Push PUDs further with Priplast™ polyols

Up to 100% bio-based polyester polyols for durable, high-adhesion, flexible waterborne PUDs

Discover the science behind Priplast™ polyester polyol technology in our downloadable presentation. Based on non-crystalline C36 dimerized fatty acids, Priplast polyols feature a unique molecular architecture designed to significantly enhance the performance of waterborne polyurethane dispersions (PUDs).

Unlock our technical presentation which demonstrates the performance of Priplast polyols in PUDs systems and the formulation compatibility:

  • Can increase bio-content up to 66% in the final formulation
  • Despite their hydrophobic nature, stable emulsions can be made with particle sizes of 50-150 nm, freeze-thaw stability, and translucent appearance
  • Suitable with both acetone and prepolymer processes

Priplast polyols in waterborne polyurethane dispersions for wood coatings

Customer-proven performance

  • Enhanced pigment wetting — less or no dispersing agents required
  • Improved substrate wetting — better adhesion to plastic substrates, better grain enhancements in wood varnishes due to deeper resin penetration
  • Hydrophobicity — faster water flash-off, superior 'in-can' stability
  • Great flexibility, even after post crosslinking — for superior chemical resistance on flexible substrates
