With isocyanate,polyether polyol and dimethylol propionic acid(DMPA) as main raw materials,the waterborne polyurethane(WPU) prepolymer was synthesized.The waterborne polyurethane modified by acrylate(PUA) was prepared through the steps of a prescribed procedure,such as extending chain,crosslinking and hybridization of acrylate.The results showed that the waterborne PUA had dual advantages of polyurethane(PU) and acrylate,good low-temperature film-forming and combination properties,lower cost and VOC content.The main properties of wood coating prepared by PUA met standard of HG/T 36 082-1999.
