Water based PU is a new type of polyurethane system that uses water instead of organic solvents as the dispersion medium. Water based PU uses water as a solvent, which has the advantages of no pollution, safety and reliability, excellent mechanical properties, good compatibility, and easy modification. It not only overcomes the defects of low solid content of traditional solvent-based PU (generally 15%-30%), serious environmental pollution and harm to human health during use, but also avoids the great waste caused by the use of large amounts of organic solvents. Therefore, the environmental protection performance of products has obvious advantages in the face of current global appeals.
