Synthesis and properties of UV-curable tung oil based resins via modification of Diels–Alder reaction, nonisocyanate polyurethane and acrylates

The performance of biodegradable tung oil coatings

“…In 2012, tung oil-based reactive diluents [15] and UV-curable tung oil [16] were introduced in alkyds. Since 2013, tung oil has been incorporated and studied in more advanced systems [17][18][19][20][21][22]. In these studies, the oil was used as an ingredient or a component of a coating system.…”

UV-curable acrylated coating from epoxidized palm oil

“…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]. Palm oil which is the major feedstock in Malaysia also has the potential to be the next renewable raw material substitute for radiation curable resins.…”

Preparation and properties of epoxy‐modified tung oil waterborne insulation varnish

“…30 The major constituent of tung oil is a glyceride composed of alpha-elaeostearic acid (cis-9, trans-11, trans-13-octadecatrienoic acid), 31 which can easily undergo Diels-Alder reaction with a dienophile. 30,[32][33][34] The highly unsaturated and conjugated triene system of tung oil makes it easily to be chemically modified. In the past research, Diels-Alder reaction had been successfully applied to synthesize acrylate tung oil resin, 35 tung oil-rosin adduct, 36 tung oil based alkyd, 33 and diacrylate-tung oil copolymers.…”
