Abstract

A series of waterborne polyurethane-acrylate (WPUA) dispersions were prepared with isophorone diisocyanate (IPDI), polyether polyol (NJ-210), dimethylol propionic acid (DMPA), hydroxyethyl methyl acrylate (HEMA), different proportions of methyl methacrylate (MMA) and ethyl acrylate (MMA and EA) and initiating agent by the emulsion co-polymerization. The structures, thermal properties and morphology of WPUA films were characterized with FT-IR, DSC, SEM and AFM. Performances of the dispersions and films were studied by means of apparent viscidity, particle size and polydispersity, surface tension and mechanical properties. The obtained WPUA have great potential application such as coatings, leather finishing, adhesives, sealants, plastic coatings and wood finishes.
