The invention relates to an aqueous polyurethane dispersion U comprising at least two aqueously dispersed polyurethanes whereof at least one is an aqueously dispersible polyurethane U1 having a mass-average molar mass Mw1 of at least 10 kg/mol, and at least one is an aqueously dispersible polyurethane U2 having a mass-average molar mass Mw2 of less than 10 kg/mol, a process for the preparation thereof, and a method of use thereof.

Aqueous polyurethane dispersion

The invention relates to an aqueously dispersible polyurethane having a specific amount of substance of hydroxyl groups, &#x2014;OH, of at least 0.6 mol/kg, and additionally satisfying at least two of the following conditions: a) a degree of branching measured as specific amount of substance of tertiary and/or quaternary aliphatic carbon atoms of from 0.01 mol/kg to 0.5 mol/kg, b) a specific amount of urea groups &#x3e;N&#x2014;CO&#x2014;N&#x3c; of from 0.8 mol/kg to 2 mol/kg, and c) a specific amount of substance of hydroxyl groups, &#x2014;OH, of from 1 mol/kg to 4 mol/kg, wherein in each case the specific amount of substance is based on the mass of the polyurethane, a process for the preparation thereof, and a method of use thereof.

Aqueously dispersible polyurethane

The invention relates to an aqueously dispersible polyurethane having a specific amount of silicon n(Si)/m(PU) of from 0.05 mol/kg to 1 mol/kg, and a specific amount of urea groups, n(U)/m(PU), &#x3e;N&#x2014;CO&#x2014;N&#x3c; of from 0.8 mol/kg to 2 mol/kg, wherein in each case the specific amount of substance is calculated as the ratio of the amount of substance n of the entity under consideration, to the mass m(PU) of the polyurethane, to a process for the preparation thereof, and a method of use thereof.
