Despite its well established place in the Coatings, Adhesives, Sealant and Elastomer (CASE) sector, polyurethane chemistry is feeling the regulator’s grip tightening: Exposure limits for isocyanates are tightening, solvent-free alternatives are being sought after and many raw materials and additives are being banned. This creates demand for new technical solutions, in particular ones offering ultra-low-monomer hardeners or even isocyanate-free systems. VOC limits and penalties continue to drive high-solids and waterborne systems, with the usual trade-offs in viscosity, leveling, and cure. Raw-material variability and the introduction of bio-based raw materials offers new alternatives at the expense of simplicity, clarity and performance for many formulators.
