UV-curable acrylated coating from epoxidized palm oil

“…Epoxidised palm oil acrylate (EPOLA: acid value (AV) = 18.96 mg KOH/g, viscosity (μ)=825 cP (25°C), Mw (by GPC) = 2315 g/mol) was produced in Malaysian Nuclear Agency, Selangor Malaysia [3]. It was synthesized through acrylation of epoxidised palm oil (EPO).…”

“…Radiation curable acrylates can be derived by reacting epoxidised oils with acrylic acid. The acrylate was produced by the ring opening of oxirane oxygen group in the epoxidised vegetable oil and the acrylate group was then bonded to the opened epoxides ring [3][4]. The usage of epoxidised linseed oil, castor oil, and soybean oil has been intensively studied by previous researchers to produce radiation curable acrylate for application in the area of coating [5][6][7][8].…”

“…The potential application of EPOLA is as a radiation curable pressure sensitive adhesive (PSA) [9]. However, the curing speed, hardness, and gel content of the cured film are very low [3]. High curing speed as well as good compatibility with EPOLA were observed when monoacrylate monomer was used as a cross linker.…”
