Compared with water-soluble acrylic resin, the phase inversion of 2K-WPU occurs at lower water content. It is indicated by TEM that 2K-WPU parti-cles show a core-shell structure, in which HDI biuret is encapsulated by hydrophilic acrylic resin. 2K-WPU emulsion with HDI biuret has larger particle size and narrower distribution index, while for 2K-WPU emulsion with HDI iso-cyanurate, the latex not only has large particle size, but also has two-peak distribution. FTIR shows that the reaction be-tween HDI biuret and acrylic resin can complete in 12h. In addition, studies on effect of composition of acrylic resin on performance of 2K-WPU show that narrowing the polar difference between water-soluble acrylic resin and HDI biuret and improving the miscibility of two components are the key to prepare the transparent and high gloss films with high crosslinking density.展开更多

During the macrorheological measurement on a rotary rheometer, evaporation of solvent cannot be totally excluded, which has an influence on the reliability of rheological results. So, the linear oscillatory frequency sweep results (storage and loss modulus versus frequency) and steady shear results (viscosity versus shear rate) got from the rotary rheometer measurement are only used for qualitative analysis. As the evaporation of solvent can be neglected during microrheological measurements on a diffusing wave spectroscope (DWS), the results of storage modulus (G3 and loss modulus (G'~) versus frequency are more credible than the results obtained from the rotary rheometer measurement. Thus, the results of G' and G" versus frequency from DWS measurements are used for quantitative analysis in this work. The G' for both of the waterborne PU paints are larger than G" at low frequency and that is opposite at high frequency in the experimental angular frequency range. The values of modulus at same frequency and viscosity at low shear rate for the two PU paints have apparent difference, which determines the difference of their application.展开更多
