Abstract

Chemical modification of Schiff base epoxy resins involves introduction of waste PET degradation products into a synthesis reaction between N,N’-bis(2-hydroxybenzylidene)-4,4’-oxydianiline and epichlorohydrin or introduction of a flexibility spacer between the mesogenic units in a reaction with epichlorohydrin. This provides the resins with much lower glass transition temperatures. All used Schiff bases are the derivatives of 2-hydroxybenzaldehyde. Synthesized epoxy resins were used as a component of binder of new organic coatings. Xylene-based solution of polyamide based on dimerized fatty acid and polyamines and poly(oxypropylene diamine) were used as a hardener for the synthesized and commercial epoxy resins at room temperatures. Physical and mechanical properties of coatings based on new epoxy resins were determined. Results were compared with those for one selected commercial epoxy resin. The results of investigations prove that coatings based on new epoxy resins have good elasticity, impact resistance, and their adhesion to the substrate is comparable or even better than that of coatings based on the widely used commercial epoxy resin.
