Abstract

The invention relates to new, hydrolysis-stable, aqueous polyurethane-polyurea dispersions based on polycarbonate-polyols, to a process for preparing them and to their use in coating materials.

Claims (24)

1 . An aqueous polyurethane-polyurea dispersion comprising the synthesis components:

I.1) one or more polyisocyanates,

I.2) one or more polycarbonate polyols having number-average molecular weights of 1000 to 3000 g/mol, having a hydroxyl number of 18 to 56 mg KOH/g, and an OH functionality of 1.8 to 2.2,

I.3) one or more compounds having molecular weights of 62 to 400 g/mol and possessing in total two or more hydroxyl and/or amino groups,

I.4) optionally one or more compounds possessing a hydroxyl or amino group,

I.5) one or more isocyanate-reactive, ionically or potentially ionically hydrophilicizing compounds, and

I.6) optionally one or more isocyanate-reactive, nonionically hydrophilicizing compounds,

wherein the dispersion contains 60% to 90% by weight of component I.2), based on the total weight of the synthesis components; and with the proviso that the polycarbonate polyol is not based on polytetramethylene glycol polyols.

2 . An aqueous polyurethane-polyurea dispersion according to claim 1 , comprising 5% to 40% by weight of component I.1), 60% to 90% by weight of the sum of components I.2), 0.5% to 20% by weight of the sum of compounds I.3) and I.4), 0.1% to 5% by weight of component I.5), and 0% to 20% by weight of component I.6),wherein the sum of 1.5 and I.6) is between 0.1% to 25% by weight and the sum of all the components add up to 100% by weight.

3 . A process for preparing the aqueous polyurethane-polyurea dispersion according to claim 1 , comprising:

a) reacting:

I.1) one or more polyisocyanates,

I.2) one or more polycarbonate polyols having number-average molecular weights of 1000 to 3000 g/mol, having a hydroxyl number of 18 to 56 mg KOH/g, and an OH functionality of 1.8 to 2.2,

I.3) one or more compounds having molecular weights of 62 to 400 g/mol and possessing in total two or more hydroxyl and/or amino groups,

I.4) optionally one or more compounds possessing a hydroxyl or amino group,

I.5) one or more isocyanate-reactive, ionically or potentially ionically hydrophilicizing compounds,

I.6) optionally one or more isocyanate-reactive, nonionically hydrophilicizing compounds

such that an isocyanate-functional prepolymer free of urea groups is prepared, the molar ratio of isocyanate groups to isocyanate-reactive groups being 1.0 to 3.5

b) dispersing the reaction products in water; and

c) before, during or after dispersing in water, subjecting the remaining isocyanate groups to amino-functional chain extension or chain termination, wherein the equivalent ratio of isocyanate-reactive groups of the compounds used for chain extension to free isocyanates groups of the prepolymer is between 40% to 150%.

4 . Coating materials comprising the polyurethane-polyurea dispersion according to claim 1 .

5 . A process for producing coated substrates comprising applying a coating material according to claim 4 to a substrate.

6 . The process according to claim 5 , wherein the substrate is selected from the group consisting of textiles and leather.

7 . Substrates coated with coating materials according to claim 4 .
