The present invention discloses polyurethane dispersions based on aliphatic isocyanates which form hard coatings wherein the coatings also have good solvent resistant properties. The enhanced properties of the coatings are achieved by including from 1 to 8 weight percent of a high functional polyol in the polyol formulation for producing the dispersions.
