Two-component polyurethane flame-retardant coatings were prepared by blending chlorine-containing modified polyesters (DCAOs) and polyisocyanate. DCAOs used were synthesized by polycondensation of dichloroacetic acid, a flame-retardant aliphatic carboxylic acid, with 1,4-butanediol, trimethylolpropane, and adipic acid. The content of dichloroacetic acid was varied in 10, 20, and 30 wt % for the polycondensation reaction. Various physical properties of these new flame-retardant coatings were comparable to nonflame-retardant coatings. They showed desirable properties for flame-retardant coatings such as rapid drying and 8-10 hours of pot-life. Coatings with 30 wt % dichloroacetic acid were not fired by the vertical burning test.
