Abstract:

Epoxidized soybean oil (ESO), trimethylolpropane (TMP), phthalic anhydride (PA) and water-soluble monomer trimellitic anhydride (TMA) were used as the main raw materials to prepare water-soluble alkyd resin by alcoholysis, esterification and neutralization. With the static contact angle as the objective function, the synthesis conditions of water-soluble alkyd resin were optimized by the orthogonal experiment. The structure of the water-soluble alkyd resin was characterized. The results of Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) show that the water-soluble alkyd resin is successfully synthesized. The optimum conditions obtained by orthogonal test are as follows: the oil content is 40%; the alcohol excess is 1.2; the molar ratio of TMA to PA is 0.5∶1; the final acid value is controlled at 60-80 mg KOH/g. Through the transmittance testing and storage stability testing, the prepared water-soluble alkyd resin shows excellent water solubility and stability, indicating that epoxidized soybean oil can be used as the raw material for manufacture of waterborne alkyd coatings. The rotational rheological analysis shows that the water-soluble alkyd resin has good rheological properties and conforms to the pseudoplastic fluid. Esterification kinetics analysis shows that temperature has significant effect on the esterification reaction. With the increase of temperature, the reaction rate and conversion rate are significantly improved. The study on esterification kinetics finds that it conforms to the second-order reaction kinetics model, and the activation energy Ea of esterification reaction is 88.081 kJ/mol according to Arrhenius equation.
