Antistatic and Antibacterial Two-Component Waterborne Polyurethane Coating

Hydroxyl acrylate emulsion was prepared firstly by the semicontinuous seeded emulsion polymerization, and then adding polyaniline (PANI)/Cu/ZrO2 ternary nanocomposites, two-component waterborne polyurethane (2 K WPU) composite coatings with antistatic and antibacterial properties were obtained by mixing the emulsion with hydrophilic modified polyisocyanate. The structure and morphology of the PANI/Cu/ZrO2 were observed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and X-ray diffractometer. The thermal, antistatic, antibacterial, anticorrosion, and mechanical properties of the 2 K WPU composite coatings were determined. The results showed that the addition of the ternary nanocomposites increased the antistatic, antibacterial, anticorrosion, and mechanical properties of the 2 K WPU coating. The initial decomposition temperature increased from 200 to 225°C, and the tensile strength increased by 44.4
