Abstract
Synthesis and UV-curing of acrylated castor oil glycerides are described. Transesterification of castor oil with specific amounts of glycerol followed by conversion to castor oil acrylate esters lead to UV-curable binders with variable functionality per mass. The used raw materials are renewable, so that 100% bio-based resins can be obtained with this method. A possible purpose for these reactive binders is to balance the mechanical properties of hard radiation curable coatings.
