Disclosed herein is a coating composition obtained by mixing a resin and/or hardener; a sagging control agent (SCA) reactive to resin and/or hardener; and a catalyst. Further disclosed herein are methods of preparing 1K and 2K coating compositions and using the coating compositions in an automotive to form a clearcoat.

The present invention relates to a polyurethane elastomer obtainable by reacting a polyol and an isocyanate wherein the polyol comprises a) at least one dimer fatty residue selected from a dimer fatty diacid residue, a dimer fatty diol residue and a dimer fatty diamine residue; and b) at least one furan dicarboxylic acid residue. The invention also relates to a polyol for making the polyurethane elastomer, the use of the polyol and a method of making the polyurethane.

The present invention relates to a polyurethane dispersion comprising particles of a polyurethane dispersed in a dispersing medium, wherein the polyurethane is obtainable by reacting a polyol and an isocyanate, wherein the polyol comprises at least one dimer fatty residue selected from a dimer fatty diacid residue, a dimer fatty diol residue and a dimer fatty diamine residue; and at least one furan dicarboxylic acid residue. The invention also relates to a coating composition comprising the polyurethane dispersion, a polyol for making the polyurethane dispersion, the use of the polyol and a method of making the polyurethane.

The invention relates to rosin-based polyurethane resins derived from hydroxylated fatty polyesters modified with rosin, where the polyesters are bio-based, The invention also relates to aqueous dispersions of these resins, and the use of these resins in aqueous coatings.
