Polyurethanes derived from non-fluorinated or partially fluorinated polymers

A method of preparing a polymer compound comprising

• (i) reacting (a) at least one compound selected from Formula (IV)
• with (b) at least one compound selected from Formula (V)
• (ii) optionally reacting at least one additional ethylenically unsaturated monomer;
• (iii) subsequently reacting the product of step (i) or (ii) with at least one diisocyanate or polyisocyanate;
• and
• (iv) optionally reacting at least one isocyanate-reactive compound during step (iii) or following step (iii);
• wherein
• R3 is selected from H or a C1 to C4 alkyl group;
• Q is C(O)O, C(O)NH, or a direct bond;
• D is a C1 to C6 linear or branched alkylene, an arylene group, or (CH2CH2O)n(CH(CH3)CH2O)m,
• J is H, OH, N(R5)2, C(O)OH, or SH;
• provided that J is H only when D is (CH2CH2O)n(CH(CH3)CH2O)m;
• R5 is H or a C1 to C6 alkyl;
• Y is selected from O, a substituted arylene group, or an unsubstituted arylene group;
• A is a linear or branched C1 to C10 alkylene group;
• w is 0 or 1;
• v is 0 or 1;
• y is 0 or 1;
• provided that w+y is at least 1;
• if w is 0 then Y is a substituted or unsubstituted arylene group;
• and if Y is O then v is 1;
• X is the residue of a cyclic or acyclic sugar alcohol which is substituted with at least one —R1, —C(O)R1, —(CH2CH2O)n(CH(CH3)CH2O)mR2, —(CH2CH2O)n(CH(CH3)CH2O)mC(O)R1, or mixtures thereof;
• where the cyclic or acyclic sugar alcohol is selected from a saccharide, reduced sugar, aminosaccharide, aldonic acid, or aldonic acid lactone;
• wherein
• each n is independently 0 to 20;
• each m is independently 0 to 20;
• m+n is greater than 0;
• each R1 is independently a linear or branched alkyl group having 5 to 29 carbons optionally comprising at least 1 unsaturated bond;
• and
• each R2 is independently H, a linear or branched alkyl group having 6 to 30 carbons optionally comprising at least 1 unsaturated bond, or mixtures thereof.
