Abstract
The exploration of reprocessability and high-adhesion biomass polymer coatings is in line with the concept of green materials and is conducive to energy conservation and environmental protection. Here, a series of novel recyclable tung oil–based polymer coatings based on dual cross-linked dynamic covalent networks were reported. Tung oil polymerized maleic anhydride (TOA) was firstly prepared and further reacted with furfuryl alcohol. Then tung oil-polymerized maleic furanol ester (TOAFA) containing reactive conjugated double bond and carboxyl groups was prepared. FTIR and 1H NMR demonstrated the reactive monomer TOAFA was successfully synthesized. Then TOAFA was cross-linked with bismaleimide and different epoxy resins to fabricate target polymer networks based on dynamic Diels-Alder(D-A) bonds and dynamic transesterification. The shape memory, reprocessing, and mechanical and thermal stability of the copolymerized systems with different crosslinking states were investigated. The coating performances were characterized with solvent resistance, adhesion strength, hardness and glossiness tests. It was found that the dynamic D-A covalent bonds were perfectly combined with transesterification in the polymerization systems. The copolymerized systems possessed excellent thermal stability and mechanical properties. The rigid and flexible properties of the polymer networks can be controlled by adjusting the component weight ratios and the type of epoxy resin in the polymerization system. The rigid polymerization system had the highest tensile strength of 28 MPa, and its elongation at break was up to 57 % of the flexible polymerization system. Coating adhesion test showed the adhesion property reached level 1. The polymer coatings displayed excellent solvent corrosion resistance, and relative high gloss. The polymer networks also showed certain reprocessing performance and excellent shape memory effect.
