Environmental considerations are increasing the research and development of waterborne polymeric systems for many different applications, particularly as coatings. In this dissertation, non-polluting formulations based on waterborne polyurethanes (WPU), with 40% solids content, were synthesized in the absence of organic solvents. The monomers (polyols) employed were block copolymers of ethylene glycol and propylene glycol (EG-b-PG), with 25% of EG hydrophilic segments, poly(propylene glycol) (PPG), dimethylolpropionic acid (DMPA), isophorone diisocyanate (IPDI) and hydrazine (HYD), as chain extender. The ratio between the number of equivalent-grams of isocyanate and hydroxyl groups (NCO/OH) and the ratio between the equivalent-grams of PPG and (EG-b-PG) were varied. It was observed that the incorporation of high quantities of the copolymer resulted in gels instead of dispersions. The average particle size and the viscosity of the resins were determined. Thermal and mechanical resistances and water absorption of cast films produced from the dispersions were evaluated. The chemical structure of the chains was characterized by infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The waterborne polyurethanes showed to be suitable as coatings for wood, metals and glass
