Polyurethane Dispersions

Water-based Polyurethane dispersions (PUDs) are a rapidly growing segment of the polyurethane coating industry due to environmental legislations such as the clean air act and also due to technological advances, that has made them an effective substitute for the solvent-based analogs. They are versatile and environmentally friendly coating materials that are available in a wide range of hardness and solid content. Their zero to low volatile organic content facilitate their formulation into a compliant coating for many different substrates. Their versatility and wide range of superior properties, such as abrasion resistance, impact strength and low temperature flexibility are the driving forces to their continuously expanding usage in many applications.
