Epoxidized Polyurethaneamide and Polyesteramide as Petroleum Pipeline Coatings
Linseed oil fatty acids were epoxidized by peracetic acid, then reacted with diethanolamine to give epoxidized hydroxy ethyl linseed oil fatty acid amide (I). This amide was rejected with toluene diisocyanate to produce epoxidized polyurethane-amide (II). Component I was also reacted with phthalic anhydride to give epoxidized polyesteramide (III). Resins II and III were evaluated as coating materials. The results obtained were compared with commercial epoxy resin, and show that resins IT and III may be suitable to use as petroleum pipeline coatings.
