Design and synthesis of bio-based epoxidized alkyd resin for anti-corrosive coating application

Sustainable smart anti-corrosion coating materials derived from vegetable oil derivatives: a review

Sustainable development is a critical concern in this fast-paced technological world. Therefore, it is essential to employ renewable resources to move towards sustainable development goals (SDGs). The polyols attained from renewable resources, including lignin, chitosan, vegetable oils, cellulose, etc. and the polymers derived from them have attracted the attention of the majority of researchers, both in academia and industry. The development of bio-based polymers from vegetable oils start emerging with different properties to generate a value-added system. This review will give an impression to readers about how coatings generated from vegetable oils can find a way towards better protective properties against corrosion either by using fillers or by using molecular structure modifications in the system, thus covering a range of vegetable oil-based self-healing polymers and their application in anti-corrosion coatings.

Properties and Corrosion Resistance Mechanism of a Self-Healing Propane-1,2,3-Triol-Loaded Polysulfone Microcapsule Coating Loaded with Epoxy Resin

Propane-1,2,3-triol-loaded polysulfone (PSF) microcapsules were prepared by the solvent evaporation method. The particle size of the microcapsules is about 140 μm. The shell wall thickness is about 17 μm approximately. The microcapsules have high thermal stability and antiwear performance. The self-healing coating was prepared by adding the prepared capsule into the epoxy resin coating. After electrochemical and corrosion immersion experiments, the resistance modulus of the coating added to the microcapsules was higher than the others in a 3.5 wt % NaCl corrosion solution, and it had the lowest corrosion current density, so the self-healing microcapsule coatings showed excellent healing ability and corrosion inhibition function for microcracks. This was attributed to the formation of a hydrophobic film after propane-1,2,3-triol was released from the damaged microcapsules.

MODIFICATION OF ALKYD RESINS WITH FUNCTIONALIZED DIENE LIQUID RUBBERS TO CREATE POLYMER COATINGS WITH IMPROVED PROPERTIES

Modification of existing paints and varnishes based on alkyd and melamine alkyd resins as well as creation of new film formers with the help of functionalized oligomers in order to improve the properties of materials during their operation was carried out. Liquid oligobutadiene rubber with end hydroxyl groups, HTPB trend mark was used . Pentaphthalic varnish PF-060 and melamine-formaldehyde resin K-421-02 was modified by triisocyanate oligobutadiene rubber based on trimethylolpropane and isophorone diisocyanate resin in different ratios. Analysis of the FTIR spectra of the developed paints and varnishes showed that the process of polymerization in a thin film in air forms a spatially crosslinked polymer and passes through the stage of formation of branched soluble polymers, followed by copolymerization of components with oxygen and formation of structured solid polymer. The optimal content of rubber in the modified paints and varnishes was estimated. For alkyd varnish PF-060 it equals 10 wt.% and for melamine-formaldehyde resin K-421-02 is in the range 7-10 wt.%. Addition of triisocyanate accelerates the drying process of coatings on air, high values of surface hardness, adhesion, resistance to bending and water absorption were also received. Developed modified paints and varnishes are characterized by increased viability, shelf life of more than 6 months, homogeneity. Proposed scheme allows to obtain transparent coatings with high physical and mechanical characteristics and can be recommended for practical use in various coating technologies.
