History of Polyurea
Gen 1: Aromatic Polyurea
The 1st generation of polyurea coatings emerged in the early 1990s. These coatings were characterized by their extremely fast reaction times, which posed challenges in terms of application and adhesion. Early polyurea formulations often suffered from poor adhesion and limited raw material availability, leading to a higher incidence of coating failures
Gen 2 - Aliphatic Polyurea
By the early 2000s, the 2nd generation of polyurea coatings had been developed. These coatings featured significant improvements in hardness, chemical resistance, and reduced volatile organic compounds (VOCs). The advancements in raw materials, such as the introduction of secondary diamines, allowed for better control over the gel times, enhancing the adhesion and overall performance of the coatings
Gen 3 - Polyaspartic Polyurea
Polyaspartic polyurea is the 3rd generation of polyurea, it’s an aliphatic polyurea coating derived from the reaction of an aliphatic polyisocyanate with an aliphatic diamine (specifically a polyaspartic ester). It is essentially a slowed-down version of polyurea, allowing for easier application while retaining many beneficial properties.
