A polyisocyanate mixture which has blocked isocyanate groups and an average NCO-functionality, based on reversibly blocked isocyanate groups, of 2.0 to 2.6, and comprises the reaction product, converted into the salt form by the at least partial neutralization of the incorporated carboxyl groups, of
- i) at least one organic diisocyanate having a molecular weight of 168 to 300 with
- ii) at least one monofunctional blocking agent for isocyanate groups,
- iii) at least one monobasic or dibasic hydroxycarboxylic acid,
- iv) 1 to 15 wt. %, based on the weight of component i), of at least one dihydric to hexahydric alcohol having a molecular weight of 62 to 182 and
- v) 50 to 500 wt. %, based on the weight of component i), of at least one diol having a molecular weight of 350 to 950 and containing ester groups.
