Abstract
The present invention relates to aqueous polyurethane-urea dispersions which are film forming at temperatures of .ltoreq.20.degree. C. in the absence of film forming additives, dry at room temperature to yield films having a hardness according to DIN 53 157 (Konig pendulum hardness) of .gtoreq.100 seconds, in which the polyurethane-ureas have a urethane group content (calculated as --NH--CO--O--, molecular weight 59) of 7 to 20 wt. %, and a urea group content (calculated as -NH-CO-N, molecular weight 57) of 5 to 18 wt. %, and contain 15-70 wt. %, based on resin solids, of structural units prepared by incorporating 1-methyl-2,4- and/or -2,6-diisocyanatocyclohexane in the form of urethane and/or urea groups. The present invention also relates to a process for the production of these aqueous polyurethane-urea dispersions and to their use in coating compositions.
