A polyurethane composition is provided. The polyurethane composition comprises one polyisocyanate component comprising at least one aromatic polyisocyanate compound and/or isocyanate end-capped prepolymer formed by the reaction of said at least one aromatic polyisocyanate compound and at least one first polyol; at least one second polyol; and a crosslinker having at least one nitrogen atom and at least one secondary and/or tertiary hydroxyl group. The polyurethane product prepared by using the polyurethane composition can achieve improved operation time, aging resistance, weathering resistance, color stability, processability, and storage stability. A method for preparing the polyurethane product and a method for improving the performance property of the polyurethane product are also provided.

A polyurethane elastomer, e.g., for use in polyurethane mats, includes the reaction product of an isocyanate component that includes at least one isocyanate and an isocyanate-reactive component that includes (a) a first polyol component including from 40 wt % to 90 wt % of at least one polyether polyol having an average hydroxyl functionality that is greater than 2.5 and a number average molecular weight from 300 g/mol to 1,500 g/mol; (b) a second polyol component including from 2 wt % to 20 wt % of at least one ethylene oxide capped polyoxypropylene-polyoxyethylene polyol having an average hydroxyl functionality greater than 1.5 and less than 4.0, a number average molecular weight from 4,000 g/mol to 6,000 g/mol, and from 60% to 85% of a primary hydroxyl group content; and (c) a third polyol component including from 1 wt % to 20 wt % of at least one polyoxypropylene polyol having an average hydroxyl functionality greater than 1.5 and less than 4.0 and a number average molecular weight from 300 g/mol to 1,500 g/mol.

In a coating agent obtained by water-dispersing a polyurethane resin, the polyurethane resin is a secondary reaction product of an isocyanate group-terminated prepolymer and a chain extender. The isocyanate group-terminated prepolymer is a primary reaction product of a polyisocyanate component containing a xylylene diisocyanate and/or a hydrogenated xylylene diisocyanate, and an active hydrogen group-containing component containing a short chain diol having 2 to 6 carbon atoms and an active hydrogen compound having a hydrophilic group; and the viscosity at 25° C. of the coating agent is 50 mPa.Math.s or more.
