epoxidation

This paper investigates the curing of biodegradable polymer films which were synthesized from soybean oil through the ultraviolet radiation and their stability against thermal degradation. In this study the epoxidation of soybean oil has been carried out via peracetic method. Further, an epoxy acrylate resin was synthesized from the epoxidized soybean oil (ESO) by using acrylic acid monomer. Triethylamine (TEA) and hydroquinone were used as a catalyst and inhibitor respectively.

Synthesis of cooligomers with epoxy groups was studied. They were synthesized by epoxidation of unsaturated petroleum resins obtained by heterogeneous catalytic oligomerization of liquid pyrolysis products С9 fraction. The degree of unsaturated bonds conversion and the selectivity of epoxidation process were calculated. The properties of epoxydized cooligomers were determined and analyzed. The structurization of synthesized products in the composition of composites with epoxy resin ED-20 was studied.
