Polyurethane dispersions (PUD) have diversified into a myriad of applications over the years. This has led to extensive research on both industrial and laboratory fronts as polyurethane dispersions provide liberty to interplay at the molecular level to diversify the properties of the product which has also led to the development of eco-friendly waterborne dispersions. Yet, waterborne PUDs are limited in their mechanical and physical properties as compared to solvent-based products. The incorporation of crosslinkers in the PUD further bolsters these properties thus improving water and solvent resistance. The incorporation of silanols increases solvent resistance and adhesion of the resultant PUD. In this work, a post crosslinking system based on the ketone-hydrazine mechanism was incorporated into the PUD thus providing the required structural reinforcement for construction application. The targeted application for this work is the use of PUDs for waterproofing.
