Natural oils are considered to be the most important genre of renewable sources. Jatropha curcas oil (JPO) based polyol is an alternative material that may possibly replac e petrochemical-based polyol for polyurethane coating material. Polyurethane was synthesized by reacting JPO-based polyol with isocyanate. To produce JPO-based polyol, JPO was first epoxidized to form epoxidized J. curcas oil (EJP), subsequently it was convert ed to polyol by the opening ring reaction with acrylic acid (AA) using triethylamine (TEA) as a catalyst. The JPO-based polyurethane film result ing from this study is compared with polyurethane film from commercial polyol for gloss, hardness, and adhesion quality. The result showed that the source of polyol ha s an influence on gloss, hardness, and adhesion of polyurethane film, but the differences with using isocyanate ha s less influence. Using visual observation, polyurethane film produced from L.OHV polyol, H.OHV polyol and commercial polyol have similar qualit ies .
