BEETAFIN® - Aqueous Polyurethane Dispersions

Introduction

BIP manufacture a range of aqueous polyurethane dispersions for use in a wide variety of applications. They consist of poly(urethane-urea) polymers that are dispersed in water. These dispersions are environmentally friendly materials with no unreacted isocyanate groups and make a good choice for the formulation of compliant coatings for many different substrates.

The unique chemistry of polyurethanes means that it is possible to achieve large variations in properties by careful choice of the type and relative proportions of the monomers used. They are available in a variety of film hardness, can be readily blended with other water soluble polymers to optimise final film performance, application properties and cost.

Advantages

• Fast dry, ease of film formation
• Excellent adhesion to various substrates
• Low volatile organic content
• Non-flammable solution
• Outstanding flexibility and impact resistance
• Excellent abrasion resistance
• Compatible with other aqueous monomers and polymers
