Abstract

Water-dispersible polyurethane prepolymers comprising one or more organic diisocyanates; a difunctional compound having a molecular weight of from about 250 to about 10,000 which is difunctionally reactive with the organic diisocyanate and which is free of side chain polyoxyalkylene units; and a dispersion diol which is difunctionally reactive with the organic diisocyanate and which contains side chain polyoxyalkylene units. Methods of preparation of the prepolymers and their use in aqueous polyurethane dispersions are also described.
