Abstract
Fluorinated polyurethanes and methods of making the same are provided. The fluorinated polyurethanes are useful for making polyurethane coating compositions for use in aerospace and other applications. The method includes a 'split process' by which a hydroxypolyalkylenoxy derivative of a perfluoropolyoxyalkane is separately reacted with isocyanate to produce an isocyanate-terminated compound. The isocyanate-terminated compound is then reacted with an emulsifier to produce an acid- and hydroxyl-functional compound. The acid- and hydroxyl-functional compound is then reacted with isocyanate to form an acid-functional, isocyanate-terminated compound. The acid-functional, isocyanate-terminated compound is then reacted with at least one polyol to produce a higher molecular weight, acid- and hydroxyl-functional compound. Finally, the acid functional groups of the high molecular weight, acid- and hydroxyl-functional compound are neutralized to form a fluoro-urethane salt which is dispersed in water. The resulting fluorinated polyurethane can be used to prepare a polyurethane coating composition.
