Abstract
In this paper, three bio-based unsaturated polyesters were synthesized from itaconic acid and different diols which could be derived from renewable resources. Their chemical structures were confirmed by FT-IR, 1H NMR and acid value as well as hydroxyl value. Waterborne UV curable networks based on these polyesters were manufactured and their mechanical properties, thermal stability and coating properties including pencil hardness, flexibility, adhesion, water resistance and solvent resistance were investigated. Results showed that the UV-cured polyester coatings exhibited high hardness, good water resistance and solvent resistance. The coatings reported in this paper combined the merits of bio-based materials, UV-curing process and water distribution.
