-radical polymerization wherein the weights of a) and b) add up to 100. The present invention also relates to coating compositions containing these binders which are suitable for the production high-gloss coatings.

Abstract: The present invention relates to radiation curable aqueous polyurethane dispersions containing 0.05 to 20 wt. %, based on the weight of the non-aqueous constituents of the aqueous polyurethane dispersions, of 2,2-dimethyl-3-hydroxypropionic acid-(2,2-dimethyl-3-hydroxypropyl ester), (HPSNPG, calculated as MW 204.3). The invention also relates to substrates coated with these polyurethane dispersions, in particular to coated wood substrates with good grain enhancing properties.
