Major Applications of Polyurethane (PU) Coatings

Polyurethane systems are widely used in a variety of coatings (outdoor and/or topcoat) applications. This is because they have the ability to impart desireable properties in coatings. Be it solvent-based PU, water-based PU, or 100% solids PU coatings, it is one of the versatile chemistries today with a wide range of applications.

Overview

Key Applications

Polyurethane (PU) coatings are widely used across all industries as they have the ability to impart various properties. These include:

Apart from their decorative aspects, these systems are extraordinarily resistant to chemicals and have very good mechanical properties. In addition, aliphatic polyurethanes possess high weather resistance. The main applications of polyurethane coatings include:


Wood and concrete architectural PU coatings (floors, pavements, airport hangar floors, etc.)
Polyurethane coatings for automotive finishes (topcoats, clear coats)
PU Resins in Industrial and maintenance coatings
