双组分柔性聚氨酯涂层被用作许多汽车塑料应用的保护和美观涂层。调整涂层的柔韧性以匹配塑料的柔韧性，允许涂层塑料保持未涂层塑料的抗冲击性。聚氨酯化学的新发展使涂料的VOCS比传统的柔性聚氨酯低得多。这些低挥发性有机化合物、柔性聚氨酯涂料还表现出改善的室温可抛光性。

TWO-COMPONENT, FLEXIBLE POLYURETHANE COATINGS ARE USED AS PROTECTIVE AND AESTHETIC COATINGS FOR MANY AUTOMOTIVE PLASTIC APPLICATIONS. ADJUSTING THE COATING FLEXIBILITY TO MATCH THE FLEXIBILITY OF THE PLASTIC ALLOWS THE COATED PLASTIC TO RETAIN THE IMPACT RESISTANCE OF THE UNCOATED PLASTIC. NEW DEVELOPMENTS IN POLYURETHANE CHEMISTRY ALLOW THE FORMULATION OF COATINGS WITH MUCH LOWER VOCS THAN CONVENTIONAL FLEXIBLE POLYURETHANES. THESE LOW VOC, FLEXIBLE, POLYURETHANE COATINGS ALSO EXHIBIT IMPROVED ROOM TEMPERATURE POLISHABILITY.
