Soft feel coatings applied over plastic substrates are widely used in automotive interiors and consumer products.These coatings provide luxurious look and leather-like texture to hard plastic surfaces.Traditionally,two-component solvent-based polyurethanes have been used in these applications.In recent years,waterborne polyurethanes formulations with lower volatile organic compounds have become the choice for soft feel coatings.In this paper,the development of soft feel coating with waterborne polyurethane technology will be presented.The performance of soft-feel coatings based on waterborne polyisocyanates with polyester,acrylic polyols and/or polyurethane dispersions will be discussed.
